Vegans — 8 million (of the above group), 2.5 percent of the population
The vegan population in the U.S. has doubled since 2009.
The This means that 7.5 million people in the U.S. now eat diets that do not include any animal products. The study also revealed that 33% of Americans are eating vegan/vegetarian meals more often, though they are not vegan or vegetarian. That is over 100 million people, or one third of the country consciously choosing more plant-based foods!

too much of the same song kinda makes me remember why I didn't want to join the church that said only their bunch would get in the pearly gates on judgement day.
Be a good example is the best policy. You can catch more flies with...
if you wanna catch flies.
Plus the article quoted above. No one has ever asked me what I ate...so they missed me for sure in those statistics. Helene and Sweetie didn't get asked either...I will check with the grandkids.
