Cruelty-free? Or is it?

Some companies list their products as "cruelty-free", meaning no animal testing...yet the same products can contain animal ingredients and by-products.
That is a contradiction.

Products with ingredients that derive from animals, are NOT cruelty-free!
These animals had to endure slavery, abuse, torture, and murder.

Being a conscious consumer means researching products before you buy them. This includes both the testing practices and the ingredients in the products.

Non-veggies

As more years go by since I have been veg, it becomes increasingly harder for me to understand why people eat meat. For some people, it is because they are accustomed to eating as their parents did. Well, it is about time to think about your own diet.

I wish that more people would look into how animals are actually treated. The cows, chickens, turkeys, pigs, and any other animals used for meat production are abused and mistreated.

More people need to think about what they eat, and why they eat it.

Some times all it takes is a simple question to get people thinking: Why do you eat meat?

Think about it, do some research.

After you discover how animals are treated, you may no longer want to pay for that kind of abuse.

Earth Day

Going vegan is one of the best ways that people can help to save the planet.

Here are some reasons for "environmentalists" to go vegan:

1. More than 40% of the land mass in the U.S. is used to raise animals for meat production.
2. Animal production is responsible for more greenhouse gases than all of the forms of transportation in the world...combined!
3. Producing 1 lb. of animal protein requires 100 times more water than it takes to produce 1 lb. of grain protein.
4. You can't be an environmentalist if you eat meat!

Eating cruelty-free food (vegan food) is a BIG step to reducing your carbon footprint!
