The Dreamcatcher: Why do people hate vegetarians... →
wiltedporcelain:
There was an article on the BBC News website asking whether vegetarians would be willing to eat test tube hamburgers.
Someone commented on it ‘If vegetarians can eat this meat as it doesn’t harm animals, what will they now do make themselves feel superior to the rest of society?’

Brighton VegFest →
I’m so excited to go to VegFest this year in Brighton! This is my first year as a vegan, and I am lucky enough to live within travelling distance of Brighton, so I will be heading down and exploring all the stalls, caterers and organisations there.
