. . . party, wedding, or holidays . . . raw food just doesn't play a prominent roll in a majority of people's life. The cooked food goes first. This blog isn't about raw food since we keep that part of our life fairly simple. Rather, this blog will highlight the cooked portion of our diet. This seems the hardest part for people to wrap their mind around. What do you eat if you don't eat meat, dairy, and refined carbs? Lots! Food is good!!I grew up in a large family. Being in a large family we didn't eat much meat, so becoming vegan wasn't a hard decision. I liked vegetable. Meat needed too much seasoning
to taste good, in my opinion. When I married my husband, I thought he was on the same page as me. It took my twenty some years to figure out that he wasn't. It wasn't my denseness rather that love is blind. Not that we didn't eat meat along the way. Now we are on the same page (I think.). Food prep is easier. I love the variety vegan food brings into ones diet. I am grateful to be living in the US where we have the worlds foods to experiment with. Now days my husband and I explore the many ethnic stores that dot our city. My brother-in-law commented that I would have a hard time moving since I would have to leave behind my beloved stores. This is not completely true since the internet has opened up a whole new set of options to consumers. Even my sister, who lives out in the middle of nowhere, can buy the most exotic ingredients.
Whereas the internet opened the world to consumers, blogs opened communication amongst individuals which makes knowing about people worldwide more intimate. I feel that the blogs help bring vegan food to a whole new level. It not only became more well known, but the food also became better tasting.
