Healthy: Sorry, I have to vent. I came to work in a super happy mood. Yesterday my BF treated me to an Xmas shopping spree and I made vegan-conscious clothes choices (man-made materials, no leather, no fur). So I started today feeling super good.

THEN I’m in the lunch room chopping an organic apple, and I added a can of Eden low-salt chickpeas and some flaxseed oil and raw apple cider vinegar for my lunch. This lady goes to me: ‘I can’t believe you’re going to eat a whole can of chick peas!!!!!!!!!’

Mind you, this woman eats a log of cheese and crackers with her lunch everyday and sushi w/white rice all the time and Hagan Daaz ice cream too.

I NEVER say anything about her food (or the cold cuts that others eat that I have to smell, or meaty Chinese food and Mexican dishes) … but since she was criticizing my food, for the first time EVER, I brought up what she eats she got all defensive on me. It’s like, yeah, pick on the healthy, animal friendly lunches, you can dish it out, but you can’t take it!!

And as a side note here, I just finished my lunch and I’m still a bit hungry. Just goes to show that chickpeas aren’t that filling. I’m looking forward to eating a whole pineapple on my next break.
