		<description><![CDATA[I recently discovered vegansoapbox.com, a relatively new website that posts news/articles related to veganism.  I think it&#8217;s a fantastic website because it covers a variety of very intellectual topics.  As much as I love drooling over food pics that adorn so many vegan blogs, I really appreciate the more thoughtful, argumentative essays that Vegan Soapbox posts.

		<description><![CDATA[If you are like me, you are sick of the honey question: No, honey isn&#8217;t vegan (bees are animals&#8230;duh).  Yes, some people who consider themselves vegan eat honey.  No, they are not undermining the vegan revolution.  
Someone at work sent me this article today (I am officially &#8220;the vegan&#8221; at work).  A decent article, but, seriously, [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=veganmusings.wordpress.com&blog=3064832&post=91&subd=veganmusings&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

Even though I do consider myself vegan, I often feel that I&#8217;m not as perfect a vegan (or person) as I could and should be.  Especially for perfectionists, it&#8217;s easy to get distracted by what you aren&#8217;t, and [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=veganmusings.wordpress.com&blog=3064832&post=83&subd=veganmusings&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
