day 12 Stef

Since the beginning of the challenge, I have been very much aware of all the animal products that we eat. They really are everywhere, and though I don't intend to take up veganism while I still live here, I'm thinking of reducing the amount of animal products not in recipes that I eat (example: eggs for breakfast, a glass of milk). this reminds me: I learned yesterday that many studies show that drinking milk is in no way necessary to humans, that calcium is easy to get from elsewhere and that it was only semi-rencently publicized and ranked essential because of pressures put by the industry. You don't need to drink milk to love life, it seems! I'm also doing many readings on the monstrous ecological damages caused by agriculture and cattle domestication. Every commercial I see on tv offers me something that is bad for the environment! hm. Miaou. I have few urges for meat, really, but I think I compensate by eating a lot of cheese and sugar. I'm very inspired by the path Mike has decided to walk upon. (can you say "upon" in this context?) Keep up the healthy lifestyle, folks.
