Last Week! Adi Braun

I'm so sad this class is coming to a close, I wish it could continue on for a whole semester. I feel like over the past month I have greatly matured just due to being more conscious about what I eat. It's been such a big learning curve in only a few short weeks. I really enjoyed our meals this week. Who would've known that I actually enjoyed a meal that was relatively similar to Thanksgiving dinner. My mom would be so proud! I loved the idea of just baking up some vegetables and serving them over grains, it's such simple preparation and still such a hearty meal. Talking about the ethics this weak really was getting people riled up. It's such an intense topic and so personal. I thought the video that we watched was very intense but also something good to see, sometimes the message doesn't really hit home until you see something like that. From what we've learned in this class I can easily say that I am going to be so much more conscious of what I eat. I don't know if I'll be able to jump into being vegan right away but every time I go to the grocery store I'm really going to think about the food I'm buying and where it's coming from. Even if it's a little more expensive that extra dollar is so worth it if it means I'm making a difference in our environment. Even though I'm just one person I think every little thing counts. Eventually more will follow and it will become a common thing for people to cut out animal products from their diets. I can't wait for this day to come, it will be so revolutionary. I've really enjoyed my experience in this class and want to say thanks for the amazing teachers and peers. It was so encouraging to be surrounded by a group full of people all wanting to make a difference.
