68. Eat vegan for a week
Done - as in a committed attempt was made (though it fell short by 3 hours as it was raining and lunchtime my back hurt and we'd sat down in a Chinese restaurant and I just had stuff from the buffet). I learnt more about how difficult it can be to identify vegan packet food without some sort of special decoder for the ingredients list, and that some vegans avoid sugar which has been refined using bone (this distinction tends not to be made on packets, which simply list "sugar"). I suspect I ate some animal-processed sugar during this week.
It was easy enough to cook for myself, but harder to eat out, and I could have tried more of a challenge.
So, what have I found out about my staple foods?( Read more... )
56. Drink more tea (currently one cup/week despite the array of interesting coloured packets in the cupboard). DONE.
I've had a cup most days, it's quite pleasant but I'm not developing a habit, and might switch now to "Boil fewer kettles" :-)
