I don't care that you call me a lacto-vegetarian. I usually do not call myself a vegan either though I am 1oo% compliant at home and, while on my own, I always choose restaurants when eating out that offer vegan options. In my view, it is not essential to be 100% compliant, as long as you're...
I try to show them, whenever I can. My birthday party two years ago was completely vegan. I did not tell anybody that the "meat" on the tramezzini was "fake" and with the rest of the food being inspired by Indian cuisine, nobody seemed to bother or even notice. Nobody complained until I...
My wife and I married almost 30 years ago. We went through a lot of arguments on food during this time. When I became a vegetarian some few years after our wedding, she followed suit but renounced to that diet 6 months after, because of her cravings for sliced sausage. When I became an almost...
Feel free to disagree. I for one am prepared to compromise on a few things outside my own home, because I feel I shouldn't jeopardize my relationship with my old omnivore friends by being too picky about what to eat (so I go for a vegetarian meal if there aren't any vegan choices). My wife (who...
Good to hear that pubs in the UK are willing and even able to serve you vegan dishes. In German wine bars (or say: in the traditional weinstube), you might get a vegan salad or boiled potatoes and sauerkraut (which quite often contains some bacon). No jacket potatoes over here! :( I only know...
I used to be a big meat fan in my twenties until I became a vegetarian when attending the "traditonal" slaughter of a cow and her calf in Portugal. While being a vegetarian, I certainly craved meat and surrendered to the craving on occasions. Since I have been on a vegan diet, the craving has...
Pretty much depends on the restaurant. I relatively often dine out at some Vietnamese or Asian restaurants or even at dedicated vegan places. When I go out with omnivores, I try to make the cook prepare something vegan for me, if their is no feasible option on the menu. If that does not work...
It's probably very gratifying for many to denigrate other people's views or attitudes, especially when their intent to behave conscientiously is a nuisance to them. So-called do-gooders are being given a hard time these days by those whose name I do not know (do-baders?).
Funny indeed! :) Thank's for sharing. Besides: you are right! The protein obsession, as I view it, reverberates the propaganda of the meat and dairy industry that only animal protein is the real protein and that you have to eat loads of it to stay healthy. If you are a vegan and try to stay away...
I noticed various improvements. Better blood circulation (presumably through decreasing artheriosclerosis) has freed me from my heart condition and has drastically reduced fits of pain in the back (lumbar vertebra). Digestion and micturition has also improved as has my skin and toe and finger...
