After seeing how horrible the conditions were, I couldn\u2019t justify letting animals suffer and die for me to eat them when there are so many other cruelty free options. I was a vegetarian for 2 years and then I transitioned to complete vegan a year ago and I can\u2019t imagine ever going back to meat. My interest and tireless advocation for vegetarianism has convinced several family members and friends to try more meatless options as well. Being a vegetarian and then a vegan actually sparked my interest in food; that\u2019s why I\u2019m pursuing a degree in nutrition. I\u2019m excited to graduate with this degree so I can teach people that meat is not only something they can live without, but that they\u2019ll thrive on a diet of mainly vegetables, fruits, legumes, and grains.
