I don't think I would make it as a vegan eating only a few foods. Your diet seemed really limited in college. Thank goodness many more people are vegans now, because there is a lot more choice. Being happy is indeed very important. Personally, I can no longer be happy and also eat animals. However, it is definitely better to eat a happy animal who has had a good life than one who has been utterly miserable and died terrified. I think a lot of people who are sort of on a journey towards a more vegetarian diet do consider factors like this. At our neighborhood market each of the dead animals was fed a vegetarian diet and comes from a particular ranch and is labeled with that information. By the time I wanted to know all those details about my dinner I had decided I would rather eat something else, but everyone is different. You have to eat something! Celery has no blood or guts, no nasty bits. That appeals to me quite a lot. Just don't take my chocolate away! Were you referring to the controversy over whether soy is safe? Here are a couple of little blurbs dealing with that. vegsource.com foodrevolution.org
