Oh my gosh, there’s another one!

St. George's Market

My name is Kira, and I'm vegan. You probably don't know me. This is because I'm new(ish) around here. I was the creative director for T.O.F.U.'s fourth issue (and also a contributor), but now Ryan's asked me to help out with blog posts, so hopefully you'll be seeing my name a lot more! Read More »

I think from this day forward I'm going to be disappointed whenever I fail to come home to my mushrooms being couch potatoes or an onion taking a bath. Read More »

Upscale D.I.Y. tofu gaining popularity

Oru

Alright, so maybe it's not as neat as the way we make T.O.F.U. around here, but I did think it is interesting to learn that a lot of upscale restaurants are now preparing their own tofu instead of simply buying it from a store. Read More »

Did someone say pancakes?

Pancakes

Taken from the first issue of T.O.F.U., I still tend to believe this is one of the better pancake recipes out there, but I'm willing to have someone shovel pancakes in my mouth to convince me otherwise! Read More »

The Pleasants in a mirror

I seem to be in a bit of a funk over the past couple days, and inspiration is not coming so quickly. Luckily, amidst all the news on Libya and other world events, I've also been coming across things like the video below. Read More »

Trying veganism despite the reasons against it

Calendar image

My interest in this blogger's recent decision to try veganism for thirty days is not so much in his decision to do so, as that sort of thing is happily popping up all over the web. It is more in how disinterested he was in trying it for so long. Read More »

Vegan Weddings: Vega(awwwww)n or He(a)r(t)bivore?

Chocolate hearts

Alright, it's Valentine's day. I'm not saying you have to go crazy to celebrate it, and I'm sorry if you were trying to avoid it, but I figured this little piece of news was not going to have a better time to be mentioned. Read More »

Veganic Agriculture (or Lierre Kieth is Full of Manure)

Stéphane's vegetables

Despite the abundance of evidence against Keith's book, one thing that stuck with me was her argument about farming's inability to truly be a vegan endeavour.
