Swift well all the deer would die if they weren't hunted and they should be way more upset at what big corporations are doing, not small businesses that have good practices.
PickedCeasar121 yes but you can’t say I don’t know how you’re offended, it’s obvious why they’re offended, they like animals that’s it. I hate it when people be such a dick just because someone thinks that way
@@xswiiftt If you can't handle that, imagine going to a butcher and bitching about it. You are setting yourself up to be outraged and its fucking hilarious.
Count me in...im from wisco,...sounds like a good place..like sincerely.....i like places that arejt franchises...they nake there food with so much more care and enthusiasm
I don’t know if it’s more common in other places but I haven’t seen many restaurants that serve deer meat. Maybe I just need to look for it. At any rate, yeah this restaurant sounds legit and you know the food is fresh, because, well, you know
@@riverotterluresericdenson9216 There is a vegan protest video where they break into a chicken farm. They are breaking the chickens out then one of the protestors hangs themselves on a machine hook and almost gets their head cut off. Someone turns the machine off just in time and gets them off the hook. I have tried finding the video but I can’t. Does anyone know the video?
You mean 90% of Stockholm's residents? Middle aged white people with a bicycle which costs as much as a good used car, talks about Greta Thunberg as if she's the new Jesus Christ, global warming and act in general like a pseudo Marxist even though they make 300K minimum a year?
He makes such a great point. If more people who eat meat actually experienced hunting and taking a life to feed yourself, people probably would have more respect for what we use. And Joe makes another great point about factory farming. These protestors are so backwards.
@@artisanrocky8496 they were blocking the entrance and protesting in front of his restaurant, yes they were trying to shut him down but made him more famous.
What the what he said isn’t wrong tho. You don’t know real problems until u know REAL PROBLEMS. These same people won’t give a shit about a deers life when their starving on a island with only one option of food
@@whatthe6532 yeah the "attitude and issues" that make him a much loved millionaire, while the only thing those idiots have going on in their life is harassing people and being hated for it
@@dirtybauer7022 I donut know where he got that number, but it's probably around that, considering the bread, vegetables and sauce are most of it all. So, yeah, 65% plant based seems accurate.
I live in Oklahoma and there is a town named Slaughterville. Several years back PETA came in and started to demand the town change name. The town is still called Slaughterville.
Lol, I grew up in OK, I've been thru there. It is a creepy name, probably someone's last name, which is also kinda unfortunate. I grew up near two little towns called Short and Long. 😁 Gotta love that smart ass sense of humor.
My husband basically did that to the ani-hunting New Yorkers that moved in behind us in rural Tennessee. We all live on multi acre properties and She would March up and down the property line yelling and banging on pots during deer season so Husband gutted his kill right in front of her.
because a corporation probably has the legal means to immediately sue every single protestor for extortion immediately and they know it so they aim the the small business that have almost no impact on animal cruelty. cowards.
@Wuanslm Also he never smoked (infact hated it and wished no German *would* smoke) and he never drank any alcohol as far as I know :P So yeah...Theres that
I do know a lad who’s vegan but not one of the extremist. He wears leather boots and stuff. He’s only vegan literally because of his specific health. I’m not sure what the issue is but it’s nothing to do with narcissism like the rest so there are vegans who have to be I suppose so it would be a bit out of order to fuck them over. I also know a lad who went vegan because he moved to America and the meat messed him up there. I dunno why the meat is different in America to Britain but it fucked him up and his wife he met over there was a vegetarian so I think he just thought fuck it why not. Plus I know a few Muslims wh9 don’t eat pork and the like. So if I went out with any of them then it wouldn’t be fair to punish them because they happen to have the same diet as mongs.
@@me5969 Meat in America sure is awfull but you can still buy a grass fed beef. Muslims just dont eat pork, they eat the rest of the meats. And there is no health reason to go vegan, only false science.
I’m a beef farmer in Oregon and we are what you would call ethical farmers, the last cow we butchered was eating grass and we just walked up to it like 5 feet away no feet whatsoever then just out like a light so yeah he had a good life very spoiled
@@fuzzy7644 It's quite expensive to contain large amounts of cattle on grass only, takes a lot of free, fertile and flat land for all this grass to grow evenly every season. Also in some cold or too dry areas it's just impossible to grow enough grass.
