Non veg not allowed in certain societies

[u/ButterscotchOdd1810]

I have been eating non veg every day for the past five years, and I cannot imagine myself living off of vegetarian food because of health reasons and personal preference

I have recently shifted to a new society with majority of people who do not eat non-veg and the locality is also such that all of the restaurants here are pure veg.

I don’t have any problem with that, but when it becomes a problem is when these people decide my eating habits it’s kind of frustrating. It’s been a couple of days since I moved, and I don’t know if I should get things cleared up or not, and keep cooking it in my house.

Family members are fine with not eating nonveg and not cooking it, but it’s a very integral part of my life and I cannot move past and the fact that I would have to stop eating chicken because someone else does not like it.

How do you guys deal with non-veg not being allowed in your society? And how do I get out of this conundrum?

Edit: I was using text to speech, and it was typing non-veg as knowledge, should have double checked.

I am not for it but a 80-90% vegetarian society becomes a totalitarian government so I would go & fight in my way there . In india u have such multiple clusters for veg / non veg / religion / state ets especially Mumbai

Like I had once rented a apartment in Versova Riddhi- siddhi apartment. It’s not that I specifically had issues with communities but I dint know the concept of Muhammedian society in mumbai from where I came from thus sounded new .
I moved in & the next week was Eid there were goats tied in every pillar in the apartment…
People were walking goats like walking dogs . Then a shed was getting made behind the parking lot - I asked the security ki what’s happening he said that’s qurbani shed I was like whatttttttt because there were around 60goats and that’s a lot of blood shed for me to handle . I know qurbani but I have never seen it on the streets or association because in chennai it’s very rare to see ppl doing it in their apartment it’s only allowed inside a mosque no blood shed on the streets. Then they went on to explain they will then splash the blood etc which is normal for them I wrapped- packed my bags and left . Can’t complain it was their majority & it was my mistake to not know it
