What is it to you if individuals decide not not use animal products? I have vegan friends, and they do not comment on my occasional meat consumption. There is quite a difference between a plant and an animal. The argument should not be diverted, it should be addressed. Milk. Drink the poison, antibiotics and growth hormone every day if you wish, but people have a right to be informed before they put it in their bodies every day. I drink it too, about once a month, when soy milk won't work for certain recipes and such. But do allow people to be informed about the bad things in milk as well as the good. I am so glad my mom said it was good for me when I was a kid. That virtually guaranteed I would avoid it as an adult. I hate drinking milk from dirty cows standing in their own feces. Disgusting.
