    I can also add, as a vegetarian myself, a vegan diet is nowhere near as cheap.

    Unless you have the ability to grow all your own produce and protein, vegans are spending just as much if not more for those calories/proteins.

      Well, you can live on rice and beans pretty well, and simple salad is cheap. But yes, I agree. Vegans pay more than vegetarians, because milk and eggs are cheap.

      You’ll save on medical bills in the long run. Meat eaters get far more chronic diseases
