Wish you were vegan.

Never met a vegan [insert food here] that I didn’t like.

No animals were harmed in the making of this meal.

If vegan food is “rabbit food,” well… hippity hop!

Animals are friends, not food.

My body is a garden, not a graveyard.

Be nice to animals — don’t eat them.

Visualize whirled peas.

My food is grown, not born.

Animals are not ours to eat.

A little veganism never hurt anybody.

Eating plant-based with my plant baes.

What’s more important… taste or life?

Can you really love animals and eat them too?

Would *you* like to be killed for someone’s meal?

If you wouldn't kill an animal chicken yourself, why pay for someone else to do it for you?
