Well, I think the grenade metaphor also applies to conversion to veganism. There is often lag time between the critical mass event and its accompanying decision to go vegan--and the the actual doing: being a vegan. There's intention, then the becoming, then the vegan.

I'm not one of those people who thinks family is composed of only humans or humans who are biologically related. That doesn't mean that 99% of dairy products are from family farms , as the average number of cows on each family farm is just over 100. The cows' tails swing in the breeze.
