Vegetarian diet concept ♥ Love what you choose, choose what you love
In recent years, I have seen hundreds of ways to eat vegetarian food on the Internet, and even lively discussions or quarrels about what to eat and what not to eat. Sometimes it seems like a fashion trend. With such a positive sense of topic, regardless of whether the quarrel is discussed head-on or back, it is a pleasure to watch on the sidelines!
my family story
My mother used to come from a farming family and asked her if she had never drank cow’s milk or goat’s milk since she was a child. The workload of the farming family is really amazing, so she rushed out to work at a young age and didn’t want to be a farmer. It is said that my parents started to be vegetarians before dating. After getting married, because I didn’t have much money, my grandmother cooked all by herself. I chose cheap oil, vegetables, and occasionally vegetarian ingredients, and very occasionally only eggs. I asked about the most common side dishes. It's marinated soybeans + vegetables, bring your own bento.
I ate it like this until I was pregnant and gave birth to a child. When I asked my mother if she had eaten eggs, she intuitively said that she didn't, because she almost didn't buy it because she had no money. Dad said that she probably ate it very little! So in fact, we are also the popular "vegetarian baby" now! Or "zero-waste babies" who wash cloth diapers by hand! I think my parents are on the cutting edge of the trend of the times, haha!
It is said that my brother does not drink breast milk, so he grew up drinking milk powder. I am the representative of drinking breast milk, but my mother said that when I was pregnant with me, I happened to pass through summer, and it was too hot, so I ate a lot of cold products. Everyone speculates that it may be the earliest source of my cold bottom (but it is mainly caused by my love of eating ice and eating N years of self-inflicted sins during the growth process!).
When I was young, my grandmother cooked most of the food by myself, and I bought breakfast occasionally. My parents would cook breakfast and bring bentos. My brother and I had school lunches or bought bentos for lunch. This is not vegetarian! My mother said that apart from the Chinese New Year, there are usually no snacks at home, but the fruits are prepared and eggs are bought for the little devils to eat. I remember that in the past when I was a child, I scrambled eggs and fried rice when I came home when I was hungry. I remembered it was delicious and delicious~
To say that the taste is so subtle and impressive, it should be Jianan goat milk! The skill of learning to drink the whole bottle of goat milk without breathing in one breath is thanks to it, the taste feels good, and the smell is amazing... Who the hell thought of this kind of whole child thing!
University accommodation, start eating three meals out unhealthy diet. It's also a period of great physical and mental stress, and you get acne and rotten face. After graduation, I went home for my first work lunch. In the evening, except for dinner with friends, I ate the delicious love of my grandmother at home. Later, I went to Japan for a working holiday for a year. I basically went out to play or slack off, and I cooked my own dinner. I could eat breakfast casually. The working relationship for lunch was usually solved by chocolate candy cookies. When I came back to my second job, I started to eat three meals at home and bring a bento for lunch. From this period, except for dinner with friends, I was a vegetarian.
picky eater
After I went to school to eat a nutritious lunch, I discovered that apart from the cows that my parents didn't eat, there were other ingredients that I couldn't accept! The green peppers, carrots, eggplants, bitter gourd, and coriander that other children may not like to eat are all fine, but what makes me feel broken is the five spices: garlic, green onions, onions, leeks, shallots and other foods, why are there all kinds of fried vegetables outside? It's a strange taste, because people like to put garlic, my dear! In the end, the way to reluctantly accept is to pick out the garlic, reluctantly eat garlic-flavored dishes, and the soup will never scoop the onions floating on the top, share the onions with friends first, and skip the dried meat with shallots, which is very impressive. The classmate also said Picking garlic felt like a stunt. I didn't see any special picking. After eating, there was a small pile of minced garlic left.
