Chris,
I haven't been following this thread for the past week and I'm not caught up yet.
I'm a little confused by the above paragraph. Are you vegan or
lacto-ovo-vegetarian? It sounds like the latter to me, but I wanted to be sure.
FYI, I've been vegan(1) for almost six years and veg for a while before that. I
didn't think there was someone else close to my dietary habits on this board(2).
Ok- I'm going to try to catch up on this thread now...
-chris
1- except for the occasional mistakes/errors, or course. There was that time
I was free-gan too.
2- based on data collected in WAMALUG meetings and the excitement over mcdonalds
sets.
