I am going to Mexico in a few weeks and was wondering how to say the word Vegan and words like no meat, no dairy, animal free?

ANy help is appreciated.

How did all this get started (drinking milk i mean).

I am so sad after reading all of this. Just as i, and all humans should be. :(

I say herbivore as well. It makes the conversation light and people seem more willing to listen than to write me off as a crazy Peta person. (nothing against Peta this just has been my experience...

Thanks - i try. I also try to buy organic whenever possible. It's not always easy to find though.

I never heard of the soaking of seeds and nuts first. Why is this? Can you digest them better this way?

I can't handle tofu. . . :(
