    I have gotten more confident in myself and my choices since becoming vegan. I feel like I can think more clearly.

    Re: Vegan Fire & Spice by Robin Robertson

    I just got this cookbook a few weeks ago and I have made a bunch of the recipes from it already. I love the Indian food section and each recipe is pretty easy to follow. I also find that many of...

    Re: Wasted food

    Thanks Roxy. It really is a shame how things like that happen though, it's just another piece of the puzzle that is slowly making me lose faith in the good of humankind, if there ever was any.

    Re: Wasted food

    I think a lot of it is because people would get angry if they went into the grocery store and the cut of meat, or anything for that matter, that they were looking for wasn't there. My mom always...

    Re: Scary shopping carts....

    The other day I was in a new grocery store and was looking for canned chickpeas. I figured that they would be with the canned beans and when I couldn't find them I decided to ask. The lady took me...

    Re: Wasted food

    I don't know how it is in other places, but I know in California, or possibly just San Diego, if you donate food at random, you can be sued if somebody gets sick from eating it. A long time ago,...
  8. Re: "So you want to eat what your ancestors ate? Are you sure?"

    I always think it's funny that people have the vision of our ancestors as being cavemen/women who ate big hunks of meat off of the bone always use the argument that our ancestors ate meat. Why is...

    Re: Scary shopping carts....

    I always get the "stinkeye" when I start unloading my cart full of random produce as the checker usually has to look half of the stuff up, or ask what it is. I guess they prefer the packaged things...

    Re: Changes in skin after going veg?

    l&ll, you sold me on that cloth. I always had perfect skin through high school and it wasn't until I turned 25 that I started getting acne. Not little pimples, but the painful cyst kind that take...

    Guam doesn't have as many of the chain restaurants as the states, thank goodness, but I have to admit I am taken aback a little if I go somewhere and I do get a normal sized portion. I have been so...

    To add to my last post, the book also talks about how addictive sugar is and the reason it's in many foods that don't need it is because companies found if they put it in, people would buy more....

    Why on earth would salt and vinegar chips need a milk derivative? I suppose it's for the same reason that our Kettle salt and vinegar chips have sugar in them. I am currently reading a book called...

    Re: Wasted food

    I think a lot of restaurants contribute to food waste as well. The meals are almost always bigger than I can or should eat and if I try to order off of the children's menu (those are normally sized...
