my lightbulb moment.
what turned me vegan was watching darren courdeux video.
it just hit me, why !?
i can give up meat and it does so so so much good.
BEST decision ever and now i couldnt even think of putting rotting flesh in my mouth. ever!
i love being vegan, even if i get taunted for being one by friends
My Vege lightbulb started when my sister became vege actually. We both decided to do it together because it was gross. I got on the computers and looked up some vege websites and found videos like PETAs KFC boycott ones and 'Meet your Meat'. I cried the whole way through but I made myself watch every single one and from then on no meat>!<
My vegan one just sort of happened one day. I bought a super awesome Vegan cookbook called 'Now Vegan' (highly recommended), and I was just reading the introduction. I just said to myself, cool I will just be vegan.

Such a great Aussie vegan cookbook!
My lightbulb moment was in 2006. I found out that the Body Shop was sold to L'Oreal and knew I would no longer shop there so I hopped online to find alternative cruelty free products. As I was searching I found websites about going vegetarian or vegan. As I read through their reasons I knew I couldn't ignore them. I considered just going vegetarian but I knew that wasn't enough, so over a week I went from omni to vegan.
hmm, i didn't exactly have i moment i don't think, i guess just a lot of things that I'd heard of in the past just started to click together. The last piece though was when i was at my dads and one of his friends was making jokes about chickens and eating them. at the time chickens were the only meat i was really eating since i never ate pork/lamb/fish and i was only having cow once every few months.
I can't remember any of the jokes though they just disgusted me so much that I guess I've blocked them out.
I was in the city one day walking with my aunt and we were approached by these people taste testing- promoting. It was for some new deli 'sensation', or so they liked to call it.
They attempted to convince her that eating meat a few times a week was good for you; and there would be no harm in trying it. Her reply was (after being vegan for 13 years), "I wouldn't eat my dog, why the hell would I eat what's on that plate?".

I remember watching a doco on hunters (don't' know why!!!) and was so upset with the animals suffering. I became vegetarian then but sadly, didn't become vegan until 12 years later. Rennet was the thing that did it for me. If you don't know what it is.... eat some cheese, read the ingredients, then do a Google search. I became vegan right then and there!
my "light bulb moment" was one night me and my partner were chatting about all the pets i had growing up from the bottle fed calves and lambs to the fish,
we were eating a chicken stir fry at the time and felt like the biggest hypocrite ever that was my last non vegan meal and i haven't gone back since, my partner soon followed.
My light blub moment was when I was cutting up some meat for the dog that I found in the back of my freezer. The more I cut the sicker I felt and I realised that my love for animals outweighed my desire to eat meat.
