Made it! Its March. How's everyone feeling? First day of spring (and its sunny!), plus you can go find that hamburger...
Feeling slightly confused actually, had coffee (and porridge) with soya milk this morning, mainly because its all I had in the fridge, and not quite sure what to do now. This month has shown me that, for me, its been suprisingly easy to go vegan (provided you're in an environment where you've got enough control over what you're eating - so travelling would be tricky).
I don't want to stay vegan - and I don't want to stay vegetarian either (I think). But I do want to not go back to having meat every day, and to be much more concious of where that meat comes from. I think that someone who eats occasional meat or fish alongside an environmentally consicous diet with still be roughly equivalent, environmental impact-wise, with a middle-of-the-road vegetarian. Plus for me, eating locally sourced meat or cheese products will help me to not buy imported tofu/bean burgers or other options, just because there is that much more choice available from local foods.
I've found out I like tofu, and dates and vegan sushi (and happily, haven't completely gone off hoummous), and that vegan cheese is an evil that should be shunned by all.
I hope you've all had fun this month - let me know how it went and I'll send out another survey shortly (along with the results from the last one...). I'll be still posting over the next few weeks, reporting on any new developments and whether I do honestly run to the nearest MacDonald's as soon as I leave the house.
love,
Hayley
