I’m Vegan
I'm not, it's the title of the blog. I'm guessing that most vegans will see the title and assume I'm vegan.
While waiting in line at the grocery store, a chore I abhor: I observed a young lady who couldn't seem to figure out how a card swipe machine worked. She needed to be told exactly what to do, how to do it, what button to press, etc. While it appeared she was someone probably not worthy of minimum wage, she announced that she was vegan.
NOTHING could kill your cause more! B vitamins are important for neurological health, and a good balance of them is important as too much of one could shut down the absorption of another. This person was obviously neurologically unhealthy. If someone doesn't get enough meat in their diet, it appears to non Vegans that they go around telling the world that they're vegan while they pretend to be happy, yet act very disturbed for the sake of animals (doesn't this parallel Christianity?).
Militant vegans apparently hate me. For some reason they feel they can convince the world to be vegan, and I interfere with that. I LIKE that people want to be vegan. I do care about animal welfare along with them! My take on it however is that alternate solutions should be presented for animal welfare such as: people could use goats, sheep, etc to trim their lawns (raising them humanely) and provide meat for people who won't live without it. We simply cannot convert all meat eaters, so we may as well start caring about the animals that must die for food!
Why not free range eggs? Eggs are loaded with bio-available protein, aren't a life form, are loaded with proteins we wouldn't normally eat (which make up beaks, tendons, etc). I've seen a bulletin against free range eggs which indicated to me that you should buy directly from a local farmer. The eggs you may get could be incredibly better. The shells tend to be much thicker, the yolks darker, and the flavor incredibly better. Eggs are also a cheap source of protein and are filling/ satisfying.
If you choose to be Vegan, be smart about it! Don't act like idiots then announce that you're vegan in public.. cause I see that ALL THE TIME! Your diet has to accommodate your needs. Every Vegan / Vegetarian I know in real life is obviously unhealthy and or mentally disturbed. Forget about Soy - It's you're enemy!
Anorexia is linked to a nutrition deficiency, and so is getting a song stuck in your head. Being Vegan doesn't equate to caring about animals. Many vegans I know have cats which like to torture other animals to death.
Is veganism a mental illness? - If it isn't, then please stop acting like it is.
There really isn't such a thing as a Vegan. We all swallow insects and spiders in our sleep. How many more for Vegans who wouldn't knowingly harm the spiders?
If you're going to attempt to be vegan, do it smart. Get nutrition advice from others that are successful for a long period of time.
