Mickey Isle: Ribeye steak and crab legs with a twiced baked potato covered with bacon. That sounds like a good birthday dinner. It sounds like he went vegan so he could get a little somthin somthin from the girlfriend. Don't worry once he gets it he will come back to his senses. If god didn't want us to eat meat he wouldn't have made it taste so good.
William Vickerman: it not beacause of a fad
Marcellus Yoshimori: What are you talking about?Just because someone is vegan does not automatically make him/her an Atheist. People can hace any religious view and still be vegan.
Kim Gerbino: I think it's a very good decision and your reasons behind are your own. I myself have many reasons why I chose to convert. The fact is that you have to do it smart. Eat a variety of fruits and vegtables, nuts, legumes, and grains. Do some research on your vegtables and find out which vitamins are in which. Do a test run and if you do good just keep going. So many ! people are against a vegetarian/ vegan lifestyle but it's simply because they feel their lifestyle is being threatened. Don't let them get to you. Get your facts and do what you feel is best. I myself have been a much happier, healthier, and humane person since I became a vegetarian and I'm in the process of becoming a vegan. A lot of people my criticize me for it but it's my choice and not theirs and it's my life and health and not theirs....Show more
Coleman Deliberato: Did you know that if cats don't eat meat they die? This is proof that it's not evil to eat meat. Animals are innocent. Going vegan will not make you a good person and might make you malnourished. It's really hard to be a vegan and get the right nutrition. I'm not saying it's not possible, but most people don't have the knowledge or the energy to be vegan properly.

Sheldon Lally: This might be the dumbest question I have seen. Meat is delicious.
Bryant Pillitteri: www.goveg.com its a peta website, but it has many, many helpful tips, reasons to become a vegan, and recipe's.
Newton Fedorko: Last I checked, Pasta has eggs in it.....true vegans don't eat eggs.As a caution, make sure your son's choice to shun meat is not purely for his relationship. ..or to fit in with a qlique. Its good that you encourage his choices, just make sure thay are "his" choices. Growing men can have issues with vegetarianism and veganism, because most young people are not educated enough to fulfill their protien needs for proper growth and hormone balance on an animal free diet....Show more
Heidy Fujikake: I love being vegan. (please don't listen to Harry D or Kim F, they don't understand what it's like to care about animals)That is great that you are trying to live your life compassionately. The best advice! to give you is to know as much about the subject before you try to speak to your parents about it.There is a huge amount of unfortunate misinformation that your parents were taught by their parents (because they cared about them and wanted them to be as healthy as possible of course) and even by their teachers in school. As a result, there is a ton of information you should have ready to convince your parents that your decision will be a healthy one.Be sure that you NEVER try to accuse them of anything for eating meat if you happen to get upset by their arguments against you. That will make it way more difficult for you to spend your coming years with them the way you believe is right. I hope that the following will help you be prepared for the fight that may be ahead of you:-------------------------------------------------------------------------If you want to become a lacto-ovo vegetarian, the transition should be quite simple. Almost all meats have widely available comm! ercial replacements. All that you have to do is replace any flesh in yo! ur diet (beef, pork, poultry, seafood) with meat analogs or just leave it out altogether.BECAUSE YOU ARE YOUNG AND STILL LIVE WITH YOUR PARENTS, PLEASE DO NOT READ THIS PARAGRAPH AND LINK UNLESS YOU JUST USE IT TO GET AND IDEAOF HOW MANY ANIMAL DERIVATIVES THERE ARETechnically the term does imply that you don't consume anything that comes from the body of an animal that requires killing it. Many ingredients such as gelatin and glycerin are found in many candies, Fig-Newtons, and many of other foods as well as rennet found in many cheeses.http://www.happycow.net/health-animal-ingredients....The best thing to remember is to take your time so that for example: when you are comfortable not eating beef and pork you can then give up chicken