As I vegan can I cook for my family?!

Question: As I vegan can I cook for my family?

I mean, like can I cook them big hunks of red meat or pork? I know vegans can eat pretty much anything except for red meat and pork. I am a vegan and so I use a lot of chicken, fish, eggs, and dairy products to make up for no red meat or pork products in my diet. Some vegans are ok with red meat and pork as long as it is only little tiny pieces mixed up in something and you can't really see it. So make your shopping list like you would normally except leave off the red meat and pork, or at least get a good knife so you can chop it up real fine without seeing it. Oh, and vegans don't eat meat that is still on the bone like chicken legs or fish with bones still in it because it is cruel.

Answers:

Is there a specific reason why you are a vegan? If there is a nutritional reason for being a vegan and you have food limitations for your health, then follow doctor's orders. If you are a voluntary vegan and just doing it because it sounds like the thing to do, then I wouldn't worry about a little meat getting into your food. Eat what you like and be healthy. The reason why our bodies can comsume and process meats is because we need the proteins to function properly...don't deprive your body of what it needs.

You are not a vegan, you are not even a vegetarian. Vegans dont eat any meat, fish, poultry, shell fish and dairy. Vegetarians dont eat any meat, fish or poultry but still eat dairy.

Vegans dont eat any kind of meat or meat products, this includes chicken and fish,eggs, turkey, cheese or milk

Vegans use no animal products whatsoever. Your a Vegetarian.

Veganism is the practice of eliminating the use by human beings of non-human animal products. Ethical vegans reject the commodity status of animals and the use of animal products for any purpose, while dietary vegans or strict vegetarians eliminate them from the diet only.

Vegetarianism involves the practice of following a diet that includes fruits, vegetables, cereal grains, nuts, and seeds, with or without dairy products or eggs. A vegetarian does not eat meat, including game, poultry, fish, crustacea and shellfish, and may also abstain from by-products of animal slaughter such as animal-derived rennet and gelatin.Various foods or treats, such as cake, chocolate, chips, gum, marshmallows and gummy candies, often contain unfamiliar animal ingredients, and may especially be a concern for vegetarians due to the likelihood of such additions. While some vegetarians are unaware of animal-derived rennet's role in the usual production of cheese and may therefore unknowingly consume the ingredient, others of the diet are not bothered by its consumption Often, however, animal-derived products, such as certain cheeses, gelatin or other animal-derived ingredients, are scrutinized by vegetarians prior to purchase or consumption.

Oh, goody! Captain Conman returns!

You're as much a vegan as I am a 13th Century Cossack dancer from darkest Peru.

I'm a vegan, but I have no problem cooking vegetarian, non-vegetarian, vegan and non-vegan food for family and friends - as long as it's something that's relatively easy to make, or the recipe is easy to follow, and it doesn't stink the house out (which lets out some fish dishes, obviously). Obviously I'm more comfortable and confident when cooking something vegan, because I'm used to cooking that and I am able to taste it while cooking, and I can eat the finished product. And I don't keep a separate set of kitchen utensils and cooking vessels for vegan and non-vegan usage.
