Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | thanks! very interesting

I don't see myself being a true vegan. I just found out recently they don't eat honey. I never thought of that, but in my opinion God gave us honey and the bees do it with or without us. I saw an article at work today about the eggs I have been buying for some time -Phil's- being very humane! They were basically set as a great example of humane egg production. It didn't say what they did to baby boy chicks though (other places throw them alive into the garbage), but it must be humane for this association to recommend them.
I am finding it hard to be around so much meat at work (supermarket). I find it revolting and have a hard time accepting that people eat it. I just keep visualizing how it was killed. It doesn't look good to me at all. I don't care as much about hormones and anitbiotics or cloned animals or any of that- it is how they spend their lives and last moments alive that really is important to me.

IBS-A for 20 years with terrible bloating and gas. On the diet since April 2004. Remember this from Heather's information pages:
"You absolutely must eat insoluble fiber foods, and as much as safely possible, but within the IBS dietary guidelines. Treat insoluble fiber foods with suitable caution, and you'll be able to enjoy a wide variety of them, in very healthy quantities, without problem." Please eat IF foods!
