America’s favorite pigs, Babe and Wilbur, have shown the world just how cute, clever, and compassionate pigs really are. Most people don’t know that pigs are very similar to “man’s best friend”: dogs. Pigs are friendly, loyal, and very intelligent—they are even considered to be smarter than 3-year-old children.
If you’re not convinced yet, maybe the adorable photos below will help you reconsider and leave bacon off your plate.

Keep in mind there are tons of faux bacon products to choose from that are cruelty-free and delish! Go vegan! xx

Too long to explain here, it's long enough for a novel.
Father loves to farm, be self sustainable, loves to read, he's a antiques/vintage auctioneer, art student, and looks like mr. Rogers. My mother is a Montessori teacher and is amazing with children, all about local organic foods, loves gardening, cooking etc. my sister who is nine years older than me was into indie music and introduced me to all sorts of things at a young age. This all rubbed of on me and from that base I grew into similar things. I'm an INFJ
I'm tall, a geek, nacho - obsessed, I love sewing and Cath Kidston, also I'm vegetarian (wannabe vegan.)
Well let's just say life ain't always beautiful but it's a beautiful ride. I love all my pets and would do anything for them. I have one dog, two cats, a ferret and my babygirl shaymin,(the cutest hedgehog alive) I'm into all different kinds of music. I'm a singer myself and love art.
I love animals about as much as rock, heavy metal, tea, and coffee. Hoping to make a difference and help animals through PETA!!!
I want to get into marketing but not have to rely on people which have different morals and worldviews than I do to hire me. While I'm figuring this out, I want to show everyone what I believe in and spur them into action against injustices.

I am Angela. When I am not helping animals I am listening to music, reading, or playing video games. My spirit animal is a fox and I love nature. What else is there to know? Want to know anything about me, need advice or anything message me :)

If you can eat bacon without killing the pig, go for it. otherwise, it is wrong, simple.

There’s this stff called smart bacon. It has the same taste (which is just salt & grease), and texture. It looks diffedrent because there is no yucky fat.