I’m a proud GenXer that grew up on the East Coast (part Bronx and part North Philly). I went to high school in North Philly and enjoyed eating cheesesteaks from Max’s. (Look up Max’s, as that is the best cheesesteak you’ll ever have.) (BTW, cheesesteaks originated in Philly. They are NOT “cheesesteak subs”, “Philly cheesesteaks,” “Philly sandwiches,” “Philly,” or any similar name. It is a “cheesesteak,” and anything by any other name is not worth eating.) When I was in graduate school in Chicago, my sister brought a Max’s cheesesteak to me when she visited. I ate the cheesesteak outside in an area where vegans were protesting meat consumption. One of the protesters tried to knock my cheesesteak out of my hand. When I stood up to warn her of a consequential @$$ whipping, she backed down when she saw a powerful 6’1 female. From that point onward, I never cared for vegans. They have no right to control what others eat. She was gonna get it big time if she f’d up my cheesesteak though.
Same. I'm semi vegetarian and I'd just go in there and order a vegetarian meal. Essentially they deserve it since they make an active effort for sustainable farming, which I think is extremely important.
two types of people that need mass extermination, vegans and cyclists. not the guy riding a bike tryna get to work, the assholes in there tights, with there blinking fucking light, that take up 3/4 of the road and only move 10 mph, yeah those guys can die.
see thats the difference.. You "eat a vegan diet" They are "Vegan". You dont make it an Identifying trait where they base their entire identity around it. Its a personal attack against them Or at least in their crazy brain it is
@@tbag6600 They aren't really vegan though. They just claim to be for the victim status they crave. They use animal products cut from the same dead animals that meat eaters use.
I intend to find out when a protest is planned and specifically go to this restaurant to eat and let the protestors know that I only found out about the place because of them. They are effectively promoting this restaurant.
People always think they’re correct it’s not a left/right thing it’s just a vocal minority of people who are literally bored out of their minds. It happens all the time in America the only difference is here eventually things will get violent if people aren’t put into any sort of check
Ive been vegan for 6 years but NEVER would I ever protest outside someone else's business telling other ppl what they can and cannot eat. Horrible decisions by some vegans making us all look bad smh
You literally use animal products needlessly for entertainment. You're not vegan. People like you contribute to why people claiming to be vegan look bad.
@@janieswanson2549 who are u to tell me if I am vegan or not? it is against my religion to consume any animal products but again I cannot force my religion or beliefs on to anybody else. ESPECIALLY not a restaurant just trying to get by.
@@sharshal465 Smart phones, computers, and servers are made with animal products. Fat, gelatin, and bones are used in the production of the electronics you used to make that comment. Thanks for proving me right.
@@sharshal465 So you resort to name calling when proven wrong? I expected as much. You use animal products while claiming it is against your religion. Thanks for proving me right.
my grandpa was a world war 2 vet. driving a tank all around africa to europe. i let him watch this video and the only thing he said was "thank god our generation fought the war not yours." had a laugh of a lifetime. rofl
If we had a war like ww2 now we wouldnt have all these trans plants and vegan snowflakes. They just dont have real things to stress and worry about so they gotta make up stuff to be mad at
If China occupies Philippines (a real possibility), people here would go viet cong. Snowflakes live in major cities, the masses will tear invaders up. I'm sure the majority of Western people are the same.
When what someone eats causes amounts of suffering you milk-drinking femboys aren't capable of understanding, you're damn right that some people with a functional amount of brain cells are going to start protesting. This is the Dunning-Kruger effect in action.
So an unoriginal joke walks into a bar... I only know because they tell this joke on literally every post on any website that somewhat relates to veganism, and it was hardly funny the first time I heard it a few years ago.
@@brandongonzales2448 First off, original? I was making that joke in middle school almost two decades ago. Second, it's supposed to be your grandmother's not your daughter's.
it did, i went about a month after this podcast aired. they were booked for about 7 months in advance. My girlfriend and i were lucky that someone just cancelled a reservation. One of the best meals ive ever had
I support this man wholeheartedly and am glad that it worked out for him but regardless of how good a place is no one should have to wait 7 fucking months to be able to reserve a table anywhere especially there
This man is the epitome of being Canadian. Great hair, butchers his own food. Great sense of humor. Super nice. Ate there back in 2017, food and service was amazing. 100% recommend the place to everyone.
The amazing thing to me; is imagine having this conversation with your buddy: Oh you know where you should eat? Where? So and so; the guy has a great head of hair, food is prepared right in front of you, he’s got a great sense of humour, he’s super nice…… Wait what? He butchers it right in front of you? Yeah it’s great it’s farm to table right in front of…. But in FRONT OF YOU? Like you don’t just wait for it so you can forget about how the meat is butchered? Nah man it’s grea…. That’s immoral, let me get my sign Just batshit in 2022
There is an evolutionary arms race between plants and animals. Plants want to survive and thrive but they can't run away from animals so they have developed chemical warfare. Almost all plants are poisonous, and those that aren't contain toxins, hormone disruptors, anti-nutrients, etc. to ward off their predators. Plants are no benevolent hosts for people and animals, they want to reproduce and populate the earth. Plants have more carcinogenic pesticides than those which farmers spray on their crops. Brussels Sprouts have over 130 different toxins, white mushrooms have over 100. They don't want you to eat them.
