Besides shopping and the will power of maintaining a vegan diet, the hardest part for me is the social aspect we have surrounding food. When it comes to dinner with friends and family I always feel like such an inconvenience. They either feel obligated to cater to my vegan diet, or they are dissapointed that I don't partake of their lovingly prepared food. And when it comes to restaurants, my selection is always so limited so friends feel guilty when they want to pick a steak house or fast food restaurant that never had vegans in mind when creating the menus. My support of animal welfare doesn't come without a price I guess.
I sometimes wonder if it's worth the trouble ... then I think back onto the videos I've seen of animals being raised and slaughtered in such terrible ways, and I realize ... it's more than worth it.
