OK so here is the situation:
I am a 15 year old American Vegan (for the animal cruelty, not just to be"natural" or anything) and I might be traveling to live with some friends of the family in Europe next summer.
I have some questions...
(I appologize if these sound silly, I am sort of a new Vegan.)
1. Regarding the food industry in Europe, is it just as inhumane and cruel there as it is in America?
2. I barely know these people I may be staying with. Do you think I should refuse their hard-work and their meat and animal-product filled meals and demand they buy me animal-free shampoos and such? Or should I be thankful, kind, respectful, and considerate and just eat what they make me and use what they buy me? (Basically, should I be a jerk and stand up for what I believe in, or should I give up everything I stand for in order to be a humble, grateful guest?)
Thank you SO much,
TheClassyVegan
