It’s been almost eight minutes and shockingly, Erica, 22, still hasn’t told anyone she’s now a vegan.
Erica made the decision after realising she had a family dinner tonight. She figured it was the best way to gain moral high ground over her other cousins.
“They all know I do drugs at festivals and failed my last semester of Media Arts,” she said.
“So I figured becoming a vegan is something that puts me one step ahead — you know socially and emotionally.”
Erica said overall she has mixed feelings about tonight’s dinner.
“I’m both anxious and excited about making a fuss with the waitress and making everyone else feel guilty about ordering the steak special.”
Erica said she was going to alert her best friend, Ruby of her new plant-based lifestyle but was worried she may hop on the bandwagon.
“I think tonight [at the family dinner] is the perfect opportunity to announce my new approach to life,” she said.
“I was gonna tell Rubes but was worried she might steal my thunder, go ahead and be a better vegan.”
UPDATE: Following two weeks of pursuing veganism, Erica has since reverted back to eating meat.
