High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Donald Watson (2 September 1910 16 November 2005) was founder of the Vegan Society and inventor of the word vegan. Watson was born in Mexborough,Yorkshire, into a carnivorous family. His journey to veganism began when he was very young, at the farm of his Uncle George. There, he says: I was surrounded by interesting animals. They all "gave" something: the farm horse pulled the plough, the lighter horse pulled the trap, the cows "gave" milk, the hens "gave" eggs and the cockerel was a useful "alarm clock" - I didn't realise at that time that he had another function too. The sheep "gave" wool. I could never understand what the pigs "gave", but they seemed such friendly creatures - always glad to see me. He realised what purpose the pigs served when he saw one slaughtered, and his life was change. At the age of 14, he became a vegetarian as a New Year's resolution, and in the 1940s, after learning about milk production, he became a vegan. In 1944 he and some friends founded the Vegan Society.
