How does one "live" vegan?!


Question: How does one "live" vegan!?
I recently cut meat out of my diet!. Then I saw a documentary on chickens used for laying eggs (even "cage free") and cows used for milk and was serisouly disturbed!. I thought that by buying "cage free" eggs, the chickens were treated more humanely!. Is there any products or companies that actually treat animals humanely!? Or is organic and "cage free" just a scam for making money!? Do vegans eat organic as far as fuits and vegetables!? Lastly, does living vegan even mean buying vegan clothes!?Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
The label organic means that animals aren't fed hormones or antibiotics, it has nothing to do with how animals are treated!. Additionally, the USDA doesn't regulate labels such as "cage free," so manufacturers can put whatever they want on their egg cartons!. Even if chickens aren't kept in battery cages, they're kept in a windowless shed and deprived of their natural life!. Animals used for food aren't treated humanely!. Cows are continually raped, have their calves taken from them hours after birth, so humans can drink their milk instead!. After chickens and cows fail to produce enough to be profitable, they're sent to slaughterhouses to be killed for meat!.

Some vegans may eat organic foods, but many don't!. Eating organic isn't a requirement of a vegan lifestyle!. However, vegan clothes are, at least in the aspect they're not made from wool, silk, leather, fur, or other animal products, which is actually quite easy!. Vegans don't use products containing animal products, whether household cleaning products, shampoos, or toothpastes!. Essentially, vegans don't consume or use anything containing animal products, such as meat, dairy, eggs, silk, honey, wool, fur, leather, silk, etc!.

Being vegan is great for your health, the environment, and most importantly, the animals!. It's a lot easier than one would think!. All of the cleaning products and beauty products at Whole Foods are vegan!. Additionally, most clothes are vegan and a lot of foods you wouldn't think of as vegan actually are!.

Congratulations on your decision to go vegetarian, I wish you luck on going vegan!Www@FoodAQ@Com

There is, unfortunately, a lot of scam out there in the world of foods!. Manipulation threw misleading terms is hardly new!. When you can support your local farms and can see that they follow threw with good intent, and when you can help yourself by being your own minor producer, then you are doing right by yourself and the world!. And, by the way, it does go beyond just the foods you eat!. What you wear and the manufactured goods you buy (or pass up) means equally as much as what you consume internally!. You care for the temple of your soul, and that temple resides somewhere special, not a cesspool of pollution and plastic!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

living vegan means that you dont buy,eat or use anything that has every came from an animal no leather, eggs,milk,or meat you can still use wool though cause it doesnt actually hurt the animal but it does scare them so some people wont use it either and then about the whole organic part, being vegan does not mean that you have to buy organic foods but alot of vegans do buy organic because part of being a vegan is eating healthier and the chemicals used on crops are
harmful to the human body and to animals

if you decide to go back to eating meat but still dont want to harm the animals then you can find a local cow farmer and they can sell you a whole or half a beef , when you buy from independant farmers you can gaurentee that the animal was treated with the respect that he/she deservesWww@FoodAQ@Com

I don't trust that any company with products on the grocery store is taking good care of its chickens and cows!. So I just don't buy it!. I think I would drink milk from my family's farm though (they live very far)!. Those cows there are so happy! In the morning they come to the corral, the family gets milk for the day, and there they go with their babies!.!.!. No hormones, no cruelty!.!.!.That's a pretty good life!.

Sometimes I eat organic sometimes not!. It depends on the price!.!.!.I avoid any clothing or accessories made of animal skin!.

********EDIT: Oh!! I think a very important thing is buying cruelty free beauty products and personal care stuff!. Animal testing and suffering so people can have longer eyelashes and red lips is just wrong!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I am vegan and I can't afford to eat organic!.!.!.so no vegans don't always eat organic!. also it's true!. There are no cruelty free eggs!. That is the reason I stopped eating eggs!.

Most clothes are vegan unless you wear leather and fur all the time!. Most of my clothes are cotton and other stuff like everyone else's!.

I am glad you have learned what I did!. I wish more people would see that there are no cruelty free animal products!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

i am a vegiterian, not because of animal rights, well thats not how it started at first, it began becuase meat didnt seem apatizing to me, then with research i saw many videos on how animals are treated and i began doing it for animal rights, i don't dress "vegan" in anyway, im still the same person i was, just going out to dinner sometimes its alot harder cause there nto much to choose from!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
