Default Is corn not Vegan?

I'm confused as I've just seen an ad for "vegan popcorn" made from cauliflower.

Is cauliflower more vegan than corn?? What is happening. Is corn alive. I'm scared.

Popcorn probably has stuff added to it made from animal fats and stuff.

It's literally corn, dried out, then heated up and it pops. You don't have to add anything

Yes but they've created a specific vegan popcorn out of cauliflower, Marsh! Why didn't they just make a vegan popcorn using... p... popped corn? The only answer is that corn is people. Soylent Corn.

Cauliflower has neither pop or corn so I would take them to trading standards

Gets worse, I never really understand the need to call vegan food something meat based

Because clearly the taste is not the reason they stopped eating it?

It's just an alternative to popcorn with the word "vegan" on it. It obviously wasn't made to create a vegan version of popcorn. I don't understand why anyone would find it so outrageous. It doesn't affect you.

I don't think anybody does.

They're just asking why regular normal popcorn (without the butters and syrups) isn't inherently vegan.

Is it not like having a vegan apple?

It is vegan, I don't think anyone said it wasn't, nothing about calling imitation popcorn vegan implies that regular popcorn isn't vegan.

Err I think it affects us all if corn is sentient. It changes literally everything. What will happen if it decides to fight back? Iowa and Nebraska at the very least are doomed.

Chickens eat corn so you’re stealing food from them which is the only explanation i can think of for it not being vegan
