What Vegans are NOT

This following paragraph is probably the best summation I have ever read of how I feel about myself and my other vegan sisters and brothers:

Earth Balance: Another one Bites the Dust

Slappin’ the faces of those that eat you

As the title of this article reads, that just what it is when you find out that a company and product that you love are only using you.

So long Earth Balance, it was nice while it lasted

Where Do You Stand?

I loved this short and sweet article on the mindset of vegans and how they are most always taken as being extreme and angry ... and why maybe some of them are.

I'm don't consider myself extreme or angry. I consider myself passionate and compassionate.

Just don't piss me off with stupid and ignorant comments ;)

She's BACK!

Wow. What a crazy, fun, adventurous and exciting last few months it has been.

My travels were more than I had dreamed they would be and I have come back to Canada with a new perspective, appreciation and understanding of not only the world, but myself.

I had no troubles keeping to my vegan lifestyle while lugged my pack from bus to boat, from country to country and never once went hungry, managing to to eat like a champ everywhere I went.

Sure, I had to learn a few phrases in the local language of wherever  I was at any given time, but that made it all the more fun and challenging.

I have loads of places to review, recipes to post and stories to tell.

All will be coming very soon. I promise.

As if eating chicken wasn't gross enough

Now we get to see this: mechanically separated pink chicken goo which is the "main ingredient in hot dogs, bologna, chicken nuggets, salami and other processed meat products"
