I can't exactly claim to be a vegan because I do eat a little organic meat sometimes to boost my iron levels. I guess I'm a fleegan?

Freegan

Freegans will eat any food product as long as it’s free. Some freegans do this because they don’t want to give money to food producers who harm animals, the environment, or workers. Other freegans simply believe that all the best things in life are free, and that free food from a friend is the next best thing to food freely given by the earth.

My younger cousin’s excitable, boisterous, Labrador Retriever was a highly accomplished Freegan Leaning dog. The dog took to food of any kind with gusto. Free food dropped during the Fourth of July was clearly his favorite. However he was more than willing to work for a meal and sit, roll over, or bark for a well earned treat. Accomplished Freegan Leaning dogs like Vinny have clearly earned new lives in a paradise realm.

Many people are unaware of their Freegan Leaning tendencies. Most people don’t bother to think about how good free food tastes, if they did, they might achieve the first level of Freegan Leaning awareness.
