Kathy Freston Addresses Vegs Who “Pooh Pooh” Meat-Free Monday

Kathy Freston Celebrates Her New Book Quantum Wellness

Kathy Freston, author of Quantum Wellness Cleanse, has expressed before that vegetarians and vegans need to be a little nicer to the omnivores.

She advocates utilizing non vegan businesses, for example, when a vegan product is offered to encourage those businesses to expand their cruelty-free options.

Now that Meat-Free Mondays are on the calendar, she acknowledges that vegetarians and vegans will point their fingers to the other six days of the week and demand change, but feels they shouldn’t be too harsh because every step towards less meat is better.

So don’t “pooh pooh” only one day of meat-free eating, okay guys?

“And I know that some vegetarians pooh pooh Meatless Monday as not enough. I’m sympathetic to that view, but I think it’s unnecessarily strident. For people who think that going totally vegetarian is too challenging, the Meatless Monday campaign offers a gentle entrĂ©e into the idea of eating without eating animals. My hope is that people will use the campaign as a stepping stone–first one meatless day per week, then three, then five, then seven. As we lean into meatless eating–switching out more and more meat meals for meatless meals–we end up feeling better, both physically and ethically.”

Heather Mills’ Mighty Meatless Meals In Minutes Finally Here!

Farm Sanctuary's 2008 Gala


Update: The Mighty Meatless Meals In Minutes is rumored to have been the name of Heather’s presentation at the Viva! show, not the name of the food line.

Okay. So we’ve been waiting on Heather Mills for the past century to come around and give the name of her new vegan food range.

It’s April, but not April Fool’s Day folks, and the name of her range has actually been unveiled:

Mighty Meatless Meals In Minutes.

That’s quite a vegan mouthful to swallow.

Not only has Heather come forward with the details of her food range, but she’s giving a speech and cooking demonstration about it today in London.

She’ll be giving her ‘Get Healthy With Heather’ speech at the Vegetarian Roadshow, held at the Royal Horticultural Halls in London.

Looks like Mills’ may be following the footsteps of her ex husband, Paul McCartney, who called for Meat-Free Mondays.

“Heather has been developing a new meatless meats food range over the last few years to encourage people to replace meat at least once a week,” said an organizer of the Vegetarian Roadshow event.

It’s awesome that Heather’s bringing out another option for quick, vegan meals.

Can’t wait to see what’s on the old fish restaurant menu!
