The book started life as a housewarming gift from Anderson to her sons, but became “a project that encapsulates” all the family’s “favorite things.”

The recipe book follows the announcement in 2023 that Anderson would host a new plant-based cooking show, Pamela’s Cooking With Love. On it, influential chefs will join her to cook vegan meals in her childhood home on Vancouver Island, where she now lives. It will premiere this year on the Food Network Canada.

Dreams realized

Anderson has long harbored ambitions to share vegan cooking and recipes with the world. She told the Food Network that she first pitched it the idea of a plant-based cooking show thirty years ago. But back then they didn’t think anyone would watch it.

“This has always been my dream to have a cooking show. Always, always, always,” she said. “I’ve been an activist for a very long time. I’ve always fought for animal rights, human rights, vulnerable people, vulnerable beings and nature and climate change,” she went on. “So I don’t really even want to say the word ‘vegan’ when it comes to the show. We’re just celebrating vegetables. This is just how we eat.”

She said the same for her new cookbook. “I’m writing a cookbook and I’m not saying the word vegan in it because I don’t want to be stuck on the part of the shelf with the vegan cookbooks. I want access for all!” She said she wants to celebrate “plants, my garden, being self-sustainable… vegetables and eating really healthy, but not boring!”

It’s thought that Anderson is mostly plant-based, rather than vegan. In an interview with the Guardian in 2018, she admitted that doesn’t adhere entirely to the lifestyle. At the time she lived in France, where she ate croissants. “I do the best I can, but I’m not a dictator,” she said. “It’s a radical choice to be vegan, so I’m not so strict.”

A lifelong activist

Anderson is well-known for her animal activism, having first posed in a PETA campaign 27 years ago. Her campaigning over the years has had a real impact, with Kim Kardashian and Melania Trump reportedly having stopped wearing fur because of her. Fashion brand Prada also ditched fur after Anderson wrote to it about it on behalf of PETA.

In 2022, Anderson collaborated with French fashion house Ashoka Paris to create a new line of cruelty-free vegan handbags made from apple skin leather. The leather is a revolutionary biodegradable material crafted from the cores and skins of apples discarded by the food industry.

The vegan educator, real name Ed Winters, said on Instagram that he’s “so happy” to be releasing his second book. “Time after time, the vegans I meet tell me that they struggle to effectively talk about veganism with the people in their life, or that they feel overwhelmed by all the arguments and overcome with the emotion that arises when discussing such an important topic,” he said. “If this is something you’ve ever experienced, then How to Argue With a Meat Eater is for YOU!”

Since going vegan almost a decade ago, Winters has attracted a huge social following thanks to his educational videos. He’s particularly known for his debates, which he posts on his YouTube channel. He also regularly does speeches on veganism at UK and US universities and colleges, and he was made a fellow at Harvard last year. 

Earthling Ed’s vegan advocacy

He’s been praised for his ability to respond to a wide range of anti-vegan arguments, and he’s made appearances at media outlets including BBC One, BBC Two, Sky News, LBC, as well as ITV’s This Morning. The book will see him break down anti-vegan claims made from the likes of Jordan Peterson and Sam Harris, as well as popular arguments about regenerative agriculture and “anti-nutrients” in plants. 

This is Winters’ second book. The first, This is Vegan Propaganda (and Other Lies the Meat Industry Tells You), was published in 2022. His debut novel explored the wide ranging ways that the animal food system impacts the world, with focus on issues like animal rights, the environment, and health. 

How to Argue With a Meat-Eater (and Win Every Time) is published by Penguin. It will be released on December 28, 2023. Find out how to preorder the book here.

Titled 50 Comebacks For Vegan Kids, the book explores 50 common myths about the plant-based diet in terms of health, the planet, and animals. Solomon Tadlock, the 12-year-old son of renowned plant-based physician Brooke Goldner, wrote the book. 

Goldner is a best-selling author who says that she reversed lupus on a plant-based diet. She has written two books endorsing the benefits of animal-free eating, Goodbye Autoimmune Disease and Goodbye Lupus. 

