German beer it is then!

Ohhhhh okay, cool. didn't even know there was a facebook page. Could you share the link to the page please so I can check it out.

Just got a message about a twitter account for the veganforum, is the discussion moving on there?!? What brought this on? Just curious, wanted to know why the change

Committing to the new lifestyle, understanding which nutrients and in what quantities i should consume, discovering and researching vegan sources of those nutrients, finding nearby stores where such vegan foods can be found, budgeting, replacing old craving foods with vegan alternatives...

I'm too skeptical to take a manufacturers words at face value. I'd indulge them if they've committed their product(s) freely and of their own volition to the scrutiny of third party societies (preferably more than one) whom I am more inclined to trust, societies such as the UK vegan society.

For many people, it usually takes a life altering catastrophic disaster to make changes in their lifestyle. An intellectual understanding alone is not nearly as powerful as when the consequence of one's actions are glaringly obvious - that one would have to be an automaton to miss. Sadly, I'm...

Not so related to this but I remember watching an eye opening video on youtube about an amazonian tribe and their first contact with the "civilized world" i.e NatGeo. Anyway, it depicted how these people made their own toothpaste, their own soap, and their own skin oils among other things all...

The ethical argument that vegans use to defend their position is very interesting to me. I like to view humanity as custodians, custodians of everything around us simply because we are conscious beings. More specifically, we are conscious of our selves and the effects of our actions on other...

Why not? Many people choose to be vegan/vegetarian based on strong ethical reasons and rightfully so! We've all seen what the industry is willing to do when breeding animals just to remain competitive. But I think laboratory cultivated meat provides vegans and vegetarians (even omnivores) with...

Soy is overdoing things? Anyway, mung bean once a week and other lentils. I am one those few (or many) that plan their meals ahead of time especially dinner. Its lunch that is a little trickier, because its difficult to predict what you may feel like eating. I used to pack my lunch sometimes...

5 to 6 cups? whatever for? I'm not one to drench my body in more fluid that it actually needs. Glass in the morning, a glass at lunch time, and a glass after my work out in the evening.

Making the transition to vegetarianism means you will have to grapple with big decisions such as which alternatives to consume in order to meet your dietary requirements and maintain your nutritional health. The human body, though resilient, needs a baseline amount of various nutrients to remain...

Being a good cook requires a certain fascination with tastes and flavor, a fascination I hadn't developed until recently. For the longest time I had a bland palette which hadn't really changed since...well since I can remember. I never really thought about experimenting in the kitchen, until of...

I wonder why no one mentioned "I can't believe it's not butter" as a substitute? I think its a great substitute to the real thing

As Connie said, there is a distinction between the two (vegan vs vegetarian) where vegans avoid all animal products i.e. eggs and dairy etc while vegetarians make this an exception. Further, it may be the case that your body has a specific deficiency and may not be able to produce or process...

Hi galMal, Where probably on a similar boat but I'm on the fence on whether to go completely vegan or remain an omni. There are good reasons to support cutting back to be sure but I'm not convinced that a diet completely devoid of animal proteins/nutrients is beneficial (ethical reasons being...
