As a Latina it’s been hard to reduce my animal consumption. I quit eating red meat nearly four years ago after getting my rescue dog and realizing I couldn’t stomach exploit mammals for meat anymore. My Latino family has been puzzled about my choices since then. Now I want to go vegan within the next year and I can see how hard that could be socially. Anyone have tips about dealing with families or cultures that don’t understand or approve of veganism? My family acts heartbroken when I won’t eat their carne asada and I’m like, I’d rather break your heart than an animals!
