“I’ve always called myself an animal lover. And yet I ate them. Until four years ago I would be driving past these cows on pastures, and think ‘What a lovely life that is,’ and I’d go and order a steak. It takes a click, just one light bulb, and you’re like ‘I can’t do that anymore. Someone mentioned ‘If you knew what chicken looked like or you knew how chicken was made, you’d never eat it again. Something snapped.”
—Ellen DeGeneres, in an interview where she discusses her journey to veganism. The article includes some tips on going vegan from DeGeneres’ personal chef, Roberto Martin, who’s just published a cookbook.

Comments Off on Meatless Mouthful–Bryant Terry Inspiring Non-Privileged Vegans (Video)
“So often, I think that the stories that are told are from young, privileged white kids. Part of my goal is to shed light on other communities that haven’t had much of a voice. To just say that fixing food is going to help resolve issues in these communities — it’s not looking at the bigger picture. If we do have access to healthful foods, that would address a lot of other issues.”
—Bryant Terry, during an interview promoting his latest cookbook, The Inspired Vegan. With evocative chapter titles such as “Freedom Fare,” “Detroit Harvest,” and “Winter in Hong Kong,” The Inspired Vegan is a collection of Terry’s cooking instructions for his favorite fruits, vegetables and grains combined with stories that highlight issues of food justice.
Below is a clip of Terry reading a passage from The Inspired Vegan, “Farm Fresh,” a chapter dedicated to those working hard to keep our food supply stable, despite financial, weather or political setbacks. “Farm Fresh” contains mouthwatering recipes such as Coconut Quinoa and Smokey Tomatoes, Roasted Plaintains and Crumbled Tempeh, so the video is definitely worth taking a listen to–before heading out tonight to purchase the book.
