That's so cute.
Being a vegan isn't so hard as people think it is. Like anything, you have to have good tasting food. Vegan food, done properly, can give the same satisfaction as meat eater foods. Like tonight I had a meatball(vegan Trader Joe's), marinara and mozzarella(vegan Daiya)on a french bread steak roll. Every bit as tasty as you'd get at Quizno's. But plain veggies are fine by me too.
See, I'm not trying to be preachy. But I hear the how hard arguement all the time. I can assure, with proper cooking, even a meat eater, like yourself would be plenty satisfied.
I wasn't always a vegan. I didn't even convert out if kindness for animals. I did it for Bill Clinton reasons. My cholesterol, blood pressure and pulse were all so high, the doctor said he wanted to check me in three months. If I didn't improve, he was putting me on medication. I hate big pharma so much, I went vegan those three months, so I wouldn't ingest a milligram of cholesterol. In those three months my cholesterol went down 40 points, and my bp and pulse became normal. I was so relieved, I could even go back to meat. But I felt no need, and stayed with it ever since.
I used to be such a meat eater. 3x3 Inn n' Out animal style, or a Pizza Hutt meat lovers. Those were my favorite. I'd have those a few times a month.
For me, the hardest thing is how expensive it is. Like that meatball sandwich cost $3, and I had to make it myself! If you want take out vegan, you need to make it yourself.
As the years went by, I became quite the animal activist too. Strange it was the diet that made me, not me making the diet like most vegans.
