My entire family is vegetarian (close to vegan), I can buy tofu in the middle of Wyoming and I have a great community of online friends!Maria Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15582992268736301561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3687612438544094145.post-67417068727704847562009-07-14T18:48:37.584-07:002009-07-14T18:48:37.584-07:00Hi Sara,

And I am just so heartened by the progress we're starting to see around us all of the time. Often it is in very small ways and it's easy to be frustrated at the pace of change - god knows, the animals need the change to happen fast. Today. But it IS happening and we have to take strength from that, I think. I remember when I first saw ready-made vegan entrees in our local supermarket and was just amazed! No, I did not buy them - any more than I would buy *any* ready-made junk - but the fact that there's a market for them is an interesting development. Anyways, I'll certainly stand with you in your infiltration endeavours! :)Amandanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3687612438544094145.post-71635506607150040212009-07-14T13:08:15.751-07:002009-07-14T13:08:15.751-07:00You know, that's interesting that you would po...You know, that's interesting that you would post this now. I was just talking with Jo the other day (maybe even just yesterday, my days tend to blur) about how Food & Wine magazine did an article on a vegetarian chef, and talked about how a lot of his recipes are totally vegan - and they weren't afraid to use the word vegan or vegetarian for fear their omni readers might revolt (or whatever the reason people fear the word vegan). And how the magazine in general now even has a category for vegetarian in their menus and table of contents (so you can quickly peruse which recipes are fast, or healthy, etc). So yeah, I agree that it's becoming more mainstream, albeit in parts. Houston or Kansas City - while veg*n restaurants are popping up and farmer's markets becoming more popular these days - there is still the majority of those who scoff at the word veg*n. But isn't that the key to taking over the world..slip into everyday life without anyone really noticing until we infiltrated every molecule of humanity? :)Sarahttp://innocentprimate.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
