Vegetarianism let alone veganism wasn’t a term I’d ever come across growing up. My world was all about consuming all manners of meat and dairy. It was ingrained in my upbringing, it was everywhere. In my home, at my temple, in my school, at my friends homes. There wasn’t an inkling that I could or would change that part of my life. Mind you all the time I did love animals but never enough to even consider another way of life.

It wasn’t until I learned more about how the food industry works along with posts from all the animal sanctuaries around the world that caused me to switch to a plant based lifestyle. It’s been about three years now and I have no regrets.
