More About Me

Reasons why I prefer to eat vegetarian or vegan:

I first became a vegetarian for health reasons. I found that my diet of meat, dairy and other processed foods had caused me to become sick. However, the more I studied I realized that this was also God's intended diet for us. I studied zealously about being a vegetarian and its benefits. I noticed that once I changed my diet, my health improved so what I had been studying was tried and true. I was also exposed to learning the truth about the unhealty conditions of animal farms and the abuse done to the animals that are placed on our tables everyday through PETA and other sources. After learning about all the antibiotics, hormones and other chemicals fed to animals its no wonder our bodies have become degenerated with such a diet.

I joined HappyCow Members Community because:

I've known about Happy Cow for months, I've just never become a member. I love going on the site for vegetarian restaurant listings and other great resources.

Here are some places I've been that I liked... and places that I would like to visit one day:

I'm not a fan of being on the beaches, especially in NY because the air and water is not clean. But for some reason, when I'm in the Caribbean or in Mexico I love the beaches. I'm hoping to one day go to Costa Rica or Belize and explore the vegetarian hide-aways there.

Some of my favorite veg*n foods include:

I love raw vegan salads. The combinations are endless. I've never had raw string beans before, especially when combined in salads but it never bores me. In actuality, there are too many to mention. But if its raw or vegan, I'm willing to try. I don't think I have one favorite in particular.

Here are some books, movies, magazines, and my favorites that I would recommend to other HappyCow members:
