There are certain groups of vegans who make the

exception for ocean based foodstuffs... not really my

version of vegan but if it works for them, i wont

condemn them. we're all on our own paths anyways, no

point in trying to herd us into neat little labels.

 

When I was doing volunteer work at a soup kitchen, i

knew a woman who was vegetarian. when they made soup

that had meat in it, she ate it. she didn't have much

choice. i still consider her a vegetarian.

Really? Wow, I learn something new every day.

I knew some vegetarians will eat meat of the fish,

but I didn't think vegans would do that. I have

learned so much about the different diets this past year. :)

Right. No point even trying. But knowing a bit about how

others define themselves does help when you are fixing

them dinner.

Absolutely! I agree. Namaste

It is a very rare church indeed that encourages its members

to think for themselves in religious matters, or even tolerates

this, and in most of them the clergy are quite ready to lay

down the law in other fields too.

I agree 100% Mr Graves! I don't eat any meat whatsoever or any

animal products, but my other half eats the odd bit of fish, but he

hasn't eaten dairy for over a year and no other type of meat for

about 8 years before that! People like to hassle him out, tell him

he is 'wrong' or whatever, but hey, it is HIS choice and he is eating

alot better and more thoughtful than most people in this world of

ours.

This is always a difficult one. I couldn't eat something like this

and would always make people aware before hand that I wouldn't eat

it, therefore wouldnt be put in the situation. However, everyone is

different and some don't find it easy in social situations to speak

up about it. I think we've all been in situations where we've been

served up something that ethically we cannot deal with. As a

teenager I remember times where I just gave in, just ate some things

in order to 'fit in' not appear like the 'odd one out' etc, even

though I didn't enjoy it and was feeling very upset about it. I soon

got over that..... I usually avoid eating in situations where this

is likely to happen, and I don't think everyone is able to do this

for whatever reason.

 

Cheers,