when you are sure you can make the commitment permanently.You should keep in mind that a journey such as this this can be quite short but should just be the beginning of a longer one to a plant-based diet with no animal products. This is becau! se of the reality of factory farming in which animals that are kept alive to produce milk, eggs, etc suffer much more than animals that are raised to a certain weight and then slaughtered.http://www.veganoutreach.org/whyvegan/Some people use the word "vegan" in reference to this idea, but be aware that that applying that label to yourself should always come with the inclusion of wise activism and advocacy.http://www.veganoutreach.org/advocacy/index.htmlTwo extremely important examples of this are that you should never speak to someone about vegetarianism/veganism without their consent and genuine interest or as a comment on what they are eating AND your dietary beliefs should never be used as an introduction or explanation of who you are as a person. Veg*ism should be something that comes up AFTER people get to know you and they offer you a situation that makes it confusing to withhold the information/dicussion. Also, if you are presented something that you choose not to ea! t or you areordering food/eating together somewhere/picking the best pl! ace to eat.When you you hold off on the subject until it's necessary and then act like it isn't a big deal at all, people are usually surprised and WAY more interested and curious than if you were to bring it up when someone's eating or just using it as a conversation starter.Just to clear things up, the vegetarian/vegan diet is not composed of salads, vegetables, fruit and fake meat.A balanced plant-based diet includes grains(breads, pasta, rice,cereal), legumes(soy, beans, peas, lentils), fruit and vegetables.http://www.pcrm.org/health/veginfo/vsk/food_groups...http://www.peta.org/accidentallyVegan/http://www.veganoutreach.org/whyvegan/eating.htmlBeing vegan can be an art, one whose challenge is to take things that involve the suffering of the innocent and change them into something free of cruelty.If you meet someone that talks down to people for eating meat, dairy, etc or to you because they think they are "more veg" than you, laugh in their face and tell them they are ! a disgrace to the entire philosophy. People like this only hurt the idea of veg*ism AND the animals. The point of all of this is to live compassionately and and as free from cruelty as you can, all the while maintaining your health and a positive attitude. People who don't maintain either, need not open their mouths and represent our beliefs.If you actually choose to read all of this, I hope it helps. If not, feel free to e-mail me if you have questions.---------------------------------------------------------------------------Here are some of my favorite foods.Breakfast: bananas, cream of wheat with brown sugar and soy butter, cereal, pancakes or french toast with real maple syrup, vegan sausage patties, smoothies.Lunch: VEGAN 'SAUSAGE' SANDWICHES, sandwiches with vegan deli slices(Tofurkey is the only one that's kinda funky), fruit, dinner leftovers, couscous salad, vegan sushi, potato or pasta salad.Dinner: sloppy joes, 'sausage' and gravy with homemade biscuits, Spaghet! ti and Trader Joe's meatballs or TVP, lasagna, Thai pad see ew, pad khi! mao(drunkard's noodles), tofu+eggplant with basil sauce, yellow thai curry with tofu or vegan chikn and veggies and jasmine rice, Indian dal with homemade roti or dosai, channa masala, aloo gobi, vegetable or minestrone soup, pizza, STEAMED 'PORK' BUNS with potstickers or spring rolls...Show more
Leif Serabia: meat..haha
Mitsuko Manne: Vegans don't consume anything that comes from an animal - e.g. no meat, dairy, eggs, seafood, leather, wool, silk, nothing tested on animals or that use animal products in their production.They can, of course, consume anything else they wish. e.g. vegetables, fruit, grains, legumes, funghi, soy products.. etc....Show more

There's lots of websites online such as vegsource.com, goveg.com, pcrm.org. . .too many to list, really.

Kate Baune: Non-vegans are a miserable group of pathetic excuses for humans who constantly whine about themselves because they are self centered. Look at all the people who talked about themself on this question alone.
Kelly Bistodeau: You can make pasta with tomato sauce and veggies like onions, spinach, zucchini, bell peppers, mushrooms and other veggies of your choice.Or you can also make some good veggie sandwich .

