My Vegan Month: Day 30

Posted by John on September 30th, 2010 at 11:46 am · 7 Comments

Big Breakfast at Mother's Kitchen.

I had planned to carefully document my vegan experiment this month, but I got recruited into a last minute (and very very fun but intense) project that’s gobbled up most of my discretionary time. I’m writing this quick post because several of you have followed up on me during the past two weeks, and I feel I owe you all at least this short update.

The month is nearly over, and I am still holding myself to the vegan standard, though I’ve lost grip on my added restriction to eat healthily. It’s been both easier and harder than I expected. I can’t say much more without processing, so I’ll save that for the wrap-up post, which I should be able to write this weekend.

I’ll leave you all with a question: many folks have asked me, what are you going to eat on October 1st. I’m going to turn that around on you: can you guess (generally or specifically) what I’ll dine on tomorrow? What would you recommend, and why?

    I see sushi in your future!

    Whatever it is, I’d wrap a couple of layers of bacon around it!

    Well, I think you should make a rockin’ vegan pizza.

    Those are great questions at the end. My initial thought was to say maybe start with a chicken broth based meal, but I like Gregory’s idea of a vegan pizza! :)

    Gosh, I was just wondering how the month went for you, and was literally JUST about to call or email and say, “hey!” but short of that, it’s Oct 1st now. While I may be inclined to suggest all sorts of meals you’ve not had in one month, and sushi did come to mind first (!), I suspect you might simply dine the same way you did for the last 30 days. I look forward to your further postings!

    I’ve been transitioning into veganism for a few months now…slowly doing it. I’ve loved the results!
