If a GM hears, \u201cThere needs to be more vegan options\u201d once a day for a week\u2014I will bet you within two weeks he will add vegan options or at least begin researching veganism, which may lead him or her to go vegan themselves.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-12766 size-full\" title=\"Vegan Burger at GustOrganics\" src=\"https:\/\/www.happycow.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/AB594D3C9107.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"405\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.happycow.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/AB594D3C9107.png 500w, https:\/\/www.happycow.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/AB594D3C9107-300x243.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Us vegans tend to hang with our own\u2014but if we want to make a change then we need to \u201cmingle with the enemy\u201d so to speak. Now, they aren\u2019t literally our enemy but rather they are people who need guidance. A teacher doesn\u2019t teach someone who already knows\u2014but rather someone who hasn\u2019t learned. As a vegan, I learned that playing it safe and eating at only vegan restaurants in NYC is great because I support these businesses, but if I want to be a component of change then I need to voice myself in the most unlikely of places. I know it\u2019s a struggle as a vegan to eat in an omnivorous place. Is there fish oil in this? Was there cross-contamination? Is this really soymilk? Trust me, I get it. But I can promise you that without a struggle there can be no change. Do you think MLK felt like explaining why <em>Separate But Equal<\/em> was not working to his white counter parts? Do you think Gandi enjoyed his hunger strikes? The answer is \u201cno\u201d but they knew that these struggles were necessary for the bigger change. I\u2019m not saying that you need to eat out at omnivorous places all the time\u2014but do realize that only we can shift the paradigm of restaurant supply and demand. We just need to ask.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-12768 size-full\" title=\"Vegan dessert at GustOrganics\" src=\"https:\/\/www.happycow.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Screen-Shot-2015-03-27-at-8.40.37-PM.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"301\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.happycow.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Screen-Shot-2015-03-27-at-8.40.37-PM.png 300w, https:\/\/www.happycow.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Screen-Shot-2015-03-27-at-8.40.37-PM-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.happycow.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Screen-Shot-2015-03-27-at-8.40.37-PM-299x300.png 299w, https:\/\/www.happycow.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Screen-Shot-2015-03-27-at-8.40.37-PM-90x90.png 90w, https:\/\/www.happycow.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Screen-Shot-2015-03-27-at-8.40.37-PM-36x36.png 36w, https:\/\/www.happycow.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Screen-Shot-2015-03-27-at-8.40.37-PM-115x115.png 115w, https:\/\/www.happycow.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Screen-Shot-2015-03-27-at-8.40.37-PM-120x120.png 120w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I promise to become the first professional \u201cveganizer\u201d of NYC.
