Originally posted by ZoeB Vegans are kinda like mormons, I find. As long as they aren't trying to convert you, they're a pretty nice bunch. And they seem quite sane compared to their über-crazy cousins, the raw folk...
I was tempted to copy and share this to my facebook stream, but I do have many vegan and a few Mormon friends and they are usually very sweet. I have learned that "tastes almost like" or "tastes better than" really means that it will probably not make you gag and may even be pleasant in the mouth, but that any resemblance is usually in appearance alone and even then you may have to squint a little.
