What motivated you to go veg?
Getting a dog. Seeing the personalities animals have made it difficult to want to eat them.
What’s your favorite veg-friendly restaurant, and what do you order there?
Casablanca in Milwaukee has an amazing vegetarian lunch buffet. Their falafel is to die for.

What’s your best advice for new vegetarians/vegans?
Bring your own dish to family functions. Then you’ll absolutely have something to eat!
