Thank you for sharing that! It's always interesting to hear other's perspective on it. As I have also been eating an omnivore diet before going to plant-based food, I have compassionate for those who still haven't opened themselves up for the truths behind animal agriculture, since this was me at some point.
But I am grateful that I live in a fully vegan household and most of my friends enjoy the plant-based lifestyle so that my contact with such situations has become less and less over the years ;)
RE: "I can't eat that." - Do you choose restriction or abundance?
