The St. Petersburg Times had a Vegetarian Issue in their "Taste" section a few weeks ago. It included this clear skinned glowing with health vegan guy and credited VegWeb in the article.

Nice article. I like how it showed that vegans and omnis can live peaceably. (Plus, the vw plug is cool, too.)

i agree with hh and i'm stoked that his family was cool enough to try it! that speaks volumes! i hate when people won't even try something just because it's vegan and no other reason... i will try ANYTHING as long as it doesn't go against my veganism... not trying something just cause it's different than what you're used to is pretty lame

The parentheses in the article cracked me up. Everyone knows that sometimes in newspaper writing you have to reword a sentence to quote it. But "You get so attached to (the pigs)"..."They had to give up their (lives)..." Putting it in parentheses like that just makes it look dumb. Like what did he REALLY say? or something. I don't know, it just made me think of MadLibs. :D

first one - "them" ?
second one - ?? I have no idea.

Using a lot of those things in quotes kinda bugs me, though I know it's .
