though I recently discovered that Oreos have been reformulated to be vegan
This is kind of fascinating.
Also, fwiw, your statements resonated with me, as I feel similarly not-why-I'm-a-vegetarian, even if I'm not hardkore vegan like, you know, vegans. I do admit a tiny thrill whenever I meet another vegetarian, though. There are very few at my workplace. This may be the same thrill I get when I meet someone who enjoys emacs. (There aren't so many of those at my workplace, either, though in my mind, the vi people and we are one group against the masses using nedit or "emacs, but only for the drop-down menus".)
I told my parents (possibly foolishly) that I would reevaluate vegetarianism at the 10-year mark, maybe start eating fish again or something. The 10-year mark was last month. I marked it, it passed, and I decided, "Huh. Guess I can stop being vegetarian later."
