Andy going vegan for good?
My brother announced during dinner that he is going Vegan starting 14November 2008 ; which marks his 26th birthday. He has been on a Vegetarian diet for the past three years..so what more? Vegetarians and Vegans is the same, correct? My exact response to his decision was: “Sama saja bah..tidak makan daging bah”. Owh I was wrong, then I got this 2 minutes lecture from my brother – By definition; he is now a vegetarian – not eating any meat products but still consume dairy products like eggs and milk. Vegans on the other hand do not eat any animal products at all! Egg comes from a chicken, so they are off the list. Milk are from cows so strike them off his food list too. Krazi I tell him.. Ok not that krazi. He tried convincing me to be a Vegetarian once he entered his second year of complete meat-abstinence. So I was a bit influenced.
I got my Peta Veg Starter Kit last year and enjoyed reading the colorful brochures the PETA people send from US. I was actually interested to get the Starter Kit as I wanted the stickers (yeah. I’m pathetic)..but too bad, they’re not included in my starter kit. I once got all these cute stickers when andy was invited to go to KL for a xstraightedgex gig – Way back in 2006. Then I stop eating meat for like two days but sorry peeps, I couldnt resist the lamb/chicken chops. I happen to enjoy a big portion of meat every now and then, and cheese,milk are my favourites. I am happy to have a full stomach, but perhaps not healthy. But everytime I go to these links where they show cruelty towards animals, my heart sunk in despair. Ok then, I’ll try to go vegetarian but maybe not Vegan.
So basically this was the conversation we had:
Andy: Nanti by 14th , saya mau become Vegan sudah ni.
Mua: Hah? Sama jah bah.. tidak makan daging bah kan. ko kan skarang bukan makan daging pun?
Andy: (Giving that explanation on Vegetarians & Vegans).
Dad: Jadi apa lah ko makan?? (A bit shocked..)
Andy: Makan sayur lahh…
Dad: Aish.. lain juga tu.. (Dad talking while enjoying his chicken wings and chicken soup)
Andy: Daddy tu bah patut jadi vegetarian..Healthy eating! Ini makan daging jahh!
Mua & Mom: (Laughing)
Mua: Ish saya mcm tidak boleh oh tidak makan meat!
Andy: Buduh ko ni. Boleh bah tu!
Mom: Bah ko jgn langsung tidak makan, nanti tinggal tulang sy tidak tanggung oh.
Dad: Tolong pegi tambah nasi dady (giving his plate to my brother)
Andy: Apa ni…
…hehehehe…