Taking to Instagram to post about her son’s recent TV appearance on Houston channel KPRC-TV, she said she was “so proud” of his achievement. She explained that he wrote it to “help empower kids against bullies and also as a resource for information about the science that backs up the benefits of eating plants for health, animals, and the planet.”

‘Handing it to the bullies’

Tadlock appeared on TV to mark bully awareness month. He previously said that he decided to write the book because of his love of “compassionately handing it to bullies who try to talk smack on veganism.”

The book is aimed at both vegan kids and their parents to help equip them with the tools to cope with criticism. “If you are a vegan kid who gets bullied for being vegan, or a vegan parent who wants your child to be prepared to defend their lifestyle with confidence and an arsenal of facts, then this book is the ultimate armory of comebacks,” Tadlock states on his website. 

Robert Cheeke, the New York Times bestselling author of The Plant-Based Athlete, has praised Tadlock for the book. “Thank you, Solomon, for having the courage to write a book that will no doubt help others feel more comfortable in conversations and confrontations about veganism, empowering readers to stand up for their beliefs, which is one of the greatest demonstrations of strength anyone can showcase,” he said in a statement.

Vegan diets and children

A growing number of parents are opting to raise their children on animal-free diets and lifestyles. While there is a common myth that plant-based diets are unsafe for children, experts from bodies like the NHS and the American Academy of Pediatrics have stated that well-planned vegan diets are appropriate for all ages.

“The health risks of a vegan diet for children only occur if someone fails to plan it appropriately,” BANT registered nutritionist and health writer Louisa Richards previously wrote for Plant Based News. “One must ensure that kids – and pregnant people – get the essential nutrients they need.”

Sixty Harvests Left paints a bleak picture of where we are heading if factory farming is allowed to continue. It piggybacks onto the United Nations’ warning that all of the world’s viable soils could disappear within one lifetime.

Compassion in World Farming is a global farm animal welfare organization. As its leader, Lymbery is uniquely positioned to combine experience with scientific research to call for a food system overhaul.

While the focus of Sixty Harvests Left is inherently concerning, Lymbery offers hope. He suggests ways to prevent food production from condemning the natural world to an avoidable demise.

“At the heart of sustainable change lies a recognition that all life on our planet is interconnected, and that our future depends on treating it with compassion and respect. In so doing, we can protect the world’s wildlife and soils as if our life depends on it – because it does,” Lymbery said.

Sixty Harvests Left: putting factory farming on blast 

Industrialized farming is undeniably the villain of the piece. Therefore, Lymbery cites hard-hitting statistics that underscore the impact of animal rearing on the climate and our planet’s resources.

He starts by issuing a reminder that 37 percent of all global greenhouse gas emissions are generated by food production. From here, he implicates meat as an ineffective sector that is as wasteful as it is dangerous.

“Back on the factory farm, the presence of so many animals in close proximity creates a melting pot for disease, providing Big Ag with the opportunity to sell antibiotics and other pharmaceuticals to farmers,” Lymbery writes in his “Winter” chapter.

“It is no coincidence that 73 percent of the world’s stock of antibiotics goes to farmed animals, largely to ward off diseases associated with intensive farming. The biggest six drug companies rely on the animal farming sector for $9 billion of sales each year. These enormous numbers show how Big Ag thrives while animals and the countryside suffer, and ordinary farmers go to the wall.”

Lymbery informs readers about the risks of zoonotic diseases (which he calls “pandemics on a plate”) and wild species decline. He then delivers a killer blow, revealing that 36 percent of all edible crops (enough to sustain half the world) are used for animal feed.

Finally, Lymbery suggests an alternative to food production as we know it.

Restoration and regeneration

The final chapter of Sixty Harvests Left showcases why a move away from animal products is essential for survival. Alongside, Lymbery spotlights the work of those looking to restore a natural balance to food production.