The vegan of a vegan restaurant is that the food does not contain products derived from animals. It would be like a halal or Kosher restaurant featuring pork, it would completely go against the idea of the restaurant. Vegan food being included on the menu of a restaurant that serves meat does not create the same contradiction.
It's weird that as a society we see more wrong with some diners having their meal interrupted than with a defenceless animal being killed, dismembered and eaten just because they think it tastes good.
@@Floydrush-zx9wz "how about you go to Africa, and protest to the Lions, Hyena's, and ALL the other Predators, to not kill "defenseless animals, dismember and eat them" just because IT KEEPS THEM ALIVE !" Because natural predators like lions and hyenas don't have the same moral agency that we do as humans. We've evolved with the capacity for greater empathy and know why it's wrong to kill or hurt someone without any kind of just cause. We aren't wild animals. We don't need to kill to survive. "Oh and before you claim that "Humans have a choice," yes they do...I chose to eat meat, AND, would/have, kill to eat." Yes, humans do have a choice. But that doesn't give us the right to act on those choices. For example, if I were to buy a machine gun, walk into a school and start shooting, that would be MY choice, right? Doesn't make it moral just because I chose to do it. In the modern world most of us do not need to kill to survive. This alone makes the choice to kill for food morally unjustified. "If you where staving in a desert, with No vegetation to eat.... would you starve to death, or kill any wildlife you found to live ?" I'd starve to death. I don't think my throwing up after having consumed raw corpse would really increase my chances of survival. But again, we don't live in a survival situation so this is a pointless avenue to explore. "What I would say is "Weird," is Vegans, who think they have "The right" to impugn on other people's rights, to IMPOSE their doctrine, by DEMANDING/DEMONSTRATING by interrupting people's meals" Vegans, as with every other group or individual in the west, has the right to protest. Do anti domestic abuse charities elicit the same response from you? Is their insistence that you shouldn't abuse your spouse "doctrine"? Vegans campaign for an end to unjust, unnecessary suffering, if that makes you a dick then I guess I'm a dick.
Initially, I withheld from liking this video because I didn’t want the algorithm to misunderstand my interest and start sending me a bunch of anti-vegan videos but once Joe said “What’s their slogan? We are cunts?” I busted out laughing and couldn’t help but liking this video. 😂
Joke's on them, I never heard of Antler before the viral protest. As I'm from Pennsylvania which has a big deer hunting culture, I'm super excited to try this place. I've missed venison since moving to GTA.
you should counter extort them, offer to sell them a deer that will be slaughtered otherwise every time they show up. Or alternatively you could threaten to slaughter 1 extra deer every week for every protest they hold
I'm from Florida and now planning a trip to Toronto. I'm going to do other things and explore Toronto. But when it boils down to it, I'm only going for this restaurant
Try peameal on a kaiser at the St. Lawrence Market. It's a local type of sandwich made with a specially prepared bacon. Also make sure you get a good poutine while in town. The best is in Quebec, but there's lots of good poutine in Toronto too.
I am from India where I and my whole family do practice vegetarianism from many generations( which is little different from veganism). In India 34% people are pure vegetarian and 3% are vegans. However, majority of people do consume non veg items mostly fish or chicken but not beef or pork, unless they are not the part of Christian or Muslim communities. I guess we should respect everyone way of life and their eating habits.
I live about an hour north of Toronto and had no idea Antler existed until I read about it in the news. I would like to thank the vegan protestors for bringing this place to my attention!! The food is amazing and so is the staff, I’ll be going for the third time soon, completely worth the drive!
7:50 "If you do eat meat you should be able to kill an animal, and experience it." He is so right. Later he mentions that this way people would not be wasting that much meat. That is also right, and in its weird way it is also respectful towards the animals that die to give their lives and flesh to feed us or other animals.
