hello everyone Michael Lanfield here.
Thank you for joining me when people
read my books especially the newest one
returned that a gentle Seaford a love
that lives in everyone I see some of
them yes after they read the book and
they still somewhat support the very
things that are killing ourselves and
killing the world and the animals
they're buying and they're purchasing
all kinds of products that contain
animal ingredients now there are some
people that do this just because there's
no other alternative and of course the
alternative is to not buy these things
to begin with so for example there are
some people that unfortunately don't
have the means to make ends meet and to
be able to afford wholesome nutritious
food and so they go to things like food
banks or as they call them soup kitchens
and what they do is unfortunately they
try to compromise and they try to get
the vegetarian meal instead of the vegan
meal and though of course they're not
eating meat the flesh of animals they're
still killing animals because of fagged
diet as we know dairy products and egg
products and honey products still and
slaves animals and eventually kills the
animals so they don't realize that and
when they go to these places and they
see bread and it doesn't have any any
ingredients on them because a lot of
times bread they don't label the
ingredients and then they they just
don't know where to turn and they take
that bread so the whole I
idea of trying to live a life that is
really causing the least harm possible
to all life forms including environment
is really to first of all try to
understand these ideas really deeply
understand that anytime we take
something even if it's from the food
bank or soup kitchen or anywhere that
includes any animal ingredients any
animal products maybe the flesh of
animals or secretions of animals what
we're doing is we're doing a disservice
to not only the animals because we are
telling the food bank yes it's okay for
you to supply me with these animal foods
or these products that include animal
ingredients that have animal units in
them but also I put these products which
usually contain a lot of you know a lot
of chemicals a lot of you know pilot
processed chemically Laden and packaged
and a lot of times they're not vegan and
a lot of times you don't even know if
they're vegan because a lot of times
there are ingredients that you just
don't know what they are and they're
conspicuous like natural ingredients or
natural flavors we don't really know
what that is unless they specify it
exactly what your natural ingredient is
so these people are torn from trying to
do the best that they can but they're
not doing the best because they don't
understand that level of deep veganism
so this is what I do when I am in a
situation where I or when people are in
situations where we don't have enough
enough money to buy the things that we
really want to buy like fruits and
veggies because fruits and veggies we
know it's just for some registers
there's no ingredients in them now there
may be of course sprayed or it may be
genetically modified or whatever but
that is about your unavoidable unless we
get organic or we grow our own organic
Lee with no absolutely no chemicals and
no animal inputs so what I do and what
other people do is they stick to really
simple foods whatever they can get so
for example if we are only able to get
food from the food bank and we will
strictly specify to the food bank that
we are vegan we don't need anything that
needs animal ingredients and whatever
contains animal ingredients you give it
back to them and you don't look this is
not vegan as it contains animal
ingredients you really be adamant about
it don't be scared or shy or anything be
adamant about it because every little
ingredient is coming from an animal that
has been abused used seen as property we
don't want anything to do with animal
agriculture we want nothing to do with
animal non-human animal property status
and as food what else so really like if
we see bread that doesn't have any
animal like any ingredients in them
don't buy them because we don't know
what's actually in the bread now we may
think that bread is just water yeast
flour that sort of thing but today it's
like dozens of ingredients and a lot of
times animal ingredients so there are
many animal ingredients and these in
these foods we've got to be adamant
about that so basically what I do is I
do not take or tell them specifically
that absolutely no animal ingredients
now may not be a healthiest foods
because you might have
look like a lot of canned foods that
have salt maybe sugar in them and we
need to understand that it's not healthy
but it's vegan and we got to do what we
can to make ends meet so try to lower
our expenses and try to make a little
bit more money okay but when we lower
our expenses that means that we become
minimalist so we don't buy as much we
don't spend as much and we just try to
be minimal like just not supporting the
system as much as we possibly can so
we're going to have food banks we're
going to this soup kitchen let me
specifically ask them what are the what
are the like for example pastas always
almost always vegan unless it's egg
pasta I mean no it's a pasta because
it's usually yellow okay little bit
yellow what else so just just understand
that like for example if in the soup
kitchen you have mashed potatoes may not
be it may not be because it may have
butter or milk or something in it the
lasagna the cakes have eggs in it or
cheese it's not kind of milk product so
that's not vegan so you got to
understand that now first for desperate
and we really they're there a lot of
vegan options so let's be adamant and
really be strict about what we get from
these places we need to understand all
the ingredients in these foods and we
need to read up on a list of animal
ingredients so we know what to avoid
when purchasing links for example bread
or other other products just being for
the out of it of course there are times
when you will be eating things that have
some animal ingredients in and we won't
realize it or may not know so just try
to be as vegan as you possibly can that
doesn't mean we're we're extreme it
means we're trying to be as
compassionate as we possibly can we talk
loving as we possibly can but there I
don't know his vegan or not doesn't
doesn't feel like it's fur or anything
I think it's fake fur but anyways oh
that is what we must do also buying
clothing we buy use calling another shop
that's much better
this definitely is not a vegan artwork
as you see but anyways that's that we
gotta be really adamant and really
strict about what we buy what we put
into our bodies when we put it into onto
our skin the only thing that should go
on to our skin if anything is coconut
oil that's it if that and that's about
it everyone so thanks for watching I'll
