Honestly Useful Tips for the Vegan-Curious
And no, you probably won’t miss eating meat.
Hey there, future vegan! ✌️
I started my ethical food journey about five years back when a friend of mine went vegan. I was blissfully ignorant and blatantly clueless about what veganism is actually about, so she was my teacher.
I was filled with fear of premature aging, malnourishment, and most potently—dying of protein deficiency. Looking back, I never imagined I would be a die-hard vegan and animal rights activist, religiously living by a lifestyle I wholeheartedly believe in.
A Long Time Veg Head
I was a vegetarian for three years before I went vegan because I didn’t have adequate knowledge about the dairy and egg industry. Most importantly, I lacked the moral integrity to align my actions with the character I subscribed to for myself.
I’m here to tell you that if you’re thinking the same thing, you are not alone. I’ve been there, through the ups and downs. Once you go vegan, you will only regret that you didn’t do it sooner.
If I could give you any advice at all regarding living vegan, I’d say: Be the change you wish to see in the world, practice what you preach, and live with genuine purpose.
