Wow! Great, and detailed article. Thank you.

I've recently committed (in my mind, at least) to become vegan, but haven't actually made the leap yet.

I decided to research and prepare myself first, not so much for reasons to become vegan (already decided), but how best to go about it. I'm in my 40's (lifetime of meat eating habits to overcome) and have a wife, who'll never become vegan, and a five-year-old daughter, who I don't want to force anything on.

So, I'm finding best practices which will work for me, in my living environment - because I'm assuming this will be a hard switch to make when my family are continuing to eat meat.

Anyway - great information, all supporting my decision to become vegan (not plant-based)!!
