RE: Hi everyone! So excited to join Steemit!
Hi WElcome to the vegan community love the stir fry, looks pretty healthy to me. If you are living plant based diet there is n need to stress about it because its all healthy however there are many pre-packaged vegan products that are not, including refined and processed foods, i dont think these should be encouraged tbh because we have already been poisoned enough by modern culture. Plant based is about staying natural and healthy to give our bodies the optimum nutrition they need to function. hope i'll see some more amazing recipes like this from you ✌️
Hi! Thanks so much!! I'm so happy to be here, everyone has been so nice and welcoming.
Hahahha you're probably right about the packaged foods, but they just taste soooo good and I can't help but get excited about any vegan products :) I'm a vegan for ethical reasons, so it's a bit hard for me to find the motivation to be super healthy (sugar addict all the way - even managed to slip sweet pineapple and agave into a veggie stir fry ), but I'll keep trying :)
Thanks so much for watching!!!
If you are a vegan for ethical reasons, all the more reasons to stay away from some of these packaged goods, basically it depends if they are made by small companies, organic growers, sustainable sources and using natural ingredients? But for instance in the UK the supermarket giant Tesco does a whole range of vegan products, but i cant support that, because the shop itself is unethical, they stock meat products contributing to the ethical/environmental problems on the planet. It might be convenient they stock vegan products so more people are enticed to veganism but then they are missing the point about the ethical side. sorry if im a bit hardcore, im a food anarchist and purist, i think we need to boycott the big companies and support the small guys. nothing wrong with sweet tooth there are many natural and more sustainable and healthier sugar alternatives, like agave, coconut sugar and molasses are super good (than white refined sugar that tends to be unethical). tbh i used to have sweet tooth but since I became the vegan i am today i dont crave it as i used to.

And thanks so much for the resteem!!!!! :)
