More About Me

Reasons why I prefer to eat vegetarian or vegan:

Firstly for the animals, secondly for the environment, thirdly for the health of humanity and the economy, finally for my health.

I joined HappyCow Members Community because:

To make new vegan friends.

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

San Francisco was very nice and had many vegan/vegetarian restaurants. I've been to Japan a few times, the land of tasty and inexpensive tofu =) Also, the best vegetarian sushi ever, nowhere else compares to the taste of it in Japan. One day I want to visit Australia and New Zealand.

Some of my favorite veg*n foods include:

Tofurkey's italian sausages, anything from Sweets from the Earth.

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

Forks over Knives is the only documentary I've found that isn't focused on animal cruelty as a reason to be vegetarian. If you ever want to introduce someone to the idea without trying to convince them to watch graphic imagery, this is the movie I'd recommend. If they can sit through graphic imagery, Peacable Kingdom is a great one, makes me cry every time, but it convinced my Mom to be pescetarian.
