I could never be a 100% vegetarian because it’s impossible for me to stop eating charcuterie (prepared meat products like ham, bacon, dried sausage etc), especially in France. But veggies are an adventure worthy to be followed! Because veggies are tasteful and light! They are healthy and good! I admire people that manage to follow up their adventure 100%!
