    What is Happening to Veganism?

    I absolutely agree with the word veganism kept to mean no animal products used. I don't find your comparisons to be equilavent Animals ARE food. Everything that lives is food, and being omnivores we can survive eating other animals and at times it was very necessary for our survival. The...

    If Porridge (oatmeal) Doesn't Fill you Up!

    I've been just microwaving my rolled oats for 50 sec, but lately went back to doing it longer on the stove, like 5 minutes. I add flaxseeds, and now wheat germ, and either raisins or prunes, and berries or apple and cinnamon I like it better this way

    If Porridge (oatmeal) Doesn't Fill you Up!

    Dr Gregers group advocates for a porridge with barley, rye groats, oat groats and lentils---called the BROL bowl! I tried adding lentils to oat groats and did not like the texture. I just use water for liquid

    Healthy Bread

    I'm on day 3 of sourdough starter using just flour and water. I was surprised how many recipes called for adding yeast to the initial starter, as I thought that was the whole point of sourdough? Wild yeast? I made a very good bread with cooked oatmeal and whole wheat flour

    Porridge not filling

    When you routinely eat wfpb the feeling of hunger is mostly reliable, however, people do differ in when that feeling hits As much as I've tried to eat more early in the day, it takes very little for me to want to stop eating. Later afternoon through pretty much bedtime I want to eat so much...

    The Cat Lovers Thread

    If I have toast with spread and nooch I'll put a smear of spread covered in nooch for them. Sophie would much prefer to lick it off my toast :rolleyes: They all like to steal a bite and leave it on the floor. Even if they find they don't like it they still want another bite to make sure

    The Everything Non-Dairy Thread

    I've seen the olive oil ones adverised and wanted them, but the gouda was all the store carried-and it was a store coupon. I'll try the olive oil ones if they're priced right I also got Hellmans vegan mayo because it was on sale. It looks grey :hmm:

    The Everything Non-Dairy Thread

    I had $1.50 off coupon for Good Planet cheese. The store only had one-Smoked Gouda wedges. I was actually happy with that, as gouda is one cheese I've liked by FYH, Daiya, as well as making my own. I felt it has a texture easily made vegan I really disliked it. When I've made it, using the...

    The MorningStar Controversy

    While I did hear that Morningstar was going to increase their vegan offerings, I didn't really pay too much attention. I read labels :shrug:. If it doesn't say vegan I don't assume! Morningstar has had mainly vegetarian things, like the bac'n and classic burgers, and some vegan things like...

    Favorite YouTube Vegan

    I don't think they're around anymore, but Wise made chive and onion wavy chips (crisps) that were like sour creme and onion, but vegan. Now Lays has Funyums flavored wavy chips that are vegan. Funyums were my favorite snack! I must say, plain Fritos were so appreciated when I first went vegan...

    The #1 Underrated Food to Help You Poop.

    I once had a friend give me a large bag of concord seeded grapes she picked. I put them, seeds and all in the vitamix with just enough water to thin out and drank a large glass. Pooped more than when I had the colonoscopy prep

    Last Thing You Bought?

    Went to Costco after work for gas. Wasn't planning to even go in, but I did. I got a big bag of organic Matcha, frozen organic blueberries and strawberries, an 8 pack of canned organic chickpeas, and a big box of nut snack bars for my son. I bought 8 samosas from the Indian grocer on my way...

    What did you Cook or Bake Today?

    I have potatoes that are getting old, so I should potato salad too! I have celery, sweet relish and dill pickles, just made mayo, black salt--what am I forgetting? I so rarely make that. Just haven't wanted to make potatoes and they've been so cheap! Definitely will make a seitan--a shredded one...
