If you only ate a salad, obviously you're going to be hungry because that's not a balanced vegan meal or diet. You need to eat to get your daily nutritional needs.

So you can try the following foods:

Whole Grains (red/black rice, breads)
Beans and/or Lentils (good protein source)
vegetables like green leafy (spinach, kale)
Fruits
Nuts (walnuts are great)
Seeds (flaxseeds for omega3)
Plant milks (soy milk, etc)

If you don't eat well/enough of course you'll have cravings for anything else.

Some vegans like Bruce Friedrich are concerned about how ethically treated the animals are (animals being the ones people eat duh), and other Vegans are concerned about the animals all together (See Gary L. Francione), and are concered more about their freedom. I take the Francione approach.
The Francione approach? o_O

I don't agree with them about that. :P
Why would it be wrong to milk a cow and drink the milk, in and of itself?

And when you spend 7 bucks at KFC, you are also allowing to keep the property up, which will continue to purchase meat from factory farms and such. I'm pretty sure everyone knows this, but I'll say for clarifacation. If less and less people purchase a product from such industries, the industries will eventually not have enough money to keep their buinesses up, and will eventually go out of buisness (take THAT capitalists!). I guess what I'm going for here is that if you spend money for meat products, that keeps the industry alive, and will continue doing what it does (sadly) just for money, without any concern for the animals that are tortured and slaughtered. And eating the meat kinda sorta maybe means you support the tortue and death of animals. Unless you are planning on changing your diet, in which case, good on ya!
What? No, I'm just saying that buying meat is unethical, not eating it.

If there is meat already purchased, and it would go to waste anyway, it would do no wrong to eat the meat.

Unless they're rich people, and will just buy more meat after you steal their meat. So, you'd have to steal their money too so they can't buy more meat -- you wouldn't want to do that, right?

Better to take the meat off the plate after the wasteful ungrateful peeps "finish eating" and walk away. It saves the meat from being thrown away, and since those people were already "full" (for a few minutes, anyway) they won't buy more right away.

If you know any shopping malls, those are great places to nab free food.

Perhaps sage advice?

Or something.
