I'm a single Aussie Vegan Girl. I'm 25 and became vegan for my animal friends (I didn't want them to smell leather or meat or any other animal remains on me, what would they think of me afterall if they could smell their friends on me? so I just decided to become vegan.. oh and I felt a little like a FAKE being a vegetarian whom still had leather shoes!). Been vego for about 90% of my life, I didn't really aquire the taste of red-meat, but I was a big chicken & fish fan, chocolate was the hardest thing for me to give up.<br><br><br><br>
I'm not into AR so much (I'd prefer to leave this up to the professionals) but I offer support within financial ways when I can.<br><br><br><br>
I live with 2 dogs and 2 horses on my own little piece of paradise in New South Wales.<br><br><br><br>
I don't really know many vego's personally, (I don't have much of a life beyond my work and property) so I seem to have more carnivore friends than vego, but at least they respect my lifestyle choice and don't bag me out about it.

That's an awesome reason to be vegan! That's the first time I've heard that specific reason. Sure, I couldn't eat animals after all the canine best friends and feline arch-nemeses I've had ovber the years, but that's unique, Rebs. Welcome!

Have you tried Sweet Williams vegan Soy chocolate (Plain, Rice Crispie, and Almond)? They are SOOOOO good.

Thanks for the great welcome, Everyone here on this board is so friendly and fun, I look forward to making friends here.<br><br><br><br>
Yeah I agree Kurmudgeon, Sweet william chocolates are great, my fave one is the rice crisp, and I use to really like the white soy choc-coated rice crispbread ones but they don't seem to have these ones anymore - or I haven't seen them around for over 12 months anyway.<br><br><br><br>
Have you tried Alpha or Constant Craving Choc's?? (Exquisite!!!)

I'm not sure where they are available. I recall trying some chocolates with fillings (strawberry, peppermint, orange) from the Animal Lib shop in Sydney.... they were very nice.
