Answers:
Vegans choose to live a lifestyle where they don't eat meat, or any other animal products, such as eggs or milk or anything else derived from animals!. Some don't use anything or wear anything that is derived from animals as well, such as wool or leather!. It is just a choice they make to live their life that way based on there feelings of how animals are treated in the different industries, like the meat and poultry industries where animals have been known to be extremely abused!. So they choose not to encourage the abuse by not "funding" the different industries by buying anything from those industries!. It's definetly not evil, they are trying to be the least evil as possible by not contributing to the abuse!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Evil!? Despite the stereotype of Vegans being preachy hippies who tell you to stop eating animal products or die, veganism is based on love and compassion for animals!. There is so much cruelty in the meat, dairy and egg industries, not just in the way animals are treated (e!.g!. artificial impregnation of cows, caged hens etc!.) but the fact that no matter whether a animal is in the dairy, egg or meat industry, it will be killed and it's flesh will be eaten!.

Personally, I can't believe the meat industry, and it's by-products!. How can you slaughter living, breathing animals who feel pain just like humans do and Eat Their Flesh! It befuddles me!. And in the dairy industry, baby male cows are slaughtered for veal!. And in the egg industry, male chicks are taken away from the females (it's easy to tell because they are lighter in colour) and put in gas chambers to die!. It's the saddest thing to watch adorable little chicks clucking away one minute, then slowing lose consciousness and fall the to ground, then their puffy little stomachs go up and down, until a minute later, the chick is completely still!. Dead!. How can we do this!?!?!? - this occurs in free range farms as well as caged eggs ones and organic ones!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

it's pretty simple actually, a vegan is a person that does not eat any animal products!. by this i mean, the actual animal, but also animal products such as: eggs, cheese, milk, ice cream!. vegans pretty much do not eat anything made from an animal or the animal itself!. also, most vegans do not use animal products such as leather jackets, boots, lipstick, etc!.
