A Friendly Conversation: Exploring Omnivorous vs. Vegetarian Diet

[Jade]

Indolering - well isn't that just disgusting. "Food science" today is now learning how to disguise byproducts as filler to put into mass produced food stuff. So sad.

I've been vegan just about a year now and I can't imagine going back. I've "cheated" on occasion, but my tastebuds have totally changed and cravings for any sort of food stuff I used to eat are few and far between. If anyone's considering it, I want to encourage, it DOES just get easier, like anything else!

Many months ago Marc asked for advice, and while I'm sure he's already learned a lot more and presumably found more peace in his job at Starbucks, I will offer this: I've been recently struggling with the need to get a new job, with my previous trade being of waitress. It's hard being vegan and serving steaks, etc. However, I think the fact is, that regardless of whether we as vegans are the ones serving them, it will not change the fact that that person walked through the door to get a cow milk latte. All we can do it smile and share our good vibes and hope that maybe soon that person will be affected by animal injustice, or want to make changes to better their health. At least maybe you'll rub off enough for them to consider a salad for dinner and thereby save a couple chickens for a few ounces of milk.
