Dear Vegan-To-Be:
Don't care about other animals? Don't understand all the fuss vegans make when there's enough human suffering already? Annoyed that we spend time and money helping critters when you feel people should come first? Wish bleeding-heart vegans would just STFU?
Then go vegan because you love people more.
Go vegan because you want to help end world hunger and feed children instead of cattle. Why should all that grain go to feed animals when it can be used for human consumption? Think of the number of people that could be fed (about 800 million!) if all the crops grown to feed livestock were diverted to them instead. Why should beasts be fed first when people are starving? Kinda crazy if you think about it, no?
Sincerely,
Vegan who gives a hoot.

Dear Vegan-Already-Reader:
Why did I write the above? Am I not vegan because of ethics? Of course I am, and so are you, but you're not the person who needs to stop eating meat. And while I would prefer that everyone become vegan for what I feel are the right reasons, I think there's a case to be made for having as many compelling reasons as possible for people to go vegan period. Let there be a smorgasbord of reasons so that no one can have an excuse not to! Besides, I'm sure it doesn't matter to the other animals why any of us are vegan, just that we are.
Sincerely,
Vegan who gives more than a hoot.
