Why I am a Vegan

[Plenum]

just a quick update on where I am with this ...

at home, where I cook all my meals, I'm 100% vegan.  It's not an issue for me, and I like where things are at.

However, on those rare occasions where I do eat out (like during my Homecoming Trip), I just default back to vegetarianism.

Yet - if there were clear options to do so (marked on the menu, main dishes), then I probably would take those options.  I have no particular fascination with either eggs or cheese (although I did grab breakfast with Blatz at a place called Wild Eggs one morning, and that was pretty neat).

The thing is, I do get indicators that this is starting to shift.  Veganism is becoming more and more of a known cultural phenomena, and restaurants and menus are going to have to cater and adapt; if people are eating out, and someone is quite strict about their diet, and they plan ahead, some places are going to be skipped over because they aren't willing to flex for their customers.

But businesses only get this message if people ask.  

So that's just where I am with this.  I can see the shift changing, and it's great.
