Quantcast Vegetarian StarMeatless Mouthful: Jane Goodall Describes Best Vegetarian Meal

Jane Goodall In Conversation With Thane Maynard

“I was literally in the middle of nowhere, in a forest in the northern Republic of Congo, visiting people studying chimps. We were out one evening in the forest with pygmy trackers. They picked these orange mushrooms, along with a large leaf from a low-lying plant-I have no idea of its name. They cooked them together; the leaves made a kind of broth. It was absolutely delicious, and the vibrant orange and green colors were so beautiful. And it was definitely vegetarian.”

—-Jane Goodall, in an interview in the print October 2009 issue of Vegetarian Times.

Jane has a new book out this month, Hope for Animals and Their World: How Endangered Species Are Being Rescued from the Brink, and the renowned scientist who studied primates shares his insights on the future of the animal kingdom as so many species becoming extinct.
