Did you do it for health reasons, or something else?

I went to a pizza place for my birthday, and they used Follow Your Heart brand cheese... that slapped my mouth with flavor

Growing up I never met another Oliver. But my nephew has 3 in his class at school. I hear "Oh my 2-year-old niece/nephew/grandkid is also Oliver!"

Everything else I gave up super gradually, like over the course of years.

No animal products, so no

I didn’t know vegans don’t eat honey. But I guess it depends how much of a hardcore vegan you are

Wait I would've bet money on "John". Is that really not the most common name in the US?

Time to google...

Hardcore vegans don't eat sugar because it might contain bone char? But that's a bit too far for me. I had to draw the line somewhere

I know a handful of vegans and they've split on this! So you're exactly right

Huh. I didn’t know that was a thing. Avoiding sugar is probably a net positive though

Oh right, quarter-life crisis. I was having one. I even made a spotify playlist for it if anyone wants some song recs.

I went to a pizza place for Father's Day and went crazy. Got a pretty crazy specialty pizza called maxed out mac and cheese that had a pretty crazy toppings combination

It was alright.
