Vegan?

As a vegetarian, I have noticed a characteristic about my diet that is very interesting.  Most of my meals are usually based around some sort of dairy or egg product.  For instance, most of my meals consist of cheese pizza, cheese and rice tacos, salads filled with eggs and cheddar cheese, vegetarian wraps and burritos, pasta, and cookies.  Dairy and egg products can play a positive or negative role for one's health, and these dairy products sometimes lead to several questions.  Do you consume cheese, eggs, or milk?  Are you fully committed to animal rights considering that you consume dairy?

There is a huge debate going on between vegetarians and vegans.  Vegans do not consume any animal products or by-products such as eggs or milk while vegetarians can consume by-products.  Because animal cruelty can happen from the production of eggs or milk, some vegans might propose that their diets are superior to vegetarian diets.  I have even heard a vegan say that vegetarians are uncommitted and lazy to their dietary ideas.  However, I have to disagree.  Vegetarianism does allow for more options, but we still have our restrictions, and we can be fully committed to our personal and spiritual goals and obligations if we just follow through.  

I want to know what it feels like to be a vegan.  I want to understand the vegan's side of the argument, and I believe the only way I can fully do that is by being a vegan.  I started to choose veganism for my project, but I love food products such as cereal, ice cream, and macaroni and cheese to such an extent that being a vegan for 28 days would be too difficult.  However, I am willing to give those precious food items away, and I can still be a vegan while being a vegetarian thus I will become a vegan for one day.  My followers might think I am crazy for tackling on more than what I have to do, but the idea of understanding veganism instead of attacking it excites me.  Vegetarianism is a beautiful tree with many branches, and tomorrow, I am reaching out to vegans.
