Thanks for the links, Korn!
I don't drink coffee, tea, or sodas.
Only before one of the five or six triathlon races a year, or my four or five big-time swim races, do I eat a caffeinated vegan...
I can't stand PeTA.
I wish they did more action, and less sexism/racism/classism/fat-ism. I *want* PeTA or any leading AR groups to be radical and push for real change; but the public isn't as...
I'm not going to read this thread...
...but it is RIDICULOUS that anyone points to protein as a need for brain growth.
The brain is mostly FAT. At least 60% of the brain is fat. Brain size is...
Great site! Good work.
You know what? I let my seitan sit for a long long while. Also, to increase firmness, I start with CHILLED water, put the seitan in, and bring it all to a boil. Start at CHILLED, end at boiling. That...
yep. boil, then fry.
You seem to be using raw seitan.
it needs to be boiled in a rich broth for 3hrs+, then sliced, then cooked. Mine comes out fantastics.
Thanks for posting this. I will pass this along. Perhaps I can visit sometime.
I just make sure that the foodstuff didn't have animal products incorporated as part of the recipe or on purpose.
If my french fries don't have animal ingredients as part of their ingredients, or...
I had bad eczema on my hands for year. I could barely rub my wife's shoulders for a massage, and my skin was so flaky and thin that my hands would puncture when holding paper clips. All was not well....
Thanks for posting this Korn! DFANA is one of my favorite books of all time.
I put bananas in (almost) everything, including oatmeal. Also walnuts. And flax oil. And berries.
How to make oatmeal:

Watch this. You'll be making the cheapest stuff that fills you up.
Instant has a high glycemic index. It digests very quickly....
Oatmeal, while not my favorite food, is generally considered the best, cheapest food to loose calories with. This is not a statement made by veg*ns, but rather by dominant omnivore fitness...
I was "neither".
PeTA videos turned me off. So did their literature. But, at the same time, I went from omnivore to vegan in the 4 hours between breakfast and lunch. I did it quickly and...
I want to fourth/fifth how awesome Earth Balance is. Rockin'.
I think that that distinction that "scientifically" grouping mammals into omnivore makes sense, and that even some species in the taxon "Carnivora" eat only plants.
...but I also get the reality...
I am pretty active too.
I frequently bike to work, and have to sit through meetings and make good impressions.
I don't wear deoderant at all.
I just 1) Shower often 2) change my clothes often...
I would go and have tofu at a restaurant that makes it well first.
Going in to cook it without knowing how amazing it can be is to cook things blindly.
I suggest you go to a veg*n friendly...
I don't think animals can tell at all.
Perhaps, what occasionally can happen is that some people might smell better (ie. no rotting smell coming out through the pores), but that wouldn't apply to...
I suggest you go to a La Leche League meeting. They generally know all their stuff well.
If your child is colicky, I suggest reading "Happiest Baby on the Block". Best book I read for early...
awesome.
What I care about isn't just plain suffering, but rather suffering which I as a human participate in.
Just as with Human Rights, I do not concern myself with situations in which people suffer...
I go there and eat french fries, and that's about it.
I've had the same issues, to some extent.
The trick is about what is available.
If your roommate is sabotaging your habits, you might need to set up some rules so that his/her habits don't rub...
When I first went vegan, I didn't cook for myself for nearly two years.
Heck, my problem is that I go out to eat TOO MUCH, and my money gets all spent on eating out.
If you need to figure out a...
Well, what are your reasons for being vegan in the first place?
I shop union when I can.
I don't know if that is "fair trade", but sometimes the two aren't the same. What I do try and do is support workers campaigns around food issues, such as boycotting...
My kids are happy with the vegan food I feed them.
They are thriving.
^ This does change things.
I responded as if it was a potluck in my life... where it is a no-big-deal event like the Holiday party. No one is leaving, it's just a party where everyone eats what I...
Hummus with pita!
Frankly, this always annoys me. I need more than a side dish to eat at a function, especially when everyone eats off of my dish, and I get nothing from anyone else's. I have to...
What an absurd article. I responded...
but what I really want is the pointless stories that aren't even connected to veganism to stop.
This weekend was the 2010 Michigan Masters State Meet!
It was so much fun! I even got to swim a relay with a former Olympian, and just about every pool record fell. The competition was MUCH faster...
I gained 35 lbs over the course of the five years after I went vegan.
I also lost 35lbs the next 5 years.
Weight gain has little to do with anything more than calories in and calories out....
I dont' bake tofu except on the rare occasions that I freeze and thaw it first to get it *really* spongy.
What I normally do to get my tofu to really rock is this:
1) Acquire high quality,...
Protein for running is the biggest BS ever, especially for long distance runners.
These two should be enough:

Dave Scott won more of the Iron Man Kona World...
The number of animals an area can hold is not a measure of the health of an eco system. Rather, the measure of biodiversity is a closer match to ecological health. Thus, for the health of an...
