I'll start!

B: bran sticks and oat milk, glass of OJ.
L: Hummus and tomato toastie.
D: Stir fry: pepper, courgette, onion, garlic, ginger, carrot and Quorn chicken-style pieces, noodles and lots of soy sauce. First time I've tried the chicken-style pieces; they were on offer. Nice and low cal/high protein, but nothing special in terms of taste.
Snacks: apple, banana, bombay mix.

Driving between campsites in the outback so almost entirely soy lattes and peanut butter sprinkled with trail mix.

Huge derail but if there are any omnivores in you life whom you have light-hearted vegan Vs Omni bantz with feel free to use this one; in a devils advocatey mood DP tried out the "but animals eat other animals in the wild" argument on me. After several minutes of good-natured sparring, I informed DP the next time he's monched on by a mosquito I would remind him of his food-chain argument but bursting into a spontaneous rendition of "Circle of Life" from the Lion King. Happy to report each occurrence of [bzzzZZZZZzzz]... "Bugger!" [SLAP!] in the past few days has been immediately followed by "NAAAAAAAAAnts ingonyama...bagathi Baba...!" (Questionable pronunciation obv)

Grin have a good day fellow vegans.

Hanging What you need to remind people who criticise your veganism is to ask them what a cow or sheep or a gorilla eat, they are all large strong animals who eat only plants. They are ill if they 're given meat. remember BSE? Also humans don't eat cats or foxes because they are mostly carnivores.

Sn. S. cucumber, yeast flakes, fresh spelt baguette sandwiches. Fruit later.
