“Dear Prudence” Slams Grandma’s Beef With Vegans

Written by Vegetarian Star on May 28th, 2012 in Children, Food & Drink.

What advice would you give to an overly concerned grandmother who, against mom’s wishes, feeds her grandchild a Happy Meal and thinks tofu over ground beef is cause for a call to the Child Protection authorities?

“Dear Prudence”, a regular feature at Slate, is suggesting granny take her Centrum Silver and any other supplements that help the elderly think because “lack of ham and Swiss doesn’t rise to the same level of concern as beating and molestation” and “probably half the children in Berkeley, Calif. would be removed from their homes if this constituted child abuse.”

Mary Whipple is a champion coxswain who’s scored both a Gold and Silver medal in previous Olympic games. Dotsie Bausch is a seven-time U.S. National bike racer who says, “It makes no sense to me that anything would have to undergo one second of suffering so that I could enjoy it.”

Jamie Oliver

“Imagine a world where mothers would not feed bottles of Coca-Cola to babies, where the ingredients would not read like scientific equations, where children and parents gardened veggies together. My wish is that in the next three years, a real, real food revolution will happen. My uncompromised belief is that, whether we are British, American, or any dude on the planet, we can make great decisions if we are informed properly. That gives me hope.”

Katie Lee

ABC’s Good Morning America is featuring several recipes for the Memorial Day Holiday and all of them are vegetarian friendly!

Some, like food critic Katie Lee‘s Pineapple-Coconut Sundaes, are even vegan friendly.

If you haven’t tried coconut ice cream as a delicious alternative to dairy, today might be a good time to do so. These sundaes show more than veggie burgers belong at the cookout, as pineapples are grilled slightly on each side before being topped with ice cream.
