VEGANS AND VEGETARIANS (This could apply to you too, meat-eaters!):

Being veg does not necessarily mean you’re healthy.

Many people who transition to an animal-free diet automatically go out and buy every meat and cheese substitute they can find, without giving the label or ingredients a second thought. We shouldn’t be trying to imitate meat, we should instead be giving our body the fuel it needs by eating a whole food plant-based diet.

Learn to love fruits and veggies, whole grains, beans & lentils, nuts & seeds!

Ditch the processed foods, sugar, junk food, and fast food.

Yeah, it’s definitely not necessary to eat all these processed things.  Sometimes it’s worse than eating meat, if the meat is locally-raised and all that noise.  It’s like…”so what do you eat?”  Um.  Everything else.  There’s kind of a lot out there, unless you require a specific diet to suit your medical needs.  And that would probably be so much harder than giving up meat.

(yes, I do see that this comes from a very privileged standpoint)
