“I became vegetarian when I was 19 and as of the New Year I am totally vegan.

My husband and I just finished reading the Jonathan Safran Foer book Eating Animals and that just pushed me over the top. I didn’t eat fish, chicken, meat or dairy for years, but if there was a birthday cake or something, I wouldn’t worry about it too much. But once I read the book, the full portrait of what was going on really moved me more than I even wanted to be moved. I mean it sent me to a whole other level — my husband, as well. He calls himself a reluctant vegetarian. We’re just having a really hard time reconciling what we read with forgetting, which is what Safran-Foer says you have to do if you want to go back to the way you were — you have to forget the truth.”
