Did it more ham than good though?

I assume they mean harm as in reinforcing the "snobbish" stereotype that vegans are known for, and OP's screenshot demonstrates the same thing- potentially turning people away from considering the diet themselves.

You're helping the planet and animals by not eating them, but if your snobbery turns 10 people off from adopting that diet, then I'd say you've hypothetically done more harm than good too lol

I think they meant ham as a pun.

I guess the ends justify the beans
