It was just another motivation and reason for me to live the lifestyle that felt true to my soul and my spirit. ... You don't realize what food tastes like until you stop eating meat. It's like something happens to your palate, it just gets cleansed and the simplest thing-a tomato-tastes like the most vibrant, amazing thing on the planet. My energy is fantastic.
