About Me:

How I became a veggie: Almost 4 years ago, after feeling like crap post-breakfast burrito, the girl I was working with and I decided to do some research on what we had just eaten. I hadn't eaten red meat for over a year before that due to moral objections formed from reading "Fast Food Nation". After that morning however...see just the little bit that I did...I dropped ALL animal products from my diet overnight and very soon after that, dropped them from every other part of my life. It started off with mere disgust, moved on to health concerns, then into ethics and empathy, and ultimately into a combination of all of the above and an overwhelming emphasis on politics as well. The government has been lying to us for god knows how long, killing us off in a million different ways. With my choice to practice veganism, I can help to save my own life, educate others, and save countless, countless, innocent animals from the knife.
