“Veganism is not a sacrifice. It is a joy.” – Gary L. Francione
Everybody loves eating. No one can deny that.
Although I’m a lover of non-vegetarian food items, I eat vegan food too because of the unique tastes it provides.
I usually eat healthy vegan food a lot while staying in a city because I will only get non-fresh, non-vegetarian items to buy there. But whenever I have a chance to stay in some villages during my travel, I enjoy eating fresh non-vegetarian food items.
Actually, to be frank, I love food more than anything, whether it is non-vegetarian, vegetarian, or vegan. Not only me, but everyone enjoys eating.
