Russell Simmons–You Can’t Beat A Tofutti Cutie
Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, April 12th, 2011 in Food & Drink.
Russell Simmons gave an exclusive interview to CNN’s Eatocracy where he shared his journey to veganism, including the delicious dairy-free and egg-free desserts he’s found on his way there.
Turns out, Simmons is a fan of Tofutti Ice Cream, a popular brand of soy desserts found in both natural and mainstream foods stores.
“[You can have] a really good vegan cheesecake or a really good cashew nut ice cream,” Simmons said, referring to the misconception that vegan desserts aren’t tasty.
“Soy ice cream is not bad. Tofutti Cutie is not bad. You can’t beat a Tofutti Cutie. You frontin’ if you say so. You know, the cream is not as creamy – someone might not notice it, or they might if they put them together. But you find the vegan cheesecake, if you digest it, it doesn’t stick in your chest the whole day. It might be a little lighter and taste a little better, but that takes a minute.”
