Sunset Shimmer doesn't eat meat for some really obvious reasons. Rainbow Dash is extremely offended about this and tries to change that.
It... goes about as well as you might expect.

The meat everywhere and Sunset pretending to be a zombie was funny!
The ending was good and I liked the built up if a bit lacking in some parts, I felt like sunset was a bit more dickish in this one though. Sure she's totally right to deny and Rainbow was being an ass but it felt like her dark thoughts were just meant to be taken normally, like she only batted an eye at the idea of threatening rainbow with a tomate. Like 'Rainbow didn't realize how lucky she was for being alive that Sunset hadn't gotten ketchup and mustard stains on her favorite jeans' I feel like if she was reformed that kind of thinking would be lessend like what if she said 'Rainbow didn't realize how lucky she was for Sunset not ripped into her yet'. I know the two sentences are similar but the meaning shifts when we take into account how sunset has kinda had to kinda take a friendship beaten into her.
I know it might seem minor but small tidbits like that and Sunset's general agitation just a tad bit more aggressive than she would probably react. it's the tone of it y'know? Hearing Sunset's thoughts constantly on the idea of just "turning back" puts into the idea as if being evil by choice was at the start of her plan. What could've helped was like a throw away line of her reflecting on that sentence like saying "Eh, but i wouldn't do that." To tell the audience she just says it but doesn't mean it.
I liked Rainbow Dash's characterization in her passive- aggressive way of tempting Sunset, but I did feel like I had to put a bit more disbelief in thinking Rainbow genuinely didn't realize how much this would be considered annoying.
Overall I liked the concept and the execution was good, just maybe the characterization was the thing that felt a little leaning to just them being put a bit into their extreme archetypes of their characters.
It makes way too much sense that Rainbow Dash likes alternate universe Burger King.
Ahh a tasteful Wallflower cameo. That almost never happens.
Dang. Now I want to know too!
From henceforth Sunset Shimmer will be called... Hotdog Hair!
This 'myself' guy is a filthy liar, because this was awesome. Can't believe it doesn't have more upvotes.
Mission accomplished.
Thanks for writing!

Sunset Shimmer cannonicaly has anger issues.
This is actually way more annoying than anything Pinkie Pie did to her in Backstage Pass, if only because Rainbow Dash is doing it on purpose.
And it's not unusual for people to have exaggerated thoughts about how their going to react to people ticking them off, in the heat of the moment.
And Rainbow Dash has always been pushy and insensitive, even if she used to be better about recognizing it.
11323329
It's not unusual but there's no reaffirmation that she actually isn't taking those thoughts too seriously, as such why I suggested a throw away line like to see she doesn't really mean them. And in this sense I feel like rainbow is just more of an airhead along with the pushing along with the posters and whatnot. I also feel like sunset would've been more believeable to bring this up with Twilight, idk a friendship issue where she doesn't know how to not come across like a cold person to Rainbow maybe she'd contact Twilight.
Sunset having canonical anger issues is fine, but we don't a clear indicator how far she's been in getting better with them so it's kinda up to us to really figure out how well. So to me I just think she would've gotten better with it but that one is totally a given so you're right.
I asked a vegetarian about this story, and they said it's mostly plausible even if it's a parody.
Some people just can't handle someone else being a vegetarian. (Or maybe they just can't handle not being a jerk about it?)
I assume this applies to some other moral or practical strictures too.
Also, nice bit in the ending.

I feel that how quickly it passes in of itself denotes her flippancy. If her thoughts lingured, then we might have reason to take it more seriously.
I say this as someone who loves cannon EQG Rainbow Dash... She kinda of is one.
That goes double for her pony counterpart, who I am admittedly less fond of.
Probably. But this is a comedy.
Characters missing the obvious is practically a given, since sitcoms set the definition of what fictional comedy was, for about 70 plus decades.
In fairness to Sunset, it didn't really occur to me either until you brought it up.
11323361
Well most of the time people don't find her buttons and push them and the last time she got mad in the show she kinda had a good reason considering Sci twi was being stupid and reckless. Rainbow on the other hand just got a little less egotistical after the sirens but not by much and unfortunately not thinking about things is how she is. She deserves to get bit in this story. There is a limit to how much you should push anyone and no means no!
O say can you see, by the dawn's early light...
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming...
Nice cock, bro. On a less joking note: I thought what was gonna happen would be that Rainbow would get Sunset a regular burger instead of a veggie burger and Sunset would only find out when she saw the receipt but I guess Rainbow just wasn't cunning enough to do that.
Not bad, have a thumbs up.
You're a bad friend, Rainbow. You had that coming.
Wow, how did you get Rainbow's personality and intelligence exactly right?
I find it much better than the soulless white and black modern look (and gray washing everything). To me it says; “shut up, hand over money and get out with whatever we give.”
I am not the person who’s opinion you want… I find my jokes pretty good but find most other people have shitty humor.
On to the story…
I liked it. It is unfortunately quite juvenile like most here; little kid juvenile like the age range the show was meant to appeal to. I managed to smile for most and grin during bacon hair part. For a fimfiction this is actually part of the top ten percent. Most who go out of their way to be comedy seem to fail.
I do not mind vegetarians and vegans, as long as they do not try to get me to stop eating meat.
it just means more meat for me after all.
Dark/black Humor is like food . .
Not everybody gets it . .
Very nice story.
He, he, not bad. The humour was a bit mild, which was actually better than if you had tried to ramp it up, and in a EQG sort of way the story was actually believable, lol. Thanks for posting!
Hrm.

Pretty much happenned to me at least 3 times with different coworkers or just random people at parties who took it upon themselves to "convert" me back.
i was pretty much struggling to breathe throughout this whole thing
the narration/descriptions were hilarious at every turn, and i think you got the girls' personalities down perfectly. take my thumbs up and a favourite!!!
As someone who is trying to incrementally cut back on my red meat consumption in an effort to have a healthier diet living with a family that at times seems to idolize meat and potatoes, I can say I don't understand hard-core vegetarians or vegans, and I don't think I could ever be one, I like cheese and eggs and pastries too much to give them up cold turkey (pardon the turn of phrase).
That said, if I was invited over to dinner and had a friend who I knew was a vegetarian or vegan, I'd do my utmost to respect it, try some of their food and maybe bring over a dish of my own that was made to accommodate their beliefs. I'm not going to claim to be a saint, but RD's lucky she didn't get slapped or worse struck with a ISS or OSS for harassing Sunset.
Honestly a bit too much set up for my liking (and a few typos) but the ending was pretty good
also i couldn’t stop thinking about this amongst all the talk about stealth meat https://youtu.be/VYn4GE2M_ss
That was definitely entertaining
I gota say, I can definitely see Dash being this annoying, it fits her track record too perfectly poor Subset I’m surprise she didn’t went all demon-girl in Dash after the first week XD
Also, for your first comedy this was very good
I bet that's considered a threat some place.

I never even saw a sausage link (the traditional ones) in real life and I already feel threatened
Funny. And I too wish to know what Celestia did with the ruler.
Honestly, I didn't find this funny. It's just Rainbow being a dick in depressingly realistic ways. People on either extreme of the dietary spectrum pull this crap all the time and I just want to slap her.
Very entertaining and got a few chuckles from me, feels like this could be a real episode, nicely done
I think I might just straight kill someone if they tried that on me, like, with any food.
