Vegan

Here’s some confusion I have with vegetarians/vegans, mostly vegans. And mostly people who do it for health reasons, not for animal rights purposes. If you are a vegetarian/vegan because  you love animals, this post is in no way

discussing you.

 

I have seen countless times, recipes for cakes and pies and cookies and bars and all sorts of sugary, sweet things that, I agree, are delicious. But let’s be honest, they’re  not good for you. But here we have vegans not eating any animal product for health reasons, but they’re scarfing down desserts. Like that’s good for you! I’m eating these desserts that are high in fat, sugar, cards and have no nutrients in them, but at least I didn’t have an egg! It’s such a contradiction.

 

I just think all the health nuts are focusing on the wrong things. We want to be healthy but we’re beating around the issue. The issue is that most of us consume too much food and aren’t active enough and the foods we eat are high in fat and sugar. It’s not that we’re eating eggs, chicken, beef, etc. We just don’t want to have to give up our Starbucks, YOBE, and all other things yummy.

 

Bring it ‘round.
