About to begin...Vegan Journey


I am finding in my preparations for eating vegan, that there is going to be alot of label reading ahead, if I decide to buy any ready-made products. The vegetarian cheese that I bought to try out last week, I just discovered has casein in it. Which is a dairy product and although vegetarian, is not vegan. I am in the process of checking the labels on several items that I already have in the pantry to see if I can continue eating them or not. So far the frozen waffles and pretzels and crackers that we now have all contain milk. Oh well. I didn't really like the waffles anyway. lol I am enjoying learning more about foods, and can't wait to begin experimenting with the new recipes that I have found. Tomorrow is the day! Stay tuned.

You know, I've been the last three days without meat. i've been making an effort to eat whole grains and/or high fiber. I'm trying to break free of my love for carbs and eat healthier. I've only told 3 people with you being one of them.
