Well, I think the grenade metaphor also applies to conversion to veganism. There is often lag time between the critical mass event and its accompanying decision to go vegan--and the the actual doing: being a vegan. There's intention, then the becoming, then the vegan. What does this mean? What happened in those years?
We have a request, and it's an issue I've written about a handful of times but never had this particular question answered by readers: How do you talk with your vet--who is against feeding your dog vegan food--about your choice to do so? I'm fortunate to have a regular (non-specialist) vet who has no problem at all with a vegan diet for dogs.
Vegetarians and vegans know that you get protein from vegetables. Is that all these people can cook? Today's vile episode is one featuring French cooking. I have yet to see an episode featuring vegetariancooking. Vegetarians are far more predominant than people who go to snooty French restaurants.
I know some people won't read this piece simply because Ezra Klein is not vegan or even vegetarian, but I think he makes some excellent points. And, as one chef put it, cooks use meat to "express themselves." It's not about cooking "vegetarian," but cooking food you like that doesn't have meat.
One guy runs Vegan Outreach and the other is a VP at PETA (they have those?). The most constructive part of the book (and possibly the most shocking to those who are only peripherally familiar with the vegetarian movement and who might therefore expect radicalism) is the authors' discussion of tolerance in all activities.
I just wanted to introduce myself, as I thought you might be interested in knowing about my organization, Compassionate Cooks , and perhaps add us to your Links list. The mission of Compassionate Cooks is to empower people to make informed food choices and to debunk myths about veganism. All the very best Colleen
If you are already a vegetarian, make this the year that you decide to go vegan. If you are serious about losing weight and improving your health, try out a cruelty-free vegan diet for three months. You can download a "Vegan Starter Kit" from the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine here.] There's more!
Meat eaters (and even some lacto-ovo-vegetarians) think this way because they mistakenly think that vegans eat an austere, bland diet consisting mostly of twigs and seeds with occasionally some plain tasteless tofu thrown in. If you want to see just how delectable vegan food can be, check out the Walking the Vegan Line blog.
In his fresh and candid first post (available here ), Jonathan admitted that he is struggling with the issue of ethical vegetarianism. If eating meat were essential for our survival, then the hundreds of millions of vegetarians worldwide would have long since died out, but they haven't. They are alive and well.
