Being Vegan In A Non-Vegan Family (ft. Colleen Patrick-Goudreau)

[Bite Size Vegan]

Are you the only vegan (or non-vegan) in your family? Are you in a relationship with someone of differing dietary inclinations? How do you navigate this challenging and complex landscape? In this video, I sat down with author, speaker, and joyful vegan Colleen Patrick-Goudreau to get her input on this matter

It's awful. How do you deal with it emotionally? I can't. I just avoid them.
What me and my family see are two different things. They see a burger, I see a tortured cow. :/ And they don't care. Not at all. It's heart breaking. It's especially saddening to see kids being raised as omnis, never being taught that there's an alternative to eating animals and their byproducts. They could possibly learn as they get older, but even then they might be too addicted to quit.
