I eat so much healthier as a vegetarian than I did on the standard American diet. I don't eat "crap that is bad for me" so that i can stay on a specialty diet. I changed to a way of eating that is better for my health, the planet, and bonus, the hundreds of animals that I would have eaten are still alive.
Yessssss....
All of that kills me, too.
I did try introducing banana a few weeks ago. Sliced bit & put it on some toast.
Had migraines that night & for two days. And it never dawned on me it was the banana, because my stomach wasn't sick, but it makes the most sense.
This confuses me after reading your previoys post about not stressing out about what you eat.
OK, so you're mad about packaged taco seasoning and fake butter ,but you use fake maple syrup??
Grade B is real maple syrup. It is darker and less sweet than the other grades of maple syrup.OK, so you're mad about packaged taco seasoning and fake butter ,but you use fake maple syrup??

Well, I think choosing not to eat stuff and spending a lifetime thinking about food is different from having food allergies or having food that worsens medical conditions.
Also, note, I didn't include vegetarians in my rant. Although I bet you do eat a ton of soy which probably isn't the best idea. Regardless, you didn't save any animals. They would have died anyway. The animals being produced to feed people are being produced and killed regardless of your dietary habits. If you have made a significant enough impact on the food industry by your choice it would only be in that they stopped making as many baby animals or they kill more baby animals at birth.
My family has a strong history of heart disease. When my mom had a heart attack at 54, i had my cholesterol checked, and it was over 300, despite being in my early 20s, low to normal weight, and dancing ballet 7 days a week. I had a choice of eating better or taking statin drugs the rest of my life. My cholesterol is now 158 at last check. My siblings are on statins and blood pressure meda already. Oh, also colon cancer in mom and aunt, mmmm bacon.
Far from thinking about food all the time, eating vegan is much easier than when I ate meat. There was a learning curve at the beginning, when i did eat the soy meats a couple times a week. I rarely do now, as I know how to cook, and vegan food is easy and quick to make. I don't avoid soy though, especially tofu, as it is a very healthy food.
The only difficult thing about eating vegan is the dickishness of other people about it, tbh.
And I think forced breeding and killing of young animals is disgusting, so if that is "all" I am saving, good on me.
How about planet earth? By not eating animals, my carbon footprint would be smaller than a meat eater's, even if I wanted to drive a huge SUV. Watch Cowspiracy and see the truth.
