Do you know anyone who is a Vegan?  I am and it's really hard and sort of lonely. 
I know plenty! I'm sorry it's hard for you. Does that have to do with where you live? Or maybe you're an "ethical vegan" and have people around you who don't buy into that philosophy? 
Probably where I live.  I'm in the south where they even cook veggies in pork! 
I hear you. Texas girl myself, so yes MEAT and BBQ, etc. What made you choose veganism? Diet or ethics or both? 
Mostly ethics.  I feel like it's so random on what people say is ok to eat. Why stop at dogs and cats?  All animals are animals whether or not domesticated!
It's a fair point. And obviously that line depends on where in the world you live! Are you a member of PETA, the international animal rights organization?
I am not - I feel like they are too extreme and give Vegans a bad name!  What do you think about them?
I have to agree. I would likely be more open to their messaging if it didn't so often go for the shock value. Their slogan is "Animals are not ours to eat, wear, experiment on, use for entertainment, or abuse in any other way." THAT I can agree with more than shock
Yeah you'd think by now they'd realize their shock marketing doesn't work.  It almost makes me want to eat animal products!
Ha! I know. That tends to be my response to extremism in every way shape and form. Do you find it easy to plan your diet? It can have so many health benefits and reduce risk of so many illnesses.
