actually a lot of vegos i know are only semi cos they eat lollies with gelitan...
Yeah a few my sorta friends (im friends with them but not really good friends) asked me about lollies and chocolates and they said th oy thing stopping them from turning vego is that they dont trust the PACKET of the vegan chocolate!
What don't they trust about the packet?? :S
The plastic or aluminum? Or the design??
Besides...you can be vegan without consuming vegan chocolate.....
I call them "flexitarians"; a term I picked up in "Natural Health and Vegetarian Life" magazine.
Although eating animals and animal products is wrong, I still respect those who can cut down their consumption. At least they're taking the first step, and maybe they will convert later.
It's like how most people start off being vegetarian, and then go vegan.
As for forcing her ideas on others, that is terrible. It's good to encourage people, but it's frustrating when you're the only person who's aware of the hypocrisy. I'd politely inform her that she's being unreasonable...
thanx for the advice about my friend.
i agree with you. its just hard to explain to people like this that how they speak to people and what they are doing isnt right.
