That's where this group can definitely help out. Health conscious people usually have many other common aspects besides what they eat (or don't eat) such as the basic one--many are actually …

I've heard a lot from people who wish is was "more vegan-friendly" as well as people from the other side of the fence who left because the group was too vegan-centric, and they weren't really interested. I briefly thought about shutting us down and creating a new group, but 117 members is nothing to laugh at. I've thought about it a lot, and I'm going to put together some events …
