What vegans like us eat

Would you like to know what vegans like us eat? For breakfast we eat Miniwheats without gelatin, honey, or any kind of non-vegan thing. We also eat raisin bran or drink a smoothie. For lunch we have a peanut-butter-and jelly sandwich with vegan bread, beans, peas, a vegan trail mix, and Kale and Yam soup. We drink Silk almond milk for lunch. But I cannot name all of them because there are a lot of possibilities. For dinner on Sundays, Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays we eat a salad, a vegan pizza, some Sierra Mist,a vegan cheese sandwich, our wheat gluten 'chicken nuggets', and African Kale and Yam soup. Sierra mist is a vegan soda. We do not always eat some of things listed that we have for dinner earlier. On Fridays we choose any vegan food we have or can make at home.

Why vegans don't go to animal circuses

Would you like to know why vegans don't go to animal circuses? That is because at first the elephants are trained at Ringling's breeding center with ropes and bullhooks. It hurts the elephants. It is a painful and very bad for the elephants. The elephants only do tricks because they are scared of what will happen to them if they don't.
It starts when baby elephant's necks are tied up to an 'anchor' elephant. The anchor elephant is the bigger elephant that pulls the baby along. The baby elephants don't like it because it hurts them. Then the are chained up in the barn for at least 23 hours a day. That ruins the elephants mind. A baby is roped by itself in the barn. It struggles, but just gets rope burns. It might take 6 months before they stop struggling. Ringling's breeding center is just a place that tortures animals and makes them learn silly tricks. The trainers whip the elephants to make them learn to do their tricks. The baby elephants are slammed to the ground. The trainers slam them to the ground with bullhooks and electric prods. They train it to lie down with ropes. The baby elephants are slammed to the ground using bullhooks and electrical prods. The baby elephants are trained to sit on a tub with ropes, chains, bullhooks, and electric prods. And the baby elephants are never rewarded like Ringling's breeding center claims. They are only punished.
I think it is terrible that the baby elephants are treated this way and taken from their natural homes. The elephants don't want to do tricks at circuses. The baby elephants are just used to make money. The circus owners don't care about their animals. All they care about is getting rich.

Vegan difficulties at holidays

I'd like to tell you why it is hard to go trick-or-treating on Halloween and what you can have on Thanksgiving instead of turkey, cranberry jelly, gravy, and stuffing. It is hard to go trick-or-treating on Halloween because you have to read the ingredients very carefully(see my blog post on The hardest part about being a vegan). If you would like to see a list of vegan Halloween candies, click here. If you are an all-natural vegan, then it is even harder to find vegan candy. At home we make our own candy. Two of our favorites are peanut-butter cups and junior mints. On Thanksgiving, you can have a bread feast or any other kind of feast. For a feast, you can make a lot of different kinds of whatever you chose. We might make a lot of different breads next Thanksgiving. My favorite is the pumpkin bread. Another idea would be to have a soup feast. My favorite is the African Kale and Yam soup.

The hardest part about being a vegan

These are some of hardest parts of being a vegan. One is that you may have to give up some foods you really enjoyed. Another is that it makes it difficult to go out to eat because most restaurants do not serve vegan foods. The final thing is that you have to read labels very carefully because some things sound vegan but they really are not. For example, gelatin sounds vegan but it is actually crushed animal bones.

What Dad's vegan chocolate ice cream is made of.

The ingredients to Dad's vegan chocolate ice cream are of the following: 1 cup of almond milk, 2 tablespoons of arrowroot powder, 2 cups of mimic creme, 3/4 a cup of sugar, 1/4 a cup of cocoa powder, 1/2 a cup of vegan chocolate chips, and1 tablespoon of vanilla extract. This ice cream is better then the non-vegan ice cream I used to have. It is creamier than the old kind. I like to add chocolate syrup (which we call 'grandpa sauce' in honor of Grandpa Phillips because he loved hot fudge sauce) and brownies.
