  • I'm vegetarian. Will I do? I just made a divine white bean hummus spread. The recipe actually came from a bistro here in town, and the chef has recently gone vegan! I'm such a happy girl!

  • Its Raining Men by the Weathergirls! I use it while rollerblading and pretty much belt it out going down the street. Neighbors think I'm crazy but I don't care!

  • It started with decreasing tolerance of red meat. I started having horrible gastrointestinal side effects! Then I started reading about corporate agriculture and nutrition, and I just quit all meat cold tofurkey! Haven't looked back and don't really even miss it.
  • I have been vegetarian for over 3 years. I eat absolutely no meat, chicken or seafood. I eat very limited dairy. It is a very big misconception that vegetarians or even vegans cannot get enough protein from plants. Just think about where the cows get their protein! Fruits, vegetables, whole grains and beans have sufficient…
