She added: \u201cDisclaimer: I haven\u2019t eaten meat since mid July, I still eat fish occasionally. I\u2019ve had to cook meat at times, and I haven\u2019t felt good about it. I\u2019m not vegan and I don\u2019t fit a box.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ms Dobbs said that her future cooking ventures would focus on \u201cvegetables, plants and seasonal produce\u201d.<\/p>\n
A 2013 study in the ScienceDirect journal found that ethically motivated vegetarians were more likely to own pets, and that same group of people were more likely to feed their pet a vegetarian diet.<\/p>\n
Fish and coconut are prominent Sri Lankan ingredients and Ms Dobbs previously told the Oh My Cream blog that her food philosophy was informed by \u201clayered spice, citrus and coconut\u201d as well as seasonal UK-based ingredients.<\/p>\n
Responding to a social media user who said they had stopped eating chicken since owning hens, Ms Doggs replied: \u201cI think as long as you are aware and give thanks for the animal for giving its life you naturally want to consume less or none at all. I stopped eating lamb first then gave up the rest.<\/p>\n
\u201cI only feel regret I didn\u2019t do it sooner but it is hard cooking for others and feeling like you can\u2019t have morals but you absolutely can and people will respect you for it.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
