Essays and Dialogues

Purpose of this book is to set forth in a clear and rational manner the logic of vegetarianism.

1. Start your transition by dropping junk foods, white sugar, and all meats, including fish and poultry.

2. Find others who are already vegetarian who can guide and support you during your shift e.g. veg forums, meet-ups and societies in your area.

3. Read books on vegetarianism and veganism. Or contact your state's Vegan and Vegetarian Society who would be happy to send you a Veg Starter pack.

4. Try out recipes that substitute plant-based alternatives into your old favorite dishes. (e.g. veggie burgers, veggie sausages, veggie fish cakes, tofu or veggie pies and soy products). Hint: Convenience foods cut out cooking time. Natural food stores stock many such things for you to choose from. If your feeling like something spicy grab your favorite Chinese vegetarian recipes or a simple vegetarian crock pot recipes.

population of Great Britain).
