2 months ago, I tried going vegan. It was not a tough decision because I have been semi-vegetarian for the longest time. I have to be honest, although meat is not my favorite I sometimes would miss having them as part of my meal. I love burgers and steaks and although I may be able to survive without having them it would not hurt to occasionally devour them as well.
According to Wikipedia, veganism is the practice of abstaining from the use of animal products, particularly in diet, and an associated philosophy that rejects the commodity status of animals. However, to put it simply and base the term from the vegan society, veganism is a way of living which seeks to exclude, as far as is possible and practicable, all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose.
Basically, a vegan maintains a plant-based diet. Also, the lifestyle chooses not to support animal exploitation in any form and so avoid going to zoos or aquariums, or even taking part in dog or horse racing. For vegans, a great alternative is visiting and supporting animal sanctuaries that provide safe and loving homes for rescued animals.

Buddhist vegetarianism is the belief that following a vegetarian diet is implied in the Buddha's teaching. In Buddhism, however, the views on vegetarianism vary between different schools of thought. According to Theravada, the Buddha allowed his monks to eat pork, chicken and fish if the monk was aware that the animal was not killed on their behalf. The Mahayana schools generally recommend a vegetarian diet; according to some sutras the Buddha himself insisted that his followers should not eat the flesh of any sentient being.
My lunch and yes buffet style all for 30,000.00 Vietnamese Dong (approximately 66.84 Philippine Piso or 1.29 United States Dollar). The owners can speak great English too! And FYI, one should come early, this small restaurant gets crowded during lunchtime.
