Let’s play a quick game of “what if.” What if your dog bites a neighbor’s kid and they need surgery? What if you’re at fault in a car accident that puts someone in the hospital for months? What if a guest slips on your icy driveway and decides to sue? None of these are pleasant…

Vegan eating has traveled a remarkable road—from fringe curiosity to mainstream option, with plant-based choices now on menus and grocery shelves everywhere.
