      I’m a vegan I’m afraid! This means I don’t eat animal meat or any products from an animal, like milk or yoghurt. I do this because I think it’s cruel to kill an animal for our snacks, and because it’s a very inefficient way to feed a population: did you know that if the world stopped eating meat, we could cure world hunger several times over? This is because to feed animals you need more land space to both grow their food and keep them in. This means we have to clear more forests and cultivate more pretty wild lands for our farms.

      Chickens are also really lovely, pretty birds, and I’d love to have some of my own someday. I’d eat eggs if I kept my own, because chickens lay faster than you can give their eggs away!
