  “I eat green, my dietary choices are (predominantly) for environmental reasons. I hope this makes me more approachable to the omnivores in the world & thus a good advocate. Last thing I try to be is judgmental(but vegans are often pretty nifty folks)”

  “This summer was my ten year veganniversary and I find myself with fewer vegan friends than any other time in the last decade. Living in this meat obsessed city can get me down sometimes. Time for a vegan boost.”
