Without pushing an agenda (okay, maybe I've pushed a bit), I've spread a little veganism wherever I've gone.

It's easy to be convincing when the food is delicious. It doesn't feel like a sacrifice--it feels like a step up. ↗

There is something about veganism that is not easy, but the difficulty is not inherent in veganism, but in our culture. ↗

Why don't you like the foods I like?" he asks sometimes. "Why don't you like the foods I make?" I answer. ↗
