Vegans, anyone?!?!?!
Are there many vegans out there other than me!!?!!?! I've yet to meet another vegan and I find that most people hate us for loving animals and not eating meat, make fun of us because they don't think were healty, or find us fasinating like some zoo animals but would never do it themselves!!!Www@FoodAQ@Com

I am a vegetarian but do quite often eat vegan meals!. People poke fun at us because they are jealous, otherwise they wouldn't care one way or the other!. As to the question of protein, I always wonder why that is the first thing that some people say when everyone knows that nearly all foods contain protein!. Even a potato has protein in it and no one ever suffers from lack of protein, and only super athletes need a large protein intake anyway!.
A really good vegan society is one in the UK (I'm not from the UK)!. It's cheap to join and their magazines that they send 4 times a year to members are really, really helpful!. Their website also has plenty of information too and it's at http://www!.vegansociety!.com/html/!.
Being vegan is not easy in this meat, meat, meat society so good luck with it all!. And yes, I too sometimes feel like I'm the only vegetarian on the planet!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I am not a vegan, but I am a lacto-ovo vegetarian!. (I might be vegan someday, just not ready yet)!. I sometimes feel like I'm the only vegetarian around too!. Don't feel alone, there are other "zoo animals" like us out there that love animals and don't eat meat (and remember that vegetarian diets are many times more healthy than carnivorous diets)! Don't let them get you down, just keep doing what you do!!!Www@FoodAQ@Com
Ignore the haters--they're just scared!.
Check out Meetup to see if there's a vegan group in your area, and if there isn't try starting one!. If you know of vegetarian restaurants in your area, hang out there; you may meet other veg*ans!. Google "vegetarian ____" (with the name of your city in the blank); that may help!.
We are out here; you just have to find us!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I'm a vegan!.!.!.not a "so called" one, whatever that means!. People tend to be confused by my diet rather than hating me, but I don't really make a big deal out of it, so I don't make people get defensive!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

heh, I'll often poke a little fun, but it's just that, fun! I do recognise a lot of the health benefits of cutting back on meat, though most vegans/vegetarians don't get all the protein they need!. I myself have begun to cut back on my meat intake, and focus more on fish when I can!. However I don't see myself ever cutting it out entirely!. On a side note, I've heard the argument that eating meat isn't natural !. !. !. so why do we have incisors!?Www@FoodAQ@Com
