    India Knight in the Sunday Times on processed vegan food

    That Roger, is a very good point. It is important to be precise and "junk" and "processed" are not interchangeable.

    India Knight in the Sunday Times on processed vegan food

    Interesting article in the Sunday Times exploring the fact that processed vegan food can be really unhealthy. Its something I've been thinking about for a while. A lot of people I know are now buying vegan food from supermarkets because they automatically assume it's better for them, but as we...

    How to make delicious butternut squash pasta?

    Don't boil it, cut it into chunks, toss in some olive oil and roast in a hot oven until it slightly chars, then put it in the blender. Roasting squash concentrates the flavour, boiling it dilutes it. Hope this works...

    How to educate food bloggers

    How to educate food bloggers

    I hadn't thought of that. I wonder if a few friendly comments might be the answer. It's called London Unattached and the amazing disappearing vegan pastry is in a recipe for crab pie under a review of English wine. It's a tricky one as it's been changed as if the word vegan never appeared with...

    How to educate food bloggers

    So how do we do it? I joined this board after a frustrating brush with the editor of a food and travel website who reacted quite badly when I told her that "vegan" pastry couldn't be vegan once it was brushed with milk and egg....and anyway what the hell was it doing in a CRAB pie in the first...

    So relieved to have found you all.

    Hi there, I'm new here too. I've been a vegan for five years.

    That's reassuring! I think I'd rather be a green unicorn....but green cow seemed like a pretty good description of myself anyway!

    Hi there, I'm new here too. I've been a vegan for five years.

    I'm so fed up with people not knowing the difference between vegan, vegetarian and pescatarian that I've decided to go in search of my people!
