Vegan Eating Is Part of a Healthy, 'Cruelty-Free' Diet

Thank you for Marianne Harris' thoughtful and informative article about the joys of a vegan eating, Journal, May 30. Harris is right when she states "being vegan does not mean giving up or doing without." Indeed, as millions of Americans who choose meat-, egg-, and dairy-free fare can attest to, being vegan simply means choosing the cruelty-free versions of our favorite foods.

Spring is the perfect time to aim for a healthier and more humane diet — and finding delicious animal-friendly options in grocery stores and restaurants everywhere has never been easier.