Japan is also a country that loves to use quintessence. Several times I slack off eating out and cooking packages can only hypnotize myself to eat up those flavors that don’t exist, so most of them are safest to cook by themselves. Thanks to my mother’s example, I can cook at least vegetarian dishes ( Because it is almost every day, I can generally remember it when I look at it. Sometimes I can’t tell my mother, so it’s easy to get out of the way. The seasonings are probably a little random, maybe the special chefs are like this. Personality!), I would like to thank my friends who ate with me for accommodating my mines. Except for mines, my taste is really random... right~ (Wu Xin has already abolished most of the meat and a small part of vegetable dishes, just follow the fate!)
Therefore, the impression of seafood and various meats in the past is that it is OK to add ginger, pepper, spicy and peppercorns, but not to add fenugreek.
I have also experienced the era when I always thought that the fried burgers outside were delicious. After all, the ancient classic scumbag famous saying: "A wife is not as good as a concubine, a concubine is not as good as stealing, stealing is better than not stealing. (Dinner is not as good as snacks, snacks are not as good as stealing in the middle of the night. , it’s better not to eat it in the middle of the night.)” Those are the flavors that you can’t eat at home. After removing the blacklist with Wuxin, the rest feels even more seductive! Not to mention the snacks that I had basically never eaten when I was growing up, those artificial flavoring additives are all novel flavors to me!
change
Although my faith told me: "Don't hurt sentient beings" , but I really didn't have much real feelings and didn't take it too seriously back then, and I also felt that I would only eat it at occasional gatherings of friends. It's just that when it's hard to pick out five flavors, I simply order vegetarian meals, but the vegetarian meals from a few years ago can only be said that there are really not many delicious meals.
Occasionally, you have to decide whether to choose to spend money and suffer, or choose to spend money that is unpalatable. I feel more and more that it is better to go home and eat the craftsmanship of my grandmother's super chef!
Begin to learn all kinds of information about eating habits and living habits to adjust physical fitness, most of which are most convenient to cook at home. After reading the information, I seriously began to repair my heart. After I adjusted my physique, I gradually lost interest in unhealthy tastes . Reflecting on my previous desire to eat, I feel that it is not a desire for taste, but a certain inner hole. But this is like a symptom of some kind of addiction. The more you eat, the more it drags down your health. Not to mention, the hole in your heart is not satisfied because of this, it is just a vicious circle.
Sometimes empathy for a moment is a lifetime.
Understand the suffering of all living beings, understand the benefits of whole plant and vegetable diet, and become healthier and more comfortable after the experiment. No need for a special declaration, no need for a special determination, just know that this is what will happen next:
- Do not actively choose, buy, or eat.
- If you accept passively, it depends on the relationship and the situation to see if you need to take the initiative to explain. Or eat it as if you didn't notice it. Or give it to neighbors and friends. (Because I have really encountered an embarrassing situation on the spot, and it is very difficult to communicate with people, most of them can speak directly.)
- I won't take the initiative to brainwash, and I said that I suggest: reading a book and saying that XXOO cuisine is very suitable for the current situation (the ingredients are vegetable food), and it can make you healthier!
- The choice of ingredients and raw materials is very important, and the wrong choice is even worse for your physique. It is best to use whole plant and vegetable food as the main food. Artificial additives of processed products and vegetarian materials are absolutely prohibited. Avoid unsafe sources. Choose appropriate and good oil. Try to make homemade products (such as pickles, fermented products, jams, etc.) A variety of salty, sweet, spicy and sour sauces), there must be a basic concept of a balanced diet.
- If you really want a snack once in a while, it's relatively simple to choose from the ingredients.
For example, I used to go to Costco with a friend to buy a potato chip made of pure sea salt. What a delight to eat back then! Since I started to choose good oil to eat and drink, one day I thought of buying it again. I went home and opened it and ate a piece. Is our nose and mouth becoming more sensitive? Or do they really have a problem with this batch?
Simply put, feed yourself delicious and natural food, and you will be able to automatically distinguish the difference in taste after a long time! Although it depends on how sensitive it is, at least most of them can still be distinguished. (There are taste muggles in the family, so I believe that the talent of the sense of smell and taste is still very important!)
