Joanne Colan “Dean Of Invention” Learned How Honey Wasn’t Vegan
Written by Vegetarian Star on Thursday, October 21st, 2010 in Food & Drink, Journalists, Tech.
Joanne Colan is a correspondent for Dean of Invention, a Planet Green series that follows Dean Kamen, who generated ideas such as Segway, the insulin pump and the robotic prosthetic called the “Luke Arm” as he unveils the latest discoveries and advancements in technologies.
Colan herself takes advantage of the advancements in the availability of nutritious, vegetarian food as she travels frequently and must make use of what’s available on the road. Although she doesn’t consume meat or dairy, Colan doesn’t consider herself a true vegan, as she consumes honey.
From an exclusive interview with This Dish Is Vegetarian:
“Because her mother kept bees, my Mum (who lives in sw France) also kept bees for a little while. They were all “rescue bees” encouraged to relocate to a hive from someone’s windowsill or chimney and avoid extermination. Anyway that’s another story altogether. To harvest the honey, my mum would spin the frames in an extractor. I learned this apparently doesn’t filter the honey much.”
