Vegetarian Air Time on PBS Cooking Shows

Lane — Fri, 14 Oct 2011 00:12:37 +0000

Someone sent me a link to a petition which I think is well worth signing... so I'm putting it out here for all of you to review for yourselves. The request is that PBS ensure that their cooking shows reflect current USDA guidelines which suggest that we concentrate on vegetables and grains and limit meat [...]

Vegan Desserts Make The Grade

Lane — Fri, 13 Feb 2009 08:04:32 +0000

I'm continually impressed with how mainstream veganism is becoming. Sure, it's not always easy to get a vegan meal at a restaurant without "working with" your server. But it is getting easier. And the number of vegan products seems to be increasing. Now, we're even getting representation in Gourmet magazine. This week, Gourmet says: Vegan [...]

Vegan Protein

So after writing about the born-again carnivore yesterday, I wanted to write a post that promotes a vegan diet tonight. This is a vegan blog after all! So what's the first thing people ask you when you say you've gone vegan? Where do you get your protein? Jack Norris, co-founder and current president of Vegan [...]

PETA Won’t Be At The Super Bowl

Lane — Wed, 28 Jan 2009 06:08:41 +0000

For those of you who don't know, this weekend is the Super Bowl. The culmination of the 2008 American football season. And perhaps the most watched event annually. PETA's "Veggie Love" Super Bowl campaign has been banned by NBC. My first reaction was where did PETA get $3 million for this ad? (Super Bowl spots [...]

Combat Global Warming – Eat Vegan

Lane — Fri, 05 Dec 2008 07:22:26 +0000

Wayne Pacelle, president and CEO of the Humane Society of the US blogged about "Your Plate, Your Planet" (in other words, what you eat affects the environment) tonight. It's something I ranted about a few times over the summer. Eating lower on the food chain is a very effective tool to reduce our individual carbon-footprints. [...]

The Vegan 100 – 100 Things You Should Try

Lane — Wed, 03 Sep 2008 03:59:57 +0000

Many of you have probably already seen The Vegan’s Hundred list. There are other ”Hundred” food memes circulating round the blogosphere (The Omnivore’s Hundred, which started the trend; and The Vegetarian’s Hundred). Generally these a little bit of fluff we bloggers can use a way of introducing ourselves. Jane and I don't usually bother with [...]

So Where Does This Guy Stand on Animal Rights Anyway?

Lane — Thu, 14 Aug 2008 06:01:57 +0000

I'm confused. I read a commentary in the NY Times Op-Ed section tonight and I really don't get what side the author is supposedly arguing. Nicholas Kristof starts off by saying: In a world in which animal rights are gaining ground, barbecue season should make me feel guilty. My hunch is that in a century [...]

Oprah’s Vegan Venture

Lane — Sun, 08 Jun 2008 07:01:53 +0000

Although we can't take credit for getting Oprah to try a vegan diet, Jane and I are pretty excited about the whole thing. I feel a little funny blogging about her so much, this is a vegan blog after all, not an Oprah blog (and I'm a guy -- next thing you know I'll be [...]
