HELLO TO ALL. I JUST BOUGHT ALICIAS BOOK, I"M VERY CURIOUS AND WANT TO FLIRT. MY FAMILY EATS PRETTY GOOD, BETTER THEN MOST I THINK. I'M NOT SURE I COULD GET MY HUSBAND ON BOARD WITH THIS OR NOT? MAYBE IF HE READS THE BOOK? WE GREW UP IN MINNESOTA. CAN YOU SAY MEAT AND POTATOES, OH AND MORE MEAT... I HAD A PET COW NAMED BUFFY, I ALWAYS WONDERED WHAT HAPPENED TO HER, SO SAD. ANYWAY I'M NOT A BIG PC PERSON BUT WILL DEFINITELY BE LOOKING AT THIS SO ANYONE THAT HAS ADVICE FOR THE NEW PLEASE SEND. :) A
oh my gosh i just love you guys! these stories are amazing! and maybe the kids 18 and 24 will read the book? are the girls? if boys maybe mad cowboy by howard lyman....anywho thanks so much! you guys inspire me so much!
if your husband is a reader get him on Diet for a New America.
John Robbins gave up his multi-million dollar claim to the Baskin Robbins company due to his opposition of the inhumane treatment of the cows. Robbins spent years researching veganism and outlines EVERY fundamental flaw in our culture's diet. It's a really revealing read.
If he's not a reader, I doubt there's much that can be done to de/re program him, the conditioning is heavy. :-\. Lead by example :)
ALL GIRLS, HUH. ALL BOYS HERE. THANKS FOR THE INFO. I'M GOING TO FLIRT AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS.
Welcome, Andi! I would definitely encourage you to incorporate more vegan meals in your diet. It is so worth it. I have been vegetarian (and now vegan) for over a year and I can't imagine even eating meat again. In fact, it actually kind of repulses me now. If your husband doesn't want to get on board that's okay. My BF is a meat-eater, but he eats what I cook and that's all vegan. And guess what? He loves it! Going vegan was one of the best decisions I ever made in my life. That, grad school, and my BF.
