I rarely catch up to my friends list at all, so it’s ever rarer that I bother to check out my friendsfriends page. Other than some amusing phone chat log commentary, I can’t say I found much to recommend it. =)
Also, The North Country Co-op is cool. I noticed, though that they tended to put the meat and the tofu/fake meat close together. I didn’t think about it when I found the cheaper yogurt drink next to the cultured soy drink, I just assumed it was soy, bought it, and didn’t check the ingredients until after I’d made it half way through. Oops. I finished it anyway. It was pretty tasty, and my stomach hasn’t rebelled. I’m not likely to make that same mistake twice, but…
For those of you who criticize my dietary choices on a gustatory basis, it may please you to hear that I now acknowledge that I’m taking a flavor and texture hit on several different things*. But my veganism isn’t a choice I made for reasons of taste. And the reasons I don’t eat animal products trump the reasons I would.
* = I thought steak was nasty even when I ate meat regularly, but I had an inexplicable fondness for mcdonald’s hamburgers.
