I am high school teacher so I just recently got mine through a clinic that the district set up for all the employees (Johnson and Johnson).

    Vegan in a family of meat eaters

    When I joined I had the same question. There were so many great ideas. I will link the thread below. What has worked well for me is working to cook the best possible food that I can which has meant Iots of reading/internet research. I cook some transition type foods that non-vegans can easily...

    Tofu-I'm breaking up with you

    See this is why you guys are great. Never thought to slice it thin. More surface area, more crisp, more flavor and less of that texture inside that I dont like....makes sense. Anyone have any advice on how to properly smoke them?

    Tofu-I'm breaking up with you

    My issue is seems to be not so much with taste but texture. Depending on how I prepare it, its either too mushy inside or too dry. What prompted this thread in the first place was that I spent a lot of time pressing and preparing it and carefully pan frying it with spices etc and looked damn...

    Hope for Vegans in Jesus

    Your link provides no proof that the bible indicates that any pet will make it to heaven. Only opinions of people on the matter. If you can provide me with any biblical quotes that indicate that animal souls will be/can be saved, please provide. C.S Lewis was an apologist. Which means he...

    Hope for Vegans in Jesus

    Why are you evangelizing on a vegan forum? Quite different from merely "communicating with others". Perhaps the first four questions are somewhat relevant to this forum but the rest have no place here. So to start the discussion, the only place I can recall where animals are extensively...
