:eek: ohhhhhhhhhhhhh k That's taking your veganism seriously.
That's the truth. I've had food come to my table and the waiter says "but I told him no dairy". And I"m thinking why did he bring this to the table then :confused:
True it's not about permission or appeasing the "vegan police". We each have to live veganism in our lives as we choose and make a difference in our own community. I know that I make an impact on my...
I have not changed how I shop for non-food items. I have not bought any clothes, shoes, our household furniture since I've been on this forum. I'm buying tennis shoes within the next week and I'll...
Maybe then there is the concept of a vegan traditionalist and a vegan contemporary. A traditional vegan goes by what was defined in 1944 while a contemporary vegan goes by the evolved meaning of...
It's all good :D Once I got past the culture shock when I joined this forum then I realized it was just that a cultural difference of the understanding of veganism.
I realize we must do what we...
My health first and then the animals. I first must take care of the body my creator gave me and then I can help take care of the rest of the planet.
I've had a vegan diet for three years and until I joined this forum I've never heard of the phrase "strict vegetarian". I was having cookies with my parents this past Sunday at Whole Foods. (They...
Well I found at this link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_chloride
that calcium chloride is added to food to give it a salty flavor without increasing the sodium. It is also used in cement,...
I never cooked it. When I brought it from home I just left it in my lunch bag on my desk so it was room temp when I ate it. I added it to my hummus pita. I think your idea of adding it to pasta...
Update: the Tofurky Italian Sausage was not good :( Too tough. They were trying TOO hard to make it like meat. Didn't like it.
Find some statistics about the state of health of vegans verses non-vegans. Things like a decrease in diseases, increase in life span, things like that. Look for a long term study on vegans.
I've seen cactus plant in farmer's markets. I bought one once and didn't like the taste of it and could not figure how you cook it or prepare it. It reminded me of an aloe plant.
Which is why teens with meat diets develop their sex drive earlier than those who do not eat meat.. well based on a study I read. I remember reading once that vegetarian and vegan teens become...
I never thought about that :eek:
This is what I've found on BK onion rings. Not sure if there's animal products are not. I'm questioning the gelatinzed wheat starch and the calcium chloride....
I believe there is truth to the phrase "you are what you eat". If you look at children raised on a vegan diet and children on a meat eating diet they do develop at different rates. I feel that heavy...
Thanks for the links. :) I like the Vegan Chef website.
That's kind of what I'm thinking. I think it's awesome that an impact can be made in the fast food industry by non-meat eaters. But I do see what Rid The Cancer is saying. Fast Food chains sells tons...
I see the logic in what you are saying. (Can we please not burn Taco Bell :p ) I do wonder if having veggie burgers on the menu increases awareness of not eating meat. The more people see non-meat...
What do you use in baking in place of eggs? I would not mind baking but I'm not sure how to replace the eggs.
For breakfast I had a banana, walnuts, cereal and a class of soy milk. For lunch I'm trying the Tofurky that I've read a lot of good reviews. I have the Tofurky Italian Sausage and eating it with...
Last night I had avocado sushi. One of my favorite treats. Tonight I think I'm going to Roly Poly and getting their Spinach Stuffer.
They have a vegan pizza? Was that on the buffet or a frozen version?
I like the amber one :)
Ohhhhh it's divineeeeeee. :D I would make one now except my blender broke :cool:
I don't use honey and I needed something to replace corn syrup and molasses since they were just too sweet. Agave...
I love agave nectar. I use it in smoothies :p I buy the larger bottle at Whole Foods.
I guess that depends on who one is speaking too. Before commercial farming the milking of cows was quite humane back on personal farms. People had one or two milk cows and those cows had a healthy...
I used to think the veggie burgers and onion rings were decent. Well I think the onion rings still are decent (minus the sauce since the onion ring sauce has eggs in it) since they don't fry any meat...
I was thinking the SAME thing. 99% vegan is vegetarian.
Now that's a very helpful link.
I was wondering the same thing. I have no concerns what is in someone's cupboard as long as it's legal :confused:
At restaurants I try to be as easy of a customer as possible. But I do ask my share of questions. "Are the veggies cooked with butter or with meat? May I have rolls without butter on them? Is there...
Out of curiosity I went to Burger King's website to see if their veggie burgers have egg whites in them. Not only egg whites but milk :eek: Here's the list from their website. No more BK burgers...
I have found that chain restaurants are adding veggie burgers to the menu. My guess is they are not vegan burgers but at least there is a veggie burger option on the menu. I know that Ruby Tuesday...
1. On a scale of 1 (easy) to 10 (strenuous), how difficult is it to find a place to eat out at? Atlanta has a lot of vegan friendly restaurants so a 1 in terms of making plans. If I'm out and I want...
There are many restaurants in Atlanta that have a good vegetarian/vegan menu. These are the restaurants I've visited and I've enjoyed all of them.
In Atlanta, Georgia
Cafe Sunflower...
My view is that cow's milk is for baby cows :o I figure it has no business in my body.
I do not agree with that actually. For me the ethical aspect is a positive benefit but my entire motivation is the health benefit. What meat and animal by-products do to the human body is inhumane...
My path was so gradual over a period of years. I had stopped eating pork back in the early 1990s so pork was not an issue when I began to change my diet. When I did start changing my diet I dropped...
Even for organic bananas that's pricey. Sounds like they charged you the wrong price.
