Is it silly to go vegan for ethical reasons?

Is veganism a waste of time because lions will always eat meat?

William Ralph Inge Quote




































When I think about what we, as humans, do to the animals I get so sad and angry and I am also deeply ashamed to be a human being. I will eternally try to make amends for what I have done to them. I was innocently ignorant at first and later I was willfully ignorant and selfish. Please forgive me. 😢

Would it be a waste not to eat the animals, since they die anyway?

Eggs - before and after vegan



I went vegan I ate eggs every single day. I had been told at the gym that eggs are a superfood, especially the egg whites. After watching videos about where eggs come out of and how the animals are treated in the egg industry, I could not see them as food anymore. I can't believe how easy it is to bake without eggs and tofu scramble with black salt is an amazing scrambled egg alternative.

What do you think about meat subsitutes?
I personally avoid calling them "fake" or "mock" meats, as they are made from real plant ingredients. I prefer saying plant meats or grain meats. 'Meat' comes from the old english word 'mete' which simply means 'food'. This is a fact I learned from the amazing Colleen Patrick-Goudreau @joyfulvegan
