I am a vegetarian that is lactose intolerant and who has a mild allergy to dairy. I find his message very informative. Thank you for sharing this!

He also indicates which recipes are vegan and those that can be made vegan (and how to do that). I think it's his conversational tone that really works for Jane. If you're unsure, but interested, perhaps you can borrow a copy from your local library. Hi Becky, Jane's said it's the one cookbook she'd get anyone going veg. She finds it very inspirational. And yes, his message is potentially more impactful than most other vegan outreach. Most people are more likely to make a small change to their diet rather than a radical one. Hi vernon, Thanks! I knew I'd read it somewhere and neither Jane nor I could remember where though. There have been comments that distribution issues will not allow for that "saved" grain to actually make it to the starving people. But I'm sure the logistics could be worked out over time. Hi kara,

If america cuts meat by 10% there will be enough grain saved from raising livestock to feed every starving person on the planet. I read that 10% figure in John Robbins -The food revolution.

I use it almost exclusively. While he is not veg, I appreciate how he educates that even a small shift in eating patterns can have a significant and far-reaching impact in the world.

But he is spreading the word about less meat...relating it to the trendy anti-global warming campaign. I never even picked up his cookbook as I know he’s not vegetarian.