Dick Ovdenk: crakers and peanut buter
Gerardo Greist: First of all, I think it's so great that you are reaching out to get help to make your son and his "girl friend" feel special on his special day!I'd say a nice pasta is a good easily made vegan meal. Make sure not to use any butter or put any cheese into it though! A red sauce adding mushrooms, roasted red peppers, green peppers, onions and italian spices is delicious. Blue Bonnet LITE and Smart Balance light make vegan margarines that you could use on a bread to make a nice garlic loaf. Check the ingredients on the bread if you can, not all breads are vegan.As far as a birthday cake or dessert. If you don't want to spend all your time in the kitchen, there are some cake mixes and even frostings that are v! egan! Instead of eggs in the mix you can use applesause (3 tbsps per 1 ! egg) or blended silken tofu (usually found in a box in the produce section near the herbs, garlic, mushrooms and things like that) 1/4 cup of blended tofu (just stick it in a blender til it's smooth) per 1 egg. This link:http://www.peta.org/accidentallyVegan/VeganShoppin...will take you to a page that lists items that are found at any normal grocery chain that are "accidentally vegan", that can help you find a cake mix/frosting.Good luck! I hope it goes well, your son and his girlfriend will be so appreciative!...Show more
Toby Caswell: Just like any one else, they eat, they drink, they fall asleep, no problem.Dune
Marvel Mcaulay: As a vegan, you can eat pretty much anything, as long as it has no meat, no dairy, and no honey.People think that means that it leaves us vegans with a limited amount of choices, but actually it opens up a door of boundless creativity in the kitchen.Just check out the blogs in my sources, and you will see exactly what I mean.We have ma! ny choices and great recipes; we can even have baked goods....Show more
Raye Tredennick: Tofu, Soy, beans, eggplant. Those are mostly your meat. It's mostly a fruit and veggie diet and unlike vegetarians dairy products aren't allowed. So no milk chocolate, and it gets really tricky with other baked goods. This diet is doable, but not easy. That's why I'm vegetarian :) I love cheese too much
Danette Slotnick: Seems that you're confusing religion with lifestyle......and confusing ridicule with what seems like it would be intended as a compliment... although I have no idea what a Brahmin is.
Ronny Nowzari: never heard that before.But as an answer for you, everyone has different ''beliefs'' when it comes to what we should and shouldn't eat it'll be a dull world if everyone ate the same.
Alexander Villas: I was just wondering, I know what being a vegetarian is but im not sure what vegan is...:)
Simona Bulwinkle: I am a non-vegan, but I must ad! mit, I do think I would have a difficult time living with myself if I t! old vegans they were "holier than a Brahmin".I will now try and avoid that expression. Thanks for the warning.
Hubert Jestes: Vegan don't eat anything animal related period. Honey, eggs, milk, gelatin, keratin. And don't wear anything animal either, leather, suede, wool, fur, etc. As far as food. I eat mainly the same. Pasta VegetablesVegetable soup (make sure the broth is not animal etc) Avacado sandwiches (My personal yummy...) Salads(some) hot chocolates(some) oreo cookies(some) Breads (rye bread, sour dough(not completely sure) Peanut butter and jelly sandwichesPizza (made with vegan cheese and vegan pepperini if you prefer that, I don't) Potatos Sweet potatosBeansCerealFruitsThis of course is not the full list of vegan foods, it's just an idea of regular food people normally eat. Once you go vegan, you will notice a ton of vegan foods and things your eating that you never even known was in your food. I almost threw up when I looked up some of the ingredients! in my regualar daily junk food....Show more
Alecia Kaehler: 1. Healthy 2. Respect for animals. 3. I don't have to kill a carrot. 4. Vegetarian food is delicious. 5. Miso soup, yum! 6. Natural energy. 7. Long life span. 8. Meat is murder. 9. I feel better than I have in YEARS. 10. Respect for the environment. I decided to become a vegetarian because people do NOT *need* to eat meat. Meat is so hard on your system- it basically rots inside there because the body can't break it down. I love all animals, and they do not deserve to die just to be on someone's dinner table. It sickens me to see all of the raw meat in grocery stores-digusting. I can live quite well on my vegetarian life and I'm not missing a thing. I have a lot of respect for vegans, but I love dairy products too much. And, as Morrissey says, "I don't eat my friends" (ANIMAL friends, people! Get your mind out of the gutter!) I'm so happy I've changed my diet and lifestyle- going on 20 years now. Being a veg! etarian is the most noble thing there is....Show more
