    After quite a few years as a vegan, I have cracked under the strict limits.

    I now eat fish and seafood but still haven't eaten chicken, pork, beef, venison or any meat or things that contain meat.

    On an ethical viewpoint, I wish I could have stayed vegan forever but working and being vegan was a toil for me and, more importantly, for my lovely wife. She is happy that we can eat fish together and she can now make tuna fish sandwiches for my meal at work.

    If I had a job that was for 8 hrs only it would have been easier but sometimes I do 15 hrs and then drive home.

    Oh well, that's the way it goes (first your money and then your clothes :lol:) and I will still look out for non-meat delicacies.....

    Enjoy. :like:

    It should make things a bit easier for you, and if your wife is happy with the change that is a good thing.

    We have just spent a week and a half in Phuket, it was grilled fish and prawns most evenings. :D

    Hey, good news @aposhark

    I guess that you will now be able to drink Handpumped real ale without feeling any guilt.

    Most beers use isinglass finings, derived from fish, which is the reason it is unsuitable for strict vegans.

    Cheers, Beers. :like:
