I've been eating more and more vegan than vegetarian... cutting the amount of dairy and eggs I'm eating by at least half. And most of that is eaten outside of my home, because I'm not buying much any more.
This morning I had to make an early run to the nearby Big City so I could pick up some things for work. On my way home I stopped by Wendy's for breakfast, which is always an egg and cheese biscuit. Sure you risk a scorching case of diarrhea and there's enough sodium to harden your arteries almost immediately... but I've got Imodium in my car and they're delicious enough to be worth the risk of heart disease.
What I love about Wendy's is, unlike xMcDonald's, you're not forced to pay for ham or bacon that they then remove from your order. Nope. They charge you for exactly what you're getting because it's a menu item.
Usually I get one chocolate milk and one regular milk with my breakfast. I mix them together to get choccy milk that's not too chocolatey.
But this morning I had a Coke Zero, because milk is not something I enjoy as much as I used to. At home I never buy it, and instead use soy or almond milk on my cereal. And because of that I seem to have lost my passion for the stuff. The cheese and egg on my biscuit sandwich is plenty.
I'll still eat ice cream, of course.
If you can call a Wendy's Frosty "ice cream."
I think it's more like "ice-cream-adjacent."

We’ve finally fully given up on regular milk here too. Before Nate, we had skim milk around d for drinking and cooking, when he arrived, we started with whole milk like you’re supposed to with an infant/toddler, but we stopped buying our skim milk because we hated having two milks around. We just never drank it and would use whole when a recipe needed milk. We weaned him down to 2% and eventually skim, all the while I pretty much gave up on drinking milk. Katie’s lactose intolerance became apparent so we started buying lactose free stuff for her and for cooking. But now that Nate is also lactose intolerant, all we have around is lactose free milk.
