Vegetarian, vegan, meat eater… whatever your choice, it is likely one that you have come to as an adult in life. That wasn’t the case for Stephanie Potakis of The Onion, who chose to go meatless in the fourth grade to help “save the planet.”

Potakis was still going meatless in her life 22 years later, but curiosity was getting to her. After all, meat is freaking delicious.

Don’t believe us? Just watch her take a bite of chicken, let alone steak.

I mean, the sure joy and delight in her face while chewing the first piece of chicken should be enough to convince you. But she goes all out with some bone marrow and some steak for her enjoyment too.

Sure, vegetarianism and veganism are valid lifestyle choices for one to make, but come on… even a 22-year veteran of the vegetarian lifestyle knows the truth about meat.

Potakis has probably the best way to describe a great steak, saying, “Oh my, it’s like a butter I didn’t know existed, but it’s meat.” (Her suggestion for Wagyu-flavored gum is something an enterprising company should consider.)

You see, meat actually has real flavor in it without having to do much of anything to it. Vegetables? When was the last time you talked about the succulent head of broccoli or those amazing beets you had?

That’s right — never.

So go out and be proud to be a meat-eater today — because even a vegetarian has seen the light.
