A young woman who claims to be a vegetarian revealed something online that her friends probably won't like to hear - she said that all vegetarians cheat and eat meat every now and then.
The TikTok user from Toronto, @Baligrilledcheese, caused a real stir with a viral clip that managed to gain over four million views in just a week.
"If you ask me, I'll say 'No, I never eat meat, never ever ever, I love animals.' I'd be lying," she said in the brief 27-second TikTok video while eating a pizza topped with prosciutto.
"I have it about once every few months, and I'm telling you, every other vegetarian out there has a cheat meal, and if they say they don't, they're lying to you. They do."
Do all vegetarians secretly eat meat?
Many of her followers accused her of not being a vegetarian, despite claiming to be one for seven years. Others pointed out that being a vegetarian isn't necessarily for dieting and could also be a moral or ethical choice.
Other comments were from vegetarians who admitted that she spoke the truth and that they, too, on occasion cheat and eat meat.