Ive been vegan for several years. Its the best health choice ive ever made and it aleves any conviction as im trying to live my personal philosophy. If you consume meat you should be capable of taking the life, and have the knowledge on how to skin, clean, and utilize every part you can. I personally believe with the rise of civilation, at a certain point its considered unnecessary and barbaric/tribal and its realized that hunting animals is only a survival niche when civilization collapses and we resort back to hunter gatherers. You cant worry about other folks. Even though certain vegans may be zealous and want to spread awareness of beings wanting to live their life, they fall into the same trap as religious zealouts who attempt to spread their message. It becomes forceful and too emotional based rather than understanding that if you believe this to be true, you can only silently live that truth to its fullest in order for it to imapct people the way you desire.
Vincent Sluga, if we can admit that our lives are 90% utopia, shouldn’t we shift our focus onto those who’s lives are 90% hell? Nobody is making anything up. Both of these guys admitted that they feel remorse about animals being killed. They even stopped themselves from that “necessary evil” bullshit because they know this evil we commit is 100% unnecessary. Trivial emotions can only overcome rationality and facts in times of disparity. That time is coming to an end.
Richard Carte We will never actually reach the idealised version of a utopia where everyone is happy happy fun times 100% of the time, even the original utopia had slaves and forced labour as something required to function.
um, no. It's literally Michael Hunter. Granted, colloquially you can shorten his first name to Mike but nowhere does it make sense to shorten the surname "Hunter" to "Hunt". Not even for a lame you tube comment joke.
Antler is an amazing restaurant, literally some of the best venison in the world, and I usually don’t like venison. Please try it out whenever you’re in Toronto!
Best venison I ever had was a whitetail that came from a friend of mines huge deer ranch in Southern Texas. Huge 1000 acre ranch and they feed grain and manage the deer population for huge bucks. Went out there thinking I was taking a small deer. What I thought was a huge trophy deer though, was actually a small one he wanted culled😂
A diet/lifestyle is a personal choice. I like to think myself a "reasonable vegan", I let other people live their lives and mind my own business. I am lucky enough to have never met one of these "aggressive vegans" I hear about. I have experienced a ton of condescending questioning and pushback for it from others around me but most respect my decision.
Not to mention the thousands of little critters that get killed while tilling and harvesting....and the larger critters that get shot with "block permits" to protect said crops.
@@jairberg1518 How? You might want to explain that one. Logically it makes sense that if no meat is eaten, more crops would be harvested to replace that nutritional and caloric intake from meat. Unless you are suggesting the whole sale slaughter of all farm animals (we feed them a lot of crop based foods), whether that be releasing them into the wild to be devoured be predators or putting them down, sounds like something a PETA member would say. Please tell me you are not one of those actual animal murderers, murdering neither for food or sport but just to feel good about themselves in some fucked up roundabout way. So please do explain your statement, because it does not make any sense and most people will think you to be full of shit for lack of a better word.
@@voidstrider801 You already said it, the animals have to eat too. You have to feed those animals a lot more calories in crops than you get from them in meat. For example lets say a cow lives a year, eats 30 pounds of crops a day, and when you kill it you get 500 pounds of meat. It would have taken about 11000 lbs of crops to get it. If you some sort of crops instead of the cow you will have saved 10500 lbs of crops. There are literally giant fields of crops just for animals.
as a long time vegetarian and sometimes vegan this chef is my FAVORITE kind of person who eats meat. he is so respectful, educated, and well spoken.. what a shit show. this is why we get a bad rep.
People in Asia have been eating vegan diets for thousands of years.... they just don't try shove it down peoples throats like a few ill advised morons do. It sucks when the minority makes the majority look bad.
@@markraymond7235 that’s what he’s good at and that’s what people do when they’re good at something, they turn it into a job. He farms the animals ethically and respects the animal and issues all of the animal. You’re a soft ass dork. People have been killing and hunting for tens of thousands of years and so do other predators anialms
johnny roe No he is just making fun of the vegan being a cyclist, because a lot of times when someone is crazy enough to say that eating meat is murder that they usually are into environmental protection. They are not making fun of the cycling part just the combination.
I am vegetarian and I don't like this kind of activism. I think this is the perfect way of having people hate vegans and ultimately preventing them from deciding to try going vegan or vegetarian.
Eating deer meat (venison) is as Canadian as maple syrup and hockey. Our ancestors were raised on it. I know ojibwa who still roast beaver for crying out loud.
I would say that most Canadians have never had venison. It's very uppity, for the people who live in places like Rosedale or Shaughnessy. Them and hunters. Regular Canadians buy what's at the supermarket - beef, pork, and chicken. Venison is fancy-shmancy. Besides, it's expensive and not as tasty as other meats. Hm. Looks like you might have to rework your theory there. Now poutine on the other hand, or Nanaimo bars, ... Well...
