Guest guest Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 HI Ray, Sandpiper (Amy) was replying to the post from Maida. Maida was questioning the honey, Amy was replying to her. Amy is one of the moderators, and I didn't want you to get the impression that any of the mods were jumping on your back. I do hope you will reconsider rejoining our group. I personally am vegan, but refused to call myself that for well over a year after dropping the dairy & eggs, for fear of unknowingly ingesting some substance that was offensive to some other vegan and have them get all preachy with me. Finally I just decided to go with the vegan title, as it does fit my lifestyle the closest, and involves less explanation. Additionally, I think the vegans who do take offense are just louder than those of us who simply adapt a recipe. I do hope you will reconsider and come back to the group.. you were not wrong in joining, you state, Again on reflection I find I May have made a mistake I joining this group as I was under the impression that it was an adult group whose aims were to swop ideas, post favorite foods and light heartily chat? and that is exactly what I feel this group is all about. I cringed when I saw the topic of honey coming up, as it is one many feel passionate about, and, please forgive me for sounding judgmental, well... it often comes out sounding preachy, in my opinion, to those on the receiving end... even when that may not be the intention. This is a group for swapping ideas, sharing our lives, talking food, recipes, and a heck of a lot of chatting! As one of the moderators, and as a vegan, and fellow member, I apologize for the misunderstanding and hope you will consider rejoining. Happy Wednesday, Jenni Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
