Going Vegan

” I wanted to show–through my actions, words and normalcy–that anyone could be vegan. And enjoy it. And make it work.

“After all, I was once a meat eater. And for years, I was the vegetarian who said I could ‘never give up cheese.’”

“America needs a President who will deliver concrete reforms that fill the gaps in our food safety system.”

Veganism

I understand veganism as a process and a commitment to living a life with compassion. Veganism is not a stable or unitary response to production and consumption, it is active and comprehensive in its consideration of how best to respond to the commodification and degradation of life that takes place in the contemporary context of agribusiness production. Veganism is not even just about animals, it’s about people, the producers, workers, transporters and sellers of food, it’s about the environment, it’s about our whole relationship to the big broad world out there.”

Food Blogging

“Now, vegans talking about food is a bit of a cliche [...] what you eat is as big a part of veganism as what you *don’t* eat - since we have to eat something and all - so I am going to talk about it and sucks if you don’t like that.”
