10/10. But as someone who eats a vegetarian diet, I found it necessary to learn a lot about nutrition to protect my health, so I expected to do well. That quiz is a bit biased toward vegetarian eating too.

Good for you! But I do hope you are well educated on nutrition. Getting proper vitamins (especially D) etc on a strictly vegan diet is difficult, and you can't count on sunlight alone in Kansas (above 30 degrees latitude).

I did get sick before I got hip to what was missing from my diet. B12 mainly comes from animal sources, as the quiz alludes to. I'm not vegan--I just prefer not eating meat. No religious/ethical position is involved, just food preference.

So I prefer not to say "I am a vegetarian."
