Veggies and Vegans, do you eat anything that makes you feel guilty?

The question was raised when I was talking to a meat-eater who said she felt guilty about eating chocolate (she had no problem with eating dead animals!) - I just wondered if any of you get a guilt complex about anything you eat! P .S. I am a lifelong veggie - no eggs, meat or fish, but I eat dairy.

Shame on you, 8 legs! Gelatine comes from the joints of cattle! Consider yourself harshly chastised!

One time I accidentally ate this rice that a friend made... she told me it was vegan (and like a dumba s s) I believed that she knew what she was talking about.
I ate some of it and immediately tasted something weird about it. Then I asked her what was in it... she listed what she used to make it and said that she used cream of mushroom soup... I don't know if I felt guilty, but I definitely wanted to throw up all over her floor...
Luckily I have a strong stomach...LOL. I just figured...oh well it's not her fault, I should have been more careful. And it was an accident.

That kind of stuff has happened a few times since I've been a vegan... but hey what can I do but be more careful next time. I might have felt a little guilty about it right after it happened... until I realize that I didn't do it on purpose. And life goes on... I just had to forgive myself and pay closer attention to what I put in my mouth.

I just answered another question about someone eating pizza... and wondering whether she should regret it or not.
I told her that when I first became a vegan it was so overwhelming that I went back to eating dairy... It only lasted a few days because I felt so unhappy and guilty about it.
So yeah I felt guilty about that... But I don't regret doing it. (Now I know that I could never go back to eating dairy :])
