why vegan

i just found this great video with many good reasons to go vegan
VEGAN. for the people. for the planet. for the animals.

it's almost 12 min long but its really good. i've been thinking a lot more about taking that step from vegetarian to vegan. i decided earlier this week i'm no longer gonna buy cheese. we can afford cheezly occasionally and i'll just learn to eat less of it. i'm still gonna buy my free range eggs for now and i'm gonna make more of an effort when we go out to eat to find vegan things on the menu (i usually end up going for something really creamy and cheesy when we go out). there really isn't any reason to eat dairy other than convience when we go out (at home we can easily make a vegan version of any food).
