Great Site to Aid Transition to Vegan
Aloha Fellow Essenes and our Internet Friends! I have come across a really novel pro-vegan internet site called "Meatout Mondays" . If you are new to the vegan lifestyle, I think this site could be a really usefu. It is also a great way to introduce your carnivore family and friends to some tasty veggie food. They have some really yummy recipes and practical advice. The premise of the site is to motivate people to take one day off from meat a week. When you sign up for the newsletter, they will send you a meat-less recipe on Friday that you can make on Monday.
To us who go meatless every day, this may seem like a small step. But small steps lead to bigger steps. Many people are at a loss of how to live without animal products in their diet. I can't count the number of times people have been dumbfounded when I tell them I eat no meat, no milk products and no eggs. They just look at me blankly and say, "What DO you eat?" One meatless day a week is a painless way to introduce the general population this new way of living. Think what a tremendous impact it would make if every person took one day off from animal product! I read somewhere that most people have an average of 9 to 14 main course recipes that they eat. So after 9 to 14 weeks of Meatout Mondays, the average person would have the menu ammunition to transform completely to the Vegan lifestyle. How cool is that!
Check out the site!
