Food That Makes Sense

You may be wondering  "How does the food on this blog make sense?  Why is it different from other food blogs?"

Here are 3 reasons (though there are probably millions of reasons) why this food makes sense.  Enjoy!

1.  Food should make you feel good.  

In all of my years of non-vegan eating I ate a lot of food that did not make me feel good.  Never once did I look at my empty plate of chocolate cake, steak, or ribs and say to myself "I'm so glad I ate that, I feel like I could take on the world, and I have no guilt whatsoever!"

Believe it or not, there is food that will make you feel those things.  And I plan to explore those foods further on this blog.

2.  Food should make the Earth feel good.

There is a part in all of us that feels great when we take the extra step to put our empty can in the recycling bin.  Once I became aware of my food, where it comes from, and the impact it may have on the planet, I felt the same way about abstaining from animal products and (most) processed foods as I did about recycling.

I plan to provide some ecological information on this blog that will help you make the Earth happy, too!

3.  Food should make your wallet feel good.

The common belief is that shopping at a health food store is too expensive.  $10 for a jar of tahini - are you nuts?!?  But, once you become acquainted with some awesome meat-free, dairy-free meals, you will see that they actually costs less than your typical "steak and potatoes."

Pretty logical, right?  I hope you enjoy my posts to come!  :-)
