EDIT: I have had a lot of very negative responses to this post. I am not one to just efface entries just because of conflict, although I do like to avoid friction as much as possible. I guess because this is an internet setting and you don't actually know me, my comment on the vegetarian eggs actually seemed to stir a few of you up

somebody bought me moisturiser once because it said "no animal testing, no animal byproducts".

it contained milk and honey...

[therevsoup]

Milk and honey don't come from animals! They're grown from spores!

it means the chickens were fed an all vegetarian/animal byproduct free diet.

but yea, the way they have it is kind of weird.

whoah whoah, kinda insulting. i was a vegetarian before going vegan, which i think a lot of people do. it didn't take me a "long time", to go vegan. and it's not like vegetarians are stupid, i think everyone knows exactly what eggs are.

[muero_de_risa]

i was vegetarian before going vegan, and omni before that, as that's how i was raised. i just mean to say that a lot of people go decades being solely vegetarians, which doesn't take much effect on the world or their health.

[curseoflostdays]

you're awfully high on the vegan horse, aren't ya?

I hate the "I love your icon" comments you see all the time.

But seriously, I love your icon.

You're all wrong. Milk and eggs come from little green men from mars. Geeeeeeessss....

[trbulnt_spnstr]

i don't think anybody is confused and mislead about eggs being from animals. That line is about what the animals were fed.

[muero_de_risa]

it's still humorous! take your grumpy pants off!

Thanks for making this lengthy response. It really got me thinking. I was vegan for a while and then I stopped being vegan. Now, I've been a vegetarian for 11 or 12 years, (some extremely long time for a 21 year old whose family isn't vegetarian). When I became vegan I started being a self righteous asshole. When I stopped being vegan it really helped me stop being a self righteous asshole. A lot of my friends tell me I should be able to be both vegan and not be self righteous. For me, though, it's hard to do that. I always say I'd rather be a nice person who accepts that she can't follow all her morals than an asshole who does. Your comment helped me see that I made a positive decision in slowing down my process to become vegan. I really appreciate that. I'm on my way to being vegan again, and without being a jerk in the process this time, I hope.

Thanks a lot!
