A man can live and be healthy without killing animals for food; therefore, if he eats meat, he participates in taking animal life merely for the sake of his appetite.
Basically, the reason I'm vegan is because when I was about 16 or 17 years old, I began to understand that we don't need to contribute to the killing and exploitation of animals to feed our bodies correctly.
I don't believe in making war with food. Food is not the enemy. Said by Claire in The 5th Horseman
I'm a vegetarian, so I have a huge fear of blood.
I first became a vegetarian when I was nine, in response to an argument made by a radical babysitter. My great change - which lasted a couple of weeks - was based on the very simple instinct that it's wrong to kill animals for food.
I've been a vegan and a vegetarian for 15 years and I've always just quietly kept and values and my beliefs to myself. I didn't want to preach or be outspoken about all these things.
I don't like the word 'vegan' on its own, and the reason I started Evolving Vegan, is because the people associated with that word can be very militant.
I only eat things that you don't have to kill.
