Going Vegetarian

There are very few choices in our day-to-day lives that make a significant impact on the world around us, but what we choose to eat does. Eating meat supports global poverty and worker abuse, harms the environment, supports cruelty to animals, and is bad for our health. Vegetarianism is the self-empowerment diet; at every meal, you have the opportunity to live your values—to cast your vote against cruelty to animals, environmental degradation, and global poverty—and you do that all while eating a diet that is better for you than one that includes meat.

North Americans tend to center their meals around animal products out of habit or custom, but cuisines from other parts of the world focus more on grain, vegetables, and fruit. Think about it—there are far more types of vegetables than there are types of meat, so why limit yourself? Whether you’ve gone vegan “cold turkey” or just want to add more healthy, plant-based meals to your family’s diet, there are secret—and not-so-secret—tips you need to take the guesswork out of vegan cooking.
