Star Trek fans have held the national stereotype of being way too rabid about things for decades but they’re probably the nicest fan base in all of science fiction and the one least likely to have a large faction of them absolutely lose it over a torpedo being fired by a woman or dumb shit like that

They have food replicators. The only thing not vegan about replicated meat is that they'd probably use your poop as bulk material to synthesize stuff

    Could just replicate the eggs, or even a raw steak to grill, would still be poop meat.

    Neelix on the other hand...

    The replicators are also used to "recycle", converting matter into energy, to be used for future replication.

    I doubt they were hauling poop through space rather than converting it to poop energy for their next earl grey.

    Yeah they have. But don't they go on to tell in several episodes of all of the shows, how someones mom makes/made the best X/Y out of real ingredients and how much better that tastes than replicated food? And they eat on some planets with other people or on vacation... ?! Or someone worked in a restaurant?
