Sorry not interested i'm a Vegan-Sexual

November 13th 2007 23:45

A new phenomenon in New Zealand is taking the idea of you are what you eat to the extreme.

Vegan-sexuals are people who do not eat any meat or animal products, and who choose not to be sexually intimate with non-vegan partners whose bodies, they say, are made up of dead animals.

Many female respondents described being attracted to people who ate meat, but said they did not want to have sex with meat-eaters because their bodies were made up of animal carcasses.

Many live by the philosophy that “You are what you eat" and are nauseated by the thought of being intimate with those who are not vegan. Some have even described "carnivores" bodies as graveyards for dead animals.

Is it just me or is it getting harder and harder to get laid these days?

Vegan, Organic Fast food

December 20th 2006 22:30

I was impressed with one place I ate at in Boulder, CO called
VG Burgers
The menu was all vegan, which is great for the planet,
Mostly organic, also great for the planet.
And all their Take-out stuff is compostable, obviously great for the planet!
They use some local products, like Hamburger and hot dog buns from a nearby bakery, which reduces transportation energy waste
I had a veggie burger and soup which was delicious, and they also have french fries made from organic potatoes, and a full ice cream bar made from soy, rice and hemp ice cream!

This restaurant is the pilot which they are looking into franchising. This restaurant is a model of sustainability and gives me hope for the future.
If you are near the Boulder area, give them a visit. Seek out places like this in your area and support them! It is this outside of the box thinking that is going to change our food, our life, our planet!

Industrious Meat

November 29th 2006 20:16

Happy Cows in Switzerland

Don't these cows have a rough life?
I wish the same scene would take place on all farms.
The cows, pigs and chickens of our meat industry live in sub-standard conditions. Crowded spaces with not much sunlight or air. Diseases spread easily and they get overwhelming amounts of Antibiotics, which gets transferred to the eater. Unspoiled rainforest lands get torn up and used for livestock for large fast food chains. So, this food source of Meat and Dairy is not good for the earth or our bodies.
Luckily, the tide is turning, awareness is building in consumers. People are learning to eat meat-free, and those who do chose to eat Meat and Dairy are demanding cleaner sources, and sustainable farming practices.
For Info on cutting out meat and meat-free recipes:
The Vegan Society
The Vegetarian society of the UK

For those who do eat meat, there is a movement of organic and naturally rasied meats.
For example, A new fast food chain is sweeping America, called Chipotle Mexican Grill, Focusing on all natural meat not treated with hormones and antibiotics. Also emphasising organic vegetables and beans for Vegetarians.
They aim to serve all naturally raised meats in two years, putting pressure on the suppliers to meet the demand.
Check em out:Chipotle
Change is happening!
