My name is Cassie. I'm 18 and A very lovable vegan. This blog is about everything and anything vegan, but mainly food. I'm not such a new vegan anymore, so I am a bit more experienced than I used to be, but I am not an expert and do make mistakes! At some point in my life I'm going to make as many things from scratch as i can. I'm cutting out palm oil from my diet, because it is an unnecessary ingredient that causes deforestation and takes orangutans habitats away, making me see it as an evil non-vegan product. I just found out about this production of this product, so I'm finishing up my vegan butter's (which contain palm oil) and then following a recipe to make a replacement.
What got me to go vegan? Well I have a number of reasons. So we will start from the beginning. I was a vegetarian for a year and a half before this happened. I started noticing that I was having chronic stomach pains and went through a trial and error process with certain foods that I ate daily. first thing i went 3 days without was bread or anything containing gluten. then I tried without soy. still felt the same. So then I went to dairy... OMG I made some progress, I felt a little better, but i still had a little more pain, so i tried no eggs, and had the same amount of pain as when didn't have any dairy. then i tried no eggs and no dairy... and the pain just disappeared. So due to my findings, I ended up forcing myself to watch earthlings (i still have not finished the last half hour, i'm a wimp i know) and bawled my eyes out, so I knew then i was going to be changing more than just my diet, but slowly grew into it. Then, I watched forks over knives. much better than earthlings, especially since it gave me a nutritional look of how to do this right. So my reasons are: Dairy and eggs = unbearable chronic stomach pain dairy = veal and rape eggs = chicken periods (gross) and all eggs go through the same cruel industry whether caged, free-range, or organic Meat, eggs, and dairy = environmental destruction and this one was with me when i was a vegetarian: MEAT IS MURDER!
I hope you like my blog, I'm hear to help anyone transitioning or just looking for vegan items. :) Have a good day.
