    I’m going vegan for 40 days. meat isn’t a big deal, but giving up fish and dairy will be really really hard. so far it’s been 5 days and i don’t feel depreved at all. make sure to eat lots of veggies!! and grains for energy!!

    As an ethical vegan, this is extremely easy for me. No meat, no dairy=no unecessary pain caused to another living being.

    I do vegan days a lot – sometimes vegan weeks go by now! :-D

    I noticed a big difference, especially after cutting out milk, and then when I cut out all dairy I noticed a big change in the way I felt inside (apparently dairy makes my guts feel heavier?! who knew?). I have also moved to unsweetened soymilk and I even make my own soy yogurt sometimes!

    have been vegan for about a month now and all i receive is comments of how good my skin looks and how much weight ive lost plus i dont have any more digestive problems(the dairy was my problem). I love Mediterranean food and have found it easy to find vegan Mediterranean foods. Im so happy i switched over not only im i helping the environment but im helping myself. Do you know that the number one contributor to water shortages is?Livestock production…go to veganoutreach.com to learn more….

    Ok guys I live in the deep south if I can do it anyone can!!! Around here everyone survives on BBQ and Fried Chicken!!! I catch so much grief over it but if you know in your heart that you should do this, then you should. Kashi accually makes 3 vegan frozen meals(that I know of) and they are great!

    I must look for the Rancerhero product by kashi..Thanks!! People have been scaring me by constantly saying how are you getting enough protein? I am working on it but don’t know enough about protein content in fruits and veggies..beans and soy and tofu i get it..but what else? I just began working out at a gym so alos want to find things lower in fat and calories..

    Hi all i am a voice of encouragement. I have been veggie for two years and Vegan for going on two months. I feel great physically and mentally and with products like The New Ranchero Beans frozen Kashi meal it is so much easier. I am a fan of the Black Bean and Mango and now Kashi added the Ranchero Beans. They are both great. Wow this sounds like a commercial but I am totally serious and excited that this company is giving more vegan options.

    i did pretty well yesterday. had a sml amount of cheese on the salad I ordered in a restaurant but at home was good until I ate my fav. a kashi bar that had honey..so not vegan totally. I just finished a book called Skinny B—ch (bestseller) It is all about becoming Vegan so that is what my goal is. Have been cow/pig and lamb free for 14 yrs but oh do I crave Turkey and cheese. This will help. Kashi please make more vegsn products especailly on the go stick in your purse kinds..Love the pumpkin seed flax bars but now can’t have on vegan plan Help!!

    It would be a lot easier if KASHI OFFERED VEGAN/VEGETARIAN MEALS!!!! hahaa … i am vegetarian and i was trying to search for tv dinners that were obviously organic and vegetarian.. but also used whole grains… most of the organic tv dinners STILL use white rice!! Kashi is the only one who uses whole grain brown rice! ridiculous! i wish Kashi had more options for us vegans/ vegetarians!

    I went vegan in January 2008 and lasted 3 1/2 months. It was incredibly hard as animal products are in almost everything you eat. Vegan means no meat, no fish, no dairy, no eggs, no butter. It it is made from an animal you can’t have it. And forget about eating out! I found this to hard to continue and reverted back to vegetarian.
