Meet your Meat

I am a vegetarian.

I've stopped eating meat March 2011.

Why?

At first it was to help my friend out through lent...and then...

I watched a Animal Cruelty video

Everybody...Meet your Meat

I lost 10lbs...and I couldn't bring myself to eat chicken, beef, or pork...after seeing this video

Then I read Skinny Bitch & Eating Animals

And then I became part-time Vegan for awhile...Lost another 10lbs...

I feel so much healthier and happier, people always ask me "Where do you get your protein?" From many things...tofu, soy milk...I eat a lot of fruits and vegetables and I take a multi-vitamin everyday. 

Being Vegan was easy at first because after reading about cow udders being used with a machine sucking all the milk out of their poor bodies too much that it starts to produce sores and pus and all the dead skin cells is what also goes into milk that everyone drinks. I only drink soy, almond, and rice milk now. 

But I have issues with:

Cheese....AWW MAN! it's so hard! I tried Vegan cheese...it smelled really bad....I'm from Napa...

Cheese and wine...

Desserts...Yo Belle, Sift Cupcakes, and Champagne Cake. 

My Favorite Meal of the Day: Breakfast....I love the Sweet & Salty Combo. Waffles, pancakes, potatoes and eggs...:::sigh::: Have you guys been to The Griddle Cafe in Los Angeles? YUM! 

I need to always think that eggs are a chicken's abortion. That way I don't eat them...

I've made Vegan cupcakes

I do need to experiment more in the kitchen because I know I can make vegan pancakes...I'm just too lazy. But I definitely will try not to be lazy for animals. Those poor defenseless animals.

These are my confessions: The only thing I don't consider myself a full 100% vegetarian is because my weakness is Sushi. :::sigh::: I sometimes have a hankering for sushi but I've only have it like 3 times.... Only sushi, I can't help it...I'm asian...My mom brings me sushi all the time and I don't want to hurt her feelings. ;)

I am trying to quit sushi from now on...because those poor defenseless fish! I'm actually more concerned with Dolphins and Whales because they get killed when they are accidentally caught in the line of fire when fishermen are catching salmon or tuna. 

I'm Taiwanese I've been raised on a lot of weird delicious food..like pig intestines, pork belly, chicken feet, and cow stomach.....I've quit all that. My family is Buddhist.

 I am trying to practice Buddhism, and I think being Vegetarian is a good start to great Karma.

Everybody be kind....you'll be happier and good Karma will come 

And don't forget to tip!
