How much do you know about being a vegan?

I have never heard the “won’t eat anything with eyes” bit. They don’t eat sea urchins either. Which is a shame, because urchin is damn tasty.

Vegans don’t eat any animal products. Whereas vegetarians won’t eat poultry or red meat, some will still eat fish, and most still use dairy products and eggs. Strict vegans, on the other hand, eat only plant material.

Then, of course, there is the level-four vegans which, according to The Simpsons, don’t eat anything that casts a shadow.

It would be healthier if people ate less meat. Without any at all you’ll be fine in the short run, but you’ll run out of certain nutrients after a couple years or so. Get zinc from lots of pumpkin seeds, iodine from a little kelp or iodized salt, and B12 from pills, b/c you can’t really get B12 from plants. If you eat a lot of seeds - grains/nuts/beans - cook them or soak them in water for 4 hours or more to prevent digestive problems. These are important for protein, calcium and iron, btw.

The only things I know about vegans are:

-They’re fully against animal abuse -Don’t eat any kind of meat -Eat mainly vegetables and salad -Doesn’t eat anything that come from animals

this has been the info that I’ve gotten from my vegan friends. they don’t eat any thing with eyes or anything that comes from hurting or killing anything with eyes. no milk, butter, eggs, fish, or leather… these are not proven facts…this is word of mouth.. and all my vegan friends are emotional girls…so yeah..that’s my disclaimer