He states that moving away from industrial to regenerative farming techniques would not be a regression. Instead, he calls it progress which will prevent catastrophic breakdown in sixty harvests’ time. 

Rewilding is called for on a massive scale and Lymbery also supports newer farming methodologies with sustainability at their core. These include vertical farming developments and the production of climate-friendly plant proteins to feed the ever-growing global population.

What could have been a depressing overview of the damage already done to the planet somehow retains an optimistic vibe. Moreover, it offers practical advice. Lymbery has not lost hope and nor have his supporters.

“In this beautifully written book Philip Lymbery describes how intensive agriculture harms the environment and inflicts suffering on sentient animals,” environmental campaigner Dr. Jane Goodall said in a statement. “But after visiting with and talking to those on the front line – scientists, farmers and food providers, he is able to show that there are sustainable alternatives. And that they are working. There is indeed hope for the future of our planet, and each one of us can play a part.”

The post Sixty Harvests Left: Existential Threat Of The Food System Laid Bare In New Book appeared first on Plant Based News.

To celebrate the release of his new book, Stic kicked off the “STRIVE FOR THE FIVE” event series at Gifted BK (an art and culture space in Brooklyn, NY) this past October 8, 2022.

The event was actually a very enlightening panel discussion hosted by Marlon Rice (an advocate for community service in Bed-Stuy Brooklyn). The discussion featured Stic alongside four guest speakers (who he hand selected) to break down each one of the 5 Principles in his new book.  

The Five Principles of Wellness

The 5 Principles are as follows: Knowledge, Nutrition, Fitness, Rest, Consistency. The event featured talks from experts on each of these principles. Here’s what they said.

1 – Principle of Knowledge

Moved by the idea of “mindset matters,” the first principle of knowledge was covered by contemplative artist, meditation guide, mindfulness instructor, and creative strategist Kenji “Zen” Summers. With 1,759 consecutive days of meditation under his belt (and counting), Kenji took us all through a powerful meditation exercise to assist all attendees in grounding themselves to the present moment.

Bombarded by distractions all day long (in the form of social media, news, ads, etc.), Kenji went on to share that mindfulness is about extending the space between stimulus and your response to it, so that you can return to yourself. Stic added that knowledge is the foundation principle, and it’s important to understand what’s going on in the mind as it will truly shape the overall mindset. If we know ourselves enough, we can use discernment to properly add and remove things to truly live our best lives.

2 – Principle of Nutrition

Known for being one of the most important pillars for overall health and wellbeing, guest speaker Charlise “Vegansoulicous” Rookwood was next up, sharing her wisdom on the second principle: nutrition.

What is unique about Charlise’s journey is that nutrition for her comes, sadly, from a place of survival, losing four relatives to stomach cancer. This experience armed Charlise with the knowledge of how vegan foods can be used not only for health, but also in creative and delicious ways that honor her Jamaican and Mauritian roots (and if you do not know that Jamaican and Mauritian foods are amazing by now, you are truly missing out).

Shocked by the lack of access to education available to the Black community worldwide (particularly in America), Charlise longed to create a space that the community can relate to without mundanely lecturing anyone into a healthy lifestyle. Being super intentional with the idea of veganizing Jamaican and African food, her show The Black Vegan Cooking Show was born.

Stic veggie-backed on the subject of nutrition to share that his journey started at age 21 when he was diagnosed with gout (from living an unhealthy life, he said). He realized that some major changes needed to be made and was inspired by his son’s mom, who shared that the body could heal itself given the proper tools to balance itself out. Stic stressed that we must be diligent to find out which plant-based foods are best for our bodies.

To paraphrase further, health and healing are not necessarily a one-size-fits-all approach. We are all unique in our own ways with different health and medical histories, and it’s important we find out what can serve us properly for optimum health.

3 – Principle of Fitness

Calisthenics legend and special guest G.I.A.N.T (Hassan Yasiin) of the Bartendaz led the discussion for fitness, which is the third principle featured in The 5 Principles book.

