I’m always surprised how misunderstood the word vegan is. I always get the same questions... so you eat fish then? Eggs are ok then, just not dairy? Even when i told my mother for the first time I was going vegan she asked me if turkey was ok then.... great post by the way, I really enjoyed reading it, you made some great points!

This actually reminds me of a funny story, My uncle, many years ago stated going out with a girl, she was vegetarian, now this was Ireland in the 70's where even the roads where meat. He brought his new girlfriend home for a Sunday lunch, a Sunday lunch at the time would have consisted of 2 slices of bacon, sausage, eggs, blood sausage (black pudding ) and white pudding (another mashup of horrible shit). So my grand mother placed a large portion of the above in-front of her, needless to say the girlfriend was not impresses. To which my grand mother replied "what, there's no meat on that plate" To her meat was a roast or similar, no concept of vegetarianism or anything like it.
