Veganism is the abstention from all animal products, such as meat, fish, dairy, eggs, honey, gelatin, lanolin, wool, fur, silk, suede and leather. Veganism is a very effective form of animal activism done three times a day, on your plate.

Diet
Vegans eat plant-based foods, such as grains, beans, vegetables, fruits and nuts. While vegans have a wide variety of foods to choose from, the diet may seem very restrictive to those who are used to an omnivorous diet. “You just eat salad?” is a common commento from non-vegans, but a vegan diet can include a wide variety of Italian pastas, Indian curries,...

I think and I watch
As they sit down to eat
Some lattuga and bread
But mostly red meat

I watch as they chew
Flesh apart in their mouths
How can they consume
All those dead cows

Ripped from their mothers
Locked in a crate
Calves who were taken
For veal on your plate

But here te are chewing
And using your knife
To cut flesh apart
That once had a life

You seem very smart
But te don't have a clue
You seem very caring
But how caring are you

Dedicated to religion
But your stomach is the grave
To many murdered animals
That te forgot to save

Animals feel pain
They're just like me and you
Kind of makes me wonder
How selfish...