He mentioned that the general public do try to figure out how to get their bodies moving, but are often met with feelings of dread. This feeling comes from the fear of not knowing how to perform movements properly, fear of failure, a lack of motivation/understanding and more.

What G.I.A.N.T said next was so revolutionary and overlooked that it made fitness seem very simple. He shared that fitness is simply movement. It is the universe’s movement because we are all pieces of it. We can find movement all around us from the cellular level (within us) and scaling that all the way outward to a planetary/universal level.

When it comes to fitness, movement first starts in the mind. If we can somehow turn off the TV, put the cell phones down, and learn how to move ourselves and the mind, then everything else in the universe will move with us. Applying this idea to actual fitness, G.I.A.N.T said that pull-ups allow us to pull ourselves up and get closer to the universe. We can also push up past negativity.

We should move and live our lives with the goal of being functional in our individual and unique bodies. The challenge is to think healthy thoughts which will lead to a healthier lifestyle which leads to healthier movements (movement of the mind, body, and more).

4- Principle of Rest

Reiki practitioner, initiated medicine woman, and founder of holistic healing group Minka Brooklyn, Aki Hirata Baker was next up to share what she’s learned via the fourth principle of rest. She encouraged us all to think about how we can pivot away from the idea that rest is necessary simply because of energetic depletion. And, how we can address the ways in which our minds are constantly pushing to achieve more, because we are collectively conditioned to feel like we are never enough.

She further explained that the Earth and nature provide us all with the resources we need to feel rested. Sadly, the fruits of colonization worldwide drill down the notion that we must continue to chase our goals, or else we will never be enough.

When it comes to ideas, material things, and actions, Aki asked us, what things can we leave behind so that we can start to truly rest?

Many of us are either active “grind-aholics” or recovering “grind-aholics.” In the busyness of our day-to-day lives, we do not often think about how we can respect rest in a way that gives our life energy a chance to catch up and replenish itself. To close out this segment, Aki taught us a form of Japanese intentional breathing for de-stressing called “ibuki.”

5- Principle of Consistency

Stic was the highlight of the panel discussion as host Marlon Rice steered the conversation his way to speak on the fifth pillar of consistency. Stic spoke about the ways in which he places things in his toolbox to stay inspired and consistent.

He revealed CT. Fletcher, David Goggins, and G.I.A.N.T are three people he follows to stay inspired via talks, videos, books, and more. Additionally, Stic went into the idea of finding a community – a friend or tribe of like-minded individuals who have similar interests and ideas that you have.

Consistency helps with building a community of support and vice versa. This community can help make sure you are consistent for your personal desires and goals. They will be accountable as your support system so that you can achieve what it is your mind has set out to do. 

What was compelling about the this portion of the panel was that Aki shared how consistency is a bit malleable, adaptive, and looks very different for her. Consistency for her means acceptance that she is a multifaceted, curious, and spiritual person that needs the ability to frequently switch things up to explore other ideas, actions, etc. for balance.

I think a lot of us have curious minds, and it was affirming to hear that we shouldn’t default to beating ourselves up for not sticking to one thing for very long periods of time. As long as the parameters are healthy, it is okay to be consistent in exploring new or different things. After all, life is about learning and the only way to learn is to be open to exploring new things, ideas, etc.

STRIVE FOR FIVE

Currently, Stic and his team are looking to bring the “STRIVE FOR FIVE” book tour to LA, Atlanta, Oakland, Denver, and Miami. His overall hope/aim for his book is to help inspire healthy living. I truly feel he’s off to a great start, especially with such an incredible event in Brooklyn to kick things off. He brought together a cast of guest speakers who have all been pillars and leaders in the health and wellness communities online and offline for years.

This by far was one of the most potent and diverse conversations that I have ever experienced. It added tremendous value to his book release and additionally to the lives of all of the attendees as countless conversations anchored in love and enthusiasm sparked as soon as the panel discussion ended. Even if you didn’t get a copy of the book that day, the level of wisdom and love that was poured into you as an attendee listening to the discussion was truly nurturing. Authors who do very insightful events like these make you want to be their customers for life.

