Oysters Are A Vegan Friendly Food
The vegan lifestyle, and it very much is a lifestyle, is something I only have a cursory knowledge of. Oysters, on the other hand, are a gourmand’s delight of the highest order. I’m not only very fond of these little critters of the sea, but I’m knee deep in educating myself as to their nuances …

Overall:[rating:1] Veggieland is a solid choice for any vegetarians or for any carnivores looking for a healthy alternative.
