Hey fellow Steemians & DTubers!
I thought it would be fun to do the “Vegan Tag” to introduce myself to the community.

Are you vegan / vegetarian / veg-curious? Let me know what questions YOU have so I can answer them in a future video! :)

VEGAN TAG - 22 QUESTIONS:

Tofu or seitan? Tofu
Favorite vegetable: Broccoli
Favorite vegan documentary: Speciesism
Favorite vegan artist: Jason Mraz
How many animal companions do you have? What are their names?: None atm
Which farm animal do you connect with the most? (P.S. we know you love them all): Cows - specifically Rose the Cow @ “Goats with Horns” Animal Sanctuary in Gilbert, AZ
Coffee, tea, or hot chocolate?: Hot chocolate! w/ coconut + almond milk
Ever been to an animal rights protest?: I attended a vigil outside a slaughterhouse in Arizona and bore witness to cows on trucks being transported to their deaths.
Pizza or burgers?: Burgers. Every day for lunch.
Extra avocado or no avocado?: Extra! But only if it’s good. If too ripe or not ripe enough, no thanks.

Best vegan meal you’ve ever had: So many… probably Thanksgiving. That was my favorite holiday growing up, and I’ve managed to recreate all my favorite comfort foods in a vegan version.
Favorite ice cream flavor: Mango
Any vegan family members besides you?: Yes! Husband <333
What’s your own unique form of animal rights activism? Cooking and sharing vegan food? Sharing information? Putting vegan stickers in grocery stores? etc.:
Cooking and sharing vegan food, for sure! Most people I talk to want to improve their diet and do the “right thing”, but they have no idea what to eat. When I show them how I eat, their minds start to open up.
What vegan gift would you love to receive?: For someone else to go vegan that I’ve inspired in any way!
No vegan friends (yet) or are you lucky af?: Yes! Several, but none that live close to me.
On a scale of 1-1000 how tired are you of arguments against veganism?: I used to get really angry and frustrated about it. Then I realized that I was once like them and that it takes a compassionate approach to get people to wake up. But sometimes I still get frustrated and annoyed.
