“It’s like I have a magic, secret toolbox that handles everything and I want everybody to have it because it’s amazing. It really opens your heart up and takes the gunk away. All that nasty food we put in our body that is just gunking up our system … it’s hard to know what’s your right move. So I feel grateful for (my diet) because of the clarity I feel.”

—-Alicia Silverstone, creatively stating how a vegan diet helps her maintain a busy routine and keeps her looking great for performances like her recent play, Time Stands Still.

“There is a great variety of fresh fruits and vegetables in season in the winter. Just because it’s cold out doesn’t mean you have to give up these foods! Even if it comes from a state or two away, it’s still better than importing fruits from another country, which can raise the cost of the food due to shipping, and it’s not what Mother Nature intended for us to eat in the winter. We need hearty foods that will keep us warm! There are clementine and mandarin oranges, grapefruit, pears, persimmons, lots of root vegetables such as turnips, sweet potatoes, and rutabagas. Leeks, kale, fennel, cabbage, cauliflower, celery, and radicchio!”

—-Kim Barnouin, co-author of Skinny Bitch, during an interview with The Phillyist.

“I wish for everyone to create a strong, sustainable movement to educate every child about food, inspire families to cook again and empower people everywhere to fight obesity.”

—-Celebrity chef Jamie Oliver, in a speech at the 2010 TED: Ideas Worth Spreading conference.

Oliver thinks every child should learn to cook 10 meals before they graduate high school.

That’s real cooking, ladies and gentlemen. Emptying a dehydrated packet into dried ramen noodles doesn’t count.

If you have a high school senior heading off to college, start the 10 meal goal tonight by making Oliver’s Vegetable Jalfrezi Recipe.

Watch the clip to hear Jamie’s thoughts on what’s happened to milk–it doesn’t sound pretty.
