Hello! Welcome to Veganteen.net. Thank you so much for visiting my site! I'm so excited to start publishing things here, but since I'm not a professional web site designer nor am I very good with computers, it's a slow process. Please be patient! Summer vacation means that I have enough free time that it should be up and running pretty smoothly by the end of this week (or, so I hope...). Please keep checking back here because there is more coming!
I guess I'll start by telling a little bit about why I made this site. I was born a vegetarian, and have been one up until recently. Last year, I started wondering about becoming a vegan. How hard would it be to become a vegan? What would I have to give up? What could I replace with a substitute (like soymilk instead of regular milk)? About a week ago, I decided to find out the answers to all of my questions.
"Mom, I want to go vegan."
My parents have been really supportive. My siblings have also considered going vegan with me, but they don't have a final answer yet. I've been using Silk brand soymilk a lot because it comes in great flavors like Very Vanilla and Chocolate. Most people don't like plain soy milk, myself included, and the flavors make it drinkable. Silk also makes coffee creamer, which is delicious. I have also purchased three cookbooks and am doing a lot of cooking. I will be posting recipes and tell which ones are successful, as well as reviewing products and giving tips, in the "Information" tab.
I decided to start this site because I think that teen vegans (like myself) need a place to talk about what they're eating and how they're managing.
Anyway, please keep checking back and be patient with my lack of computer skills! Thank you very much. :)
