To the Editor:
While my last letter about the lone star tick wasn’t meant to offend anyone, it only stands to reason that if you or anyone you know has been bitten by a lone star tick and can no longer eat meat, cheese, or other animal-derived foods, you would welcome the opportunity to enjoy great-tasting vegan foods. After all, not everyone has the discipline to eat nutritious, cholesterol-free foods, or make choices that are humane and help curb climate change and other environmental problems. Rather than eating meat, go to vegan restaurants, or invite friends over for a vegan cookout or potluck. That’s what I do, and don’t even have alpha-gal syndrome!
