Christmas at the Rascals'!
I got it the recipe for this squash stuffed with apple cornbread dressing from that Philadelphia Inquirer article, and it became the center of the vegan part of our Christmas dinner! Well, we ended up just buying vegan cornbread from Whole Foods. It was supposed to be delicata squash but we couldn’t find that so my mom got this carnival squash instead; it had a sort of pumpkin-y flavor. The...

Product review: Lydia's Kale Krunchies!
Remember that lecture your mom gave you when you were a kid about how it’s better to pour your servings out into a bowl or individually-portioned baggie before chowing down? Your Mom never tried Lydia’s Kale Krunchies. A food that we don’t bother pouring into a bowl speaks more to its unspeakable goodness rather than, say, our innate inability to wait until we can get to a...

The Year in Food: Vegan Goes Mainstream!
Y’all! I wrote a piece for SFoodie about the veganism mainstreaming in the bay area via trends in pizza, fancy-ass restaurants offering vegan tasting menus, and an East Bay vegan dining EXPLOSION! Ow! Also, check out VegNews fabulous 2010 vegan mainstreaming article. Covers so much amazing shit that’s happened for veganism this year, it’s ridiculous. High Five, 2010! 2011, you...

Vegans represent on Dear Abby!
A few weeks ago, Dear Abby published a question from a reader with an obnoxious brother who insisted that an entire holiday meal for 13 people be vegan because he has two vegan daughters. Dear Abby was horrified and told the dude to tell his bro and his daughters to stuff it and if they want something vegan at the meal, they should bring it them damn selves or just not come, i.e., MERRY CHRISTMAS,...