It was written in the book that I could even eat artificial additives, preservatives, etc. About 3% of the population completely follow the talent route, about 20% can be roughly divided after training, and the rest is the tongue A Muggle of the discerning world. No matter how Muggles are, they can still be the best among Muggles. It is not surprising that one day the accumulated experience is enough to suddenly realize that it is easy to enter the 20%.

love what you choose, choose what you love
The brainwashed people recommended by others will never be able to make themselves calm and fully accept the approval.
It is good to make choices that you can agree with. You can't achieve the persistence like those who are experts. At least you can let go of your own attachments. Instead of being obsessed with what to do or how you can't do it, it's better to look at the information of various positions and see how you can simply make a good taste like you are watching the game guide. You can go wherever you can, and the rest is optional! After accumulating over time, seeing myself who has gone further than I imagined, how satisfying is that coolness!
Just like in the past when some of the party partners were vegetarians, everyone would naturally think of vegetarian options every time (and often accidentally came up with more delicious ones). smile. I made dumplings once, and it turned out that vegetarian dumplings were more popular than pork dumplings (the two were only short of ground meat), and everyone rushed to eat them, and they felt even better!
After a long time, everyone should know that if you are willing to accept, you are willing to accept . So I don’t take the initiative to tell you about it. In recent years, I have occasionally mentioned that I have read some books with amazing healing effects of eating the right things. I found that most of them recommend whole plant and vegetable food (but it may also be too lucky to choose books.) I just picked a similar category haha!).
I feel particularly impressed by Taiwan's friendly environment and the natural surroundings. It's really worth being proud of Taiwan for itself. Most of the villagers have a high degree of acceptance and a wide understanding. In Taiwan, you can casually say "I'm digging and eating vegetables!" You don't need any explanation or reason. etc. for confirmation. Going abroad to see, just talking about things that can't be added will be annoying haha!
I once had a dinner party with my friends and my old brother who was already vegetarian at the time. The boss has cooked fish and meat all his life, and his friends are also meat eaters. He asked casually, without expectation, if he could make a simple vegetarian egg fried rice? (Brother originally planned to eat white rice with pot side dishes + side dishes) The boss was so considerate that he went in and out three times to check carefully what he could eat and what he could not eat! The final product is delicious, I will have another plate right away and share it with everyone! Lovely coincidences in this type of life are heartwarming and unforgettable!
my home now
- Eggs: Eggs made news a long time ago, but then my mother stopped buying eggs. The daily diet is also very natural. I don’t particularly want to buy eggs. I don’t feel that I have to eat them. I eat the gifts given by my friends, and only once in a few years will I suddenly want to eat preserved eggs or salted eggs (usually, it is the memory that is brought back by seeing food articles...), or similar to mayonnaise memories ( "Anything Add Japanese Mayonnaise" experience record ), more like going to India to eat super delicious egg curry (really not an exaggeration).
- Milk: My elder brother doesn't like the taste of milk very much. I even laughed at him because he drank too much when he was a child. I once appeared at home two or three times briefly, because I wanted to experiment with electric cooker yogurt, and I was lazy after playing it twice, and I didn't particularly like it anyway.
- Ingredients: After several years of brainwashing with my mother in various aspects (including health, raw materials, oil odor, etc.), I have graduated from my family for a long time.
- Oil: As the head of the purchasing team at home, it is just right to buy a whole box of good oil at a special price.
- Vegetables + seasonings: There are small markets that are grown and sold nearby, as well as large fruit and vegetable markets that can be wholesaled, as well as various wholesale stores. You can buy extra-large 30kg rice, unbleached sugar, and you can bring your own container and scale. It is an interesting place to dig treasures.
- Bottles and jars: keep it carefully when shopping, gifts from friends, and alms with friends, you can immediately fill the inventory area, and it is easy to use in various sizes!
Like my work? Don't forget to support and clap, let me know that you are with me on the road of creation. Keep this enthusiasm together!
