http://meansoybean.com/2009/10/an-awkward-episode/ a vegan blog about nothing in particular... ok, fine, it's mostly about the food Tue, 15 May 2012 01:07:45 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 http://meansoybean.com/2009/10/an-awkward-episode/comment-page-1/#comment-36 Anna Thu, 15 Oct 2009 10:18:10 +0000 http://meansoybean.com/?p=840#comment-36 I'm sorry you were put on the spot like that, I often wonder why people are so defensive about veganism, perhaps they are uncomfortable with what they eat or just don't want to consider where their food is coming from or what it is. I have a very healthy vegan 2 year old so yes to vegan babies! lol My 6 year old is mainly vegan but is now asking to be completely vegan which makes me very happy. The cases of 'vegan' parents 'starving' their children that I've read about seem to be people who have no idea of nutrition or who have very strange ideas of what a healthy diet is, unfortunately as the stories are presented in such a dramatic way it makes it harder for those of us who do understand what's healthy and make sure our kids have a varied diet.
