Is Your Partner A Meat Eater?
Just wondering how it works for you if your partner is not a vegan? If you haven't got a partner would you consider dating a meat eater or would it matter?
Understanding? Supportive?
Do you generally receive support from others when they discover you are vegan? Tell us some of your experiences when you initially tell someone that you don't eat any animal products.

Vegan Pancakes
These pancakes are delicious. They are based on a recipe from The Complete Scoffer by Ronny.
Ingredients
two thirds of a pint (350ml, 12 fl oz) of soya milk3 heaped tbsp white self-raising flour 1 tsp soya flour pinch of salt 1 tbsp sparkling mineral water (optional)
Notes
Delicious sprinkled with sugar and lemon, or served with slices of fruit and vegan ice-cream.
These also make a good savoury dish filled with a bolognaise-style filling and topped with a cheezy white sauce.
Use a mild tasting soya milk for best results (e.g. Sunrise organic unsweetened works well).
Method
Whizz all the ingredients except the water in a blender and check the consistency by dipping a spoon into the mixture. It should evenly coat the back of the spoon. If necessary, add more soya milk or more flour.
Gently stir in the sparkling mineral water.
Heat a heavy-bottomed or non-stick frying pan and pour in 1 teaspoon (no more) of vegetable oil. Ensure it evenly coats the pan.
Pour in ¼ of the mixture (this makes quite thick pancakes - use slightly less if you like them thinner). Tilt the pan quickly to ensure even coverage of the mixture. Cook on a medium heat until golden brown. Turn over and cook other side, then slide onto a plate and cook the next one.

What Is The Difference Between A Vegan & A Vegetarian?
Vegetarians, or lacto-ovo-vegetarians, do not eat any meat products, but they eat dairy products and eggs. Vegetarians need to know whether a product contains gelatine or other meat-based products. Vegans do not consume any animal products.
