This is typical of what I've been eating the last few weeks.Fries and some kind of vegetarian sandwich, a sub from Subway (veggie delight), fast food from Taco Bell or Burger King (the BK veggie burger) or just making a TVP cheese steak sandwich and fries at home.
This is of course the opposite spectrum of my raw food meals, smoothies and fresh juices but I must be stressed or something.
I've also had white pasta (a big no-no for me) and white bread too (also zero nutrition). I almost caved and made Kraft Mac & Cheese in a box but thankfully gave it to the local Food Bank when I recently cleaned out my pantry to make a superfoods and raw foods shelf. Whew - that was a close one!
On the positive side I have been eating very little cheese and using much more vegan cheese. I have also not used any milk or half, preferring my new favorites, rice milk, MimicCreme (so good), almond milk (made fresh) and Hemp Chocolate milk for a treat now and then.
My veganization continues so even if I am burning the candle at both ends with junk food at least it is mostly vegan!
I credit raw food with that since you have to learn to be very creative eating raw vegan meals. I also admit that I probably like cashew and nut cheeses better than any dairy cheese I've ever had. It doesn't melt (I use Cheezly for that) but it taste delicious with crackers, fruit and wine.
I do feel though that considering my "renewed" veg status the "Veganization of Nikki" is right around the corner.
Now I've got to stop my cherry icee, BK veggie burger and Taco Bell Fresca menu items obsessions!
Suggestions? What do you do to avoid caving in on vegan junk food?
