You're absolutely right, but in the end, humans are very adaptive so if you really want to do something (within reason) you can. It is way easier to just make excuses as to why you can't versus just trying something new out. It isn't like you can't go back to the old way if it isn't working out for you, you know? I am not a vegan, but I'm in the culinary arts and if there is one thing I've learned it is that when it comes to food, you can just about make anything likeable to anybody. It is about presentation and the amount you effort. Granted, there are some exceptions like Cilantro tasting like soap for some, but for real. Effort and time is the big factor. Gotta experiment because it is an art.

Definitely! I don't really miss meat when it isn't in my food, but I do miss the protein and vitamins. I'm also diabetic, so unfortunately, I can't eat rice and beans all day, or I absolutely would.
