The UK Vegan Food Swap has been going for almost a year, you can sign up here, but this is how it all began...

So there I was catching up on my Google reading when the excitement of The Vegan Cookbook Aficionado caught my eye. Someone had sent her food, ‘that’s nice I thought’, then I read on and I got excited. This is pratically a movement sweeping bloggersphere it’s calleRead More...

More dining establishments dedicated to the vegetarian/vegan lifestyle!

Derek Wytzka — Thu, 13 Sep 2012 10:53:38 +0100

Hello everyone,

My name is Derek, and I am hoping to open an all vegetarian/vegan cafe and bakery in Ohio. I feel like there isn't enough places that vegetarians and vegans (especially super picky eaters like myself) can go to that offers a menu that I can choose a meal from that isn't a salad or a soup. So my partner and I have created a plan to create and provide a place that is 100% vegetarian and vegan friendly that offers meals ranging from breakfast to dinner and a smRead More...

So we are now on Day 3 of our little journey into Veganism, though Anthony isn't to happy with the idea of becoming vegan and leaving behind everything that he has known for 21 years, he is very open minded which I love and respect about him. Though I put him through hell, I change my mind mostly everyday and I make him do mostly everything he sticks by me and loves me. We haven't tried any of the yummy recipes out there for vegetarian's and vegans yet, we are waiting until we have our wages Read More...

Ethletic Sneakers; no for much longer

Denise — Wed, 08 Aug 2012 15:14:33 +0100

It doesn't look like we will be able to get any more Ethletic sneakers for the future, so we are running our current stocks down.

We are already out of some sizes/styles so if you wanted to order any more of these, now would seem to be a good time to order.

We are looking to bring in our own range of European made canvas sneakers from the Autumn onwards, details to follow.

Cows have never had it so cushy. In increasing numbers, dairy farmers are pampering their cattlewith massages, chiropractic treatments, water beds, misting stations, mood lighting and classical music in an attempt to boost the quantity and quality of the bovines' milk output. One Ohio farmer admitted his cows were "real skeptical" of theRead More...

Breaking the Silence on the Grand National

Wendy A.M. Prosser — Thu, 19 Apr 2012 08:39:34 +0100

People might say I talk too much about horse racing, given all the innumerable other abuses that humans pile on non-humans. But in some ways, at certain times, the racing industry angers me even more than does meat and dairy consumption (which is a lot, I can tell you). All but the most ignorant of omnivores are at least passingly aware of the existence of vegetarian (and even vegan) opposition to their diet, though they may mock it. Complain about animal racing, however, and you get tRead More...
