What’s a Vegan?

From Vegan City

a Vegan is not a freak (although some are behaving like freaks), a vegan is someone that lives by a vegan diet and lifestyle. The diet: no dairy, no meat. The lifestyle: More broadly nothing that comes from the animal kingdom is to be used in any way as a general principle. "Veganism" or being a vegan, on a vegan diet, having a vegan lifestyle; has absolutely nothing to do with religion, eating disorders, any new spiritual teaching or punk rock. There are people from all walks of life and with all personalities that have adopted this lifestyle for health reasons, environmental reasons, and even some not afraid to state that it's because they feel empathy towards other sentient. Love of non human animals.
