This question is relevant to me as I just turned myself to be a vegan when January started. Though I am not a hundred percent vegan, I am really trying not to eat those meat. My only reason is just I realized how brutal it is to kill animals in order for me to eat their meat. I feel pity for those slaughtered animals. For some people, it would be just nothing but for me, their lives matter.

 Okay.  You can't be anything other than 100% and call yourself vegan.  Strictly speaking, eggs, milk and honey are out.  What are you eating that disquLifies you?

There are these two instances (first in January and the second just this February) that I have to eat from a fastfood since that was already late at night and I didn't have my dinner yet. Too bad, there were no available veggies in that fastfood.

 Yeah, it can be difficult to find vegan food when you're on-the-road.  I know.  I'm not vegan but a special someone near and dear to me is and sometimes finding food is tricky.  McDonalds french fries are not vegan which actually shocked me.  If you're going to be serious about it, you have to do some research.  I found a web site that helps when we're travelling.
 Sometimes it's not possible to find a restaurant - even fast food - and then you have to get creative and make sure to read the labels.  Many flat breads are vegan (stay away from naan bread) and you can find hummus or peanut butter almost anywhere (or nuts in general for that matter).   We stopped at a little gas station/variety store while on a road trip last summer and ended up eating watermelon (I always carry a knife), apples with peanut butter and potato chips. 
 If you have access to a microwave, there are vegan options in the frozen food section - Amy's is our go-to entrée while on-the-road but be careful, some of their entrees are vegetarian.  Microwave-in-bag veggies are awesome too.
 Keep in mind that veganism is not just about food.  Good luck.



Apples with peanut butter?  For reals?  I gotta try this.  Sounds like a budget version of a sweet apple pie. Cheesy just missing a dash of cinnamon and some crunch factor.   My gf has recently gone vegan. (not because of the hate for animal killing or anything but because she is trying a diet that will increase her energy levels and stabilize her moods. )

People who become vegan mostly are into animal rights of some sort, they despise animal cruelty and so to support the practice of slaughtering animals they will choose this lifestyle of not eating anything that came from animals or are animals and so the only option would be eating veggies or anything that grows naturally on trees or of soil thus resulting to be called as "vegan".

I think that people become vegan because they don't eat meat from animals ,and when they eat meat they feel disgust and want throwup, this is just like person who likes to eat pork and meat but they don't eat vegetables and plants because they feel the same way as vegan.

People become vegan because they want to eat healthy foods and they also want to protect the animals because they believe that animals are not to be slaughter. They have their own reasons and vision in life and I respect their decision..

I respect the vegans and there discipline on doing this for the love of living animals butchered just to be satieted afterwards. Well at some point, the ecosystem works that way for a very long time. The predators eat the preys. Would it not be disturbed if everyone goes vegan? Just my wild thinking. Though I love the idea of thinking and caring for the innocent creatures.

Just wondering, why do people become vegan. Is this because of health, ethics or something else?
So many different reasons:

Some people don't like the idea of killing animals for meat.
Some people don't like eating meat because they don't want to be fat.
Others for religions beliefs too Grin

Simply eating meat doesn't make one fat.

I think it's mostly because of guilt with most vegetarians and vegans. I am an omnivore and its because i have no guilt about it.

Multiple different reasons.  The main one is what people believe in, most don't like animals being hurt.

Much healthier food. Can cleanse you but most have allergens. I believe plants are sentient in some form.

 If plants are sentient, how does one kill them humanely before consuming?

People choose to be vegetarian I think it is for health, or maybe because the person has a disease that should not eat meat. But for now there are many people who become vegetarian because of the lifestyle and the environment around it.

Because animals have to suffer a lot during meat production and dairy production too. And it makes sense too but i really like meat too much to be a full time vegan
Some people also think that it's healthier to live a vegan life but it has a lot of disadvantages too, so i'm not really sure if it's worth it in this regard.

Some people are vegetarians because they simply can't afford meat.
