How can people be completely against eating animals, say they're vegetarian, but still eat fish and gelatin?/a>
Honestly, I don't know how the whole world isn't vegan. I can't make any sense of it to save my life. I know people like the way these products taste, but is that really enough to condemn another animal to slavery, rape and death? I don't get it.


My mom never has good food in the fridge? Most mothers don't object to their children trying to eat healthy, why not go grocery shopping with her that way you can become aware of all the healthy food there is out there.

Tea and coffee bad after a meal?
Romulus, it isn't that coffee is bad for you, it's just that she's your mother, and you are better off doing what she says. She got stretch marks for you, do you think she liked that? Do you think she would have traded life-long scars in for a cup of the devil drink? Of course she would have. So be nice to her, help her with the groceries, hold the door and let her walk in first, change her oil in her car, and when you move into your own flat, you can drink all the coffee you want.
