"I think I could actually. I think that when I’m thinking about what I eat and meal prepping probably 50/60% of what I eat is vegetarian/vegan so could be done with reasonable adjustments and consideration. I also think the money would be a motivation and after 2 months I’d look and feel a lot better in myself. The things I’d struggle with are pizza and garlic flatbread " Make your own, you can get dairy free cheese for pizza and flatbread you can make or get a plain one and use dairy free spread + mashed garlic and spread on. Dead easy. | |||

"So basically you mean vegitarian?" Eh, no there is a very significant difference. As a vegan, you don not eat or drink any food that was an animal, or contains things derived or sourced from animals. So in addition to no meat, you wouldn't consume, or consume products containing: Dairy products (milk, cheese, eggs, etc) Honey Gelatin, etc. Before I went vegan, it's that additional list that I felt I'd struggle with. I'd already been reducing meat consumption in my diet. It takes planning, organising and always having your reading glasses in the supermarket, but you soon get into the swing of things. While I was a dairy monster, I think for a lot of people contemplating a total switch the area they would struggle with the most is alcohol. A huge amount of alcoholic drinks contain things such as rennet, which of course is enzymes sourced from the stomach of ruminant animals. Eating out is actually one of the easiest things to do. While some chains are better than others, many now have excellent vegan options, and some like Waggamama are moving more of their menu to vegan. While you might struggle at your favourite boutique restaurant interestingly the Michelin Guide have just awarded a star to a vegan restaurant for the first time. Yes, there are other aspects of life whee the vegan philosophy extends. Clothing is the obvious one. No more leather hot pants for me! I won't be disposing of items that use animal products, but when they reach the end of their usefulness their replacements will be vegan. I'm looking at you, leather satchel, sofas and belt! Oh, and shoes! As some of you will now, I'm a photographer and film uses gelatine in binding the emulsion to the celluloid. To date, no effective alternative has been found. That was enough to take me from 99% digital to 100% digital, and abandon any plans to get into large format photography. There will be areas and times where you cannot avoid animal products, or have them accidentally. Where you miss milk on the ingredients list (it's in unexpected places) or unavoidable (flu vaccines grown in eggs, but that's changing). My motivation was threefold. For my health, the environment, and animal welfare. Overpopulation means we are at the point where our existing diet and food production methods are no sustainable, and we are absolutely destroying the planet in a race to oblivion. We must change our ways while we still have time. If people want to know more, then there are three great documentaries "Forks over Knives", "Conspiracy" and "What the Health" worthy of viewing. | |||

"For £10,000 could you go vegan (food) for a whole year? " It would be an interesting challenge... As an omnivorous individual.
