can someone explain vegan to me

[labazs]

i have not eaten meat and fish for a long time and i am wondering about being vegan. i know no leather shoes dont wear those i know no cows milk dont mind rice oat soy milk etc but its eggs that are a sticking point. would i have to give up eggs altogether? at the moment eggs are a main source of food for me i dont eat cheese at the moment due to being with sw but i am assuming if i want to you can get vegain cheese its just the eggs that are a source of confusion to me

The egg substitute I saw I think you could do scrambled egg or omelettes with it. I think it might have been in Planet Organic. I go there occasionally and I think it would be something they would do

Great replies. Thanks everyone.

Anyone got any ideas on the clothing issue, other than buying second hand? It stills seems better to use a by-product of an industry that exists and is sustainable and biodegradable ie: animal food production, than a by-product of the oil industry which lasts a million years.

Have you seen how leather is tanned?

Tanning involves toxic chemicals including chromium.

Watch Erin Brockovitch to see how friendly chromium is

Although there are laws in the US, the UK and Europe which prevent unlawful contamination of the environment by the chemicals used in tanning, all these countries turn a blind eye to how leathers, skins and furs are produced in the countries they import from.

Secondhand goods, recycled materials and overall reduction in demand is better than buying new.
