Ex-Veg*ns

[Guest guest]

I'd just like ot add my $0.02 to the discussion of

ex-veg*ns. Yesterday, after I'd been reading about

this topic and thinking about it, one of my co-workers

announced she'd decided to start eating chicken again

(she was a pescatarian) because her new boyfriend

convinced her it was no different from eating eggs!!

 

Needless to say, I did my best to persuade her not to

eat chicken (and possibly forgo eggs), but to no

avail. She is the latest in the series of ex-veg*ns

(including some ex-vegan l-o vegetarians) I've

encountered of late (several on dates, ug), so i'm

really excited about the possibility of developing a

resource for these folks...though I agree that we

might need to use different tactics for people with

different reasons (actually I think using a variety

of tactics is probably good for any " conversion "

attempt). If anyone is working on a flier or other

resource, let me know how I can help!

 

peace, abbi

 

P.S. I'm still working on vegan croissants, if anyone

is waiting with baited breath.

Hi all,

 

Yes, Abbi, I am definitely interested in putting together a brochure on

this phenomenon!

 

If anyone else is interested in contributing to this effort, either with

input or as a reviewer, do email me. I would be open to hosting a

discussion on this over dinner at Golden Era or we can all get together

over coffee or something.

 

I just started reading (after glowing recommendations from a couple of

folks who became vegan in the last few years) Living Among Meat Eaters.

Although I've only gotten as far as the 2nd chapter, I'm thinking that

might also be an interesting basis for this type of discussion.

 

cheers,

Tammy
