Benjamin Zephaniah–There’s A Vegan Version Of Everything
Written by Vegetarian Star on July 28th, 2010 in Authors, Food & Drink.
Benjamin Zephaniah gave The Guardian an interview where he revealed although he’s traveled to places as exotic as Beijing to eat vegan, his favorite meal is still a simple dish of butter beans, potatoes, yam and dasheen.
Regardless of where or what you eat, Zephaniah insists anything can be made vegan.
“I can honestly say I’ve not been tempted to give up veganism in 27 years. I sometimes smell a chip shop and like the smell but then feel guilty because fish might be part of it. But I’ll go home and make vegan chips.”
“When I moved to Beijing, to study martial arts, I saw teenagers stroking cats which minutes later would be on their plates. Yet in Beijing I also found my favorite vegan restaurant in the world – Pure Lotus. There really is a vegan version of everything.”
