Activities You Can Do this Vegan Month

We often hear the phrase, "you are what you eat". Well, is it true? It may not literally point the idea out but it does imply one fact, and that is to be fit and healthy, one must eat good food. This whole month of November, the world will be observing World Vegan Month. It is basically an annual event which starts at November 1, otherwise known as the World Vegan Day, commemorating the day in which the word "vegan" was created and The Vegan Society established.

Vegan or veganism is embracing the concept of abstaining from the use of any animal products, particularly when it comes to diet. In the standard vegan diet, the absence of any kind of meat including dairy products such as eggs, butter and cheese is found. One of the simple things you may do this Vegan Month is to simply include one vegan dish on your daily menu, whether it's for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Vegan dishes don't taste bad as what people mostly connote. I, for a fact, a self-declared carnivorous, loves to eat Mushroom Burger. Mushroom like tofu has the same distinct taste you can find in meat. There are other vegan dishes such as Vegetarian Bean and Barley Vegetable Soup, Vegetarian Tofu "Fish" Sticks and Apricot Pasta Salad.
