Yes, my little cousin is a high-raw food vegan, and he is a complete people magnet. In stores, anyone who sees him will smile, at the very least, and many people are drawn to come closer, to talk and interact. If you want to go shopping quickly, it's better to go without him, because it will take twice as long with all the people talking to you! No joke! It's not because, as a child, HE makes it take longer - no, he's being good, sitting in the shopping cart or stroller - it's because of the people attracted to him, they take up time.
