Here are the kids thoughts about all this...

Today was the last day of our
family’s Vegan Experience. I had a great time and it really helped me realize
what being a vegan is all about. I used to think that vegan meant eating only
tofu and vegetables, but now I know that it’s just a normal diet just like
everyone else. Anyway it has been fun. I want to keep having veggie burgers,
lots of noodles, and more fruits and veggies. I don’t like the tofu though :P…
I think its kind of weird. I like how I had more energy and didn’t feel bloated
all of the time. I’m sad that I messed up a couple times but I think it helped
because after I cheated, I felt crappy and wished I hadn’t cheated. I had fun
doing this. I really enjoyed our Vegan Experience.

Today
is the final day of the Vegan Experience. So far I feel like I have had an
amazing opportunity to make myself feel proud.
I
would like to keep eating things like the Veggie burgers, the spaghetti, and
the Baked Potatoes. We had treats that I would like to keep eating, Like the
Vegan Cupcakes that my mom made. They tasted as if an angel came from heaven
and handed them to us on a gold plate.
I
have enjoyed these wonderful past weeks that made my life change. I hope other
people look up to what we did and that they would consider trying what my
family and I tried. There were many days that made me stress and have to calm
down. But I still made it through. It was hard most of the time like when we
went to birthday parties and we had to just watch other people eat cake. Like I
said before, I still made it through.
We
should all thank the people who started to realize what the world was doing to
animals and did something about it.
Dillon,

Today was the final day of the vegan experience. I want to keep on having veggie
burgers, chicken patties (vegan ones) peanut butter sandwiches and fruit
leathers and my granola bars. I am
going to add back in cheese, but not too much because of my eczema. When I didn’t have cheese and milk
while we were vegan, my eczema went away pretty much all the way. I think I will sometimes eat meat. I will eat eggs for breakfast because
poached eggs are my favorite. I
feel proud of myself for doing this.
I felt good and it was hard.
I only failed once or twice.
We all did good. I am glad
we did the vegan experience.
