Is it cruel to the silkworms to have to weave all that silk for clothes?

I have a vegan friend, but I saw him eating a sandwich. The bread contains yeast (albeit dead). Yeast doesn't photosynthasise, so I would think of it as an animal rather than a plant. The yeast is only used to help the bread rise, but the yeast is never extracted, so the dead yeast cells still exist in the bread. Does this not mean that vegans can't eat bread? Can any vegans out there enlighten me?

I see this caption most of the times at the end of the movies. I believe this is monitored by "American Humane society".

In the above case, is my assumption true that all of the people in that organization are strict vegitarians or are those like discussing about 'animal rights' over a lunch with a 'yummy' tender loin chops?

I have searched all over the Web and have found close to nothing, although I did find a few restaurants that served it, so know it's possible. I can easily substitute margerine for butter in a conventional Molten Lava Cake recipe, but eggs are a pretty essential element. I'm stuck. Any suggestions?

I am changing my diet to a healthier vegetarian type diet- maybe some fish on occasion... not quite certain yet. I would love a few tried and tested recipes that you find delicious. We are beginning our lives together as a new couple and we both wish to change to a healthy diet for life.
Thank you kindly- and any other recipes or info appreciated!

I've been contemplating vegetarianism for many years now but with so many intestinal issues I figure why bother? I primarily have IBS with constipation--not that anyone needed to know that. My doctor has suggested vegetarianism to relieve the constipation, but so much of the vegetarian diet consists of such gassy foods. Does anyone have any advice for me?

I dont mean feeding them salad, i mean like commercial vegan dog/cat food that is designed to be enough.
http://www.vegancats.com/pages/1001/Ordering-Product_Info.htm
I wonder if it is ethical to force a vegan diet on a cat or dog?
I will not like answers from people who think a vegan diet is unhealthy for a person even because its been proven to be healthy if done right. But these animals are carnivores by nature, what do you think?

I was reading that vegetarianism is a behavioral variable where the individual chooses a different food source, because animals who have one food source are at a detriment. But humans, being from a type of ape, have the survival benefit of eating all types of foods. And to basically be sure of it, some individuals, it can be surmised ones with better genetic materials, have been imbued with a sense to take food from different sources in order to basically keep the body more fit. This doesnnt mean the children will inherit it. Because evolution can only occur from change-- change of the environment and food sources are the biggest things which can cause evolution to occur. I was wondering what you guys thought of this.

I read this in History of Vegetarianism by Colin Spencer. Very good book so far. Any comments or suggestions for further reading? Thanks. :)

Im visiting the US in march and my baby is alergic to cows milk and soya, hes fine on goats and has a bottle of it every night and for cereal etc, i'm also alergic to cows and use goats as a substitue. when i was in PA last year i found a wal-mart store that did stock it, this year they said they dont! and without a product code i cant trace which other wal-marts may stock it!

please could you check your wal-mart fresh dairy isle its usually hidden on the milk isle next to creams etc.

or can you please check your local store to see if they stock it or know a supplier?

i am going to be living in MD for some months and really need to find someone that stocks goats milk! there must be somewhere that does! even if i have to get it shipped from out of state and freeze it would be a help!

i will be living in cumberland MD its close to the PA and West Virginia border and i am fying in via washington DC so i could pick up from any of these areas!

thank you for you help

I have been a vegetarian for 2 years, and I dont really ge tthe nutrition I need. I guess I am what you would call a Doritos and Coke Vegetarian. I basically just eat cereal alot and dont really eat supper. I would like to improve what I eat so I dont get sick as often and have problems later on. Can somebody help me actualy figure out a meal plan. It needs to be a breakfast I can grab and go, a lunch I can take to school(i have acess to a microwave there) and then anything for supper. And I do eat morningstar farms food sometimes. I also cant really have dairy products, we thnink im a bit lactose intollerant and we are trying to figure out if ill stop having stomachaches if I stop having dairy products. So any reciped would be appreciatted and just give me a sample day menu
