From Boxed to Unboxed: Mic's Journey
Believe it or not, I knew nothing about being vegan. I bought into the same stereotypes as everyone else (i.e., vegans do not get protein, you need meat to survive, etc.). I am excited to share my journey with you!
Vegan Since 2018
Favorite brand: Violife
Guilty pleasure: Cinnamon Rolls!
I grew up eating canned food, McDonalds, and Hamburger Helper. Though I learned to cook at a young age, I knew nothing about nutrition or vegetables. My vegan journey started with being lactose intolerant! After countless months of battling with dairy, I decided to try being vegan. I will admit, I held onto meat for months because I could not let go of pepperonis. Now, I can proudly say I enjoy plant-based pepperonis. I love being vegan because I feel like I'm always learning something new about nutrition, or a new way to cook and bake. I'm excited to share my experiences here with Unboxed Vegan. - Mic
