I’m a bit jealous of the newest generation of vegetarians. I think it’s great and all to see more and more people adopting a plant-based lifestyle, but having given up meat myself around 1993, I see how easy the newly veganized have it, and there’s a touch of envy. Back when I went veg Whole Foods was nearly unheard of, I didn’t know of any vegetarian restaurants, and if I wanted some tofu or other exotic ingredient I’d have to get mom to take me on one heck of a road trip....