Plant-based, which is thought to have been first used in language in 1960, is given two definitions in the dictionary. 

The first is “made or derived from plants,” and the dictionary cites “plant-based burger” as an example. The second definition is “consisting primarily or entirely of food (such as vegetables, fruits, nuts, oils, and beans) derived from plants.” 

Merriam-Webster defines oat milk as “a liquid made from ground oats and water that is usually fortified (as with calcium and vitamins) and used as a milk substitute.” The first known use of the term oat milk was in the 1980s. 

The two terms fall under the food category, and have been added alongside the popular autumn flavor “pumpkin spice.” 

In addition to this, Merriam-Webster has also added “greenwashing.” This denotes the process of attempting to make something appear more environmentally friendly than it actually is. 

The history of Merriam-Webster

Merriam-Webster has been publishing dictionaries since 1847, and first launched its online version in 1996. 

The dictionary is regularly updated with new words and phrases, and in recent years additions have included “selfie,” “cancel culture,” and “hygge.”

This year’s 370 new words and terms also include “booster dose,” “sus,” and “lewk.”

“The dictionary chronicles how the language grows and changes, which means new words and definitions must continually be added,” reads a statement from Merriam-Webster. “When many people use a word in the same way, over a long enough period of time, that word becomes eligible for inclusion.”

The rise of the plant-based movement

The new additions were undoubtedly prompted by the rise of plant-based eating. This year saw a huge 629,000 people sign up for Veganuary, up from 580,000 the previous year. 

According to research from 2021, there are approximately 79 million vegans in the world. 

Oat milk has also seen a staggering increase in popularity, with sales doubling from 2019 to 2020. The oat milk industry alone has been forecast to be worth $6.45 billion by 2028.

The drink is hugely popular among vegans and non-vegans alike.

A study published earlier this year even found that almost half of Generation Z (those born between 1997 and 2012) felt shame when ordering dairy milk. The study also found that more than half intended to give it up over the next year.

Greek for “fasting food,” Nistisima offers an insight into dishes eaten during Lent and other Orthodox fasting periods. According to Hayden, Cypriots go without meat for a number of days during these periods. This includes the 50 days before Easter, 50 days before Christmas, and every Wednesday and Friday.

“Many people think of Greek and Cypriot food as meat-focused, but we actually spend about 200 days a year eating plant-based food. That’s because Cyprus and Greece are Orthodox countries,” Hayden explained to Plant Based News.

While many think of fasting as giving up food completely, in the Orthodox Church, it involves giving up meat and dairy and, instead, using vegetables, grains, and pulses to create simple plant-based dishes. While there are some exceptions (honey and shellfish), people typically eat a fully plant-based diet when fasting.  

Hayden said: “Of course, my background is Greek Cypriot, but the Orthodox Church is prominent throughout Eastern Europe and the Middle East. There are so many dishes and so much food from these places that are naturally vegan.”

The chef’s research for Nistisima was extensive. She reached out to monks, priests, and religious friends from across the world, which helped her develop 120 naturally vegan recipes for the cookbook.

The dishes originate from the Mediterranean, Middle East, and Eastern Europe. But instead of using plant-based meat or vegan cheese, Hayden relies on centuries-old whole food ingredients, like lentils, for example.

Plant-based diets and religion

While veganism may seem like a relatively new concept, accounts of eating plant-based can be traced back thousands of years — way before nut milk was even a thing.

Plant-based diets were typical in parts of Africa, India, and parts of the Mediterranean about 2,000 years ago. And as well as the Orthodox Church, plant-based eating is deeply rooted in various religions, including Buddhism, Hinduism, and Jainism. 

Hinduism’s strong tradition of vegetarianism stems from spiritual practice and the reverence for the sacred cow. Similarly, in Buddhism, one of Buddha’s teachings prohibits taking the life of any person or animal. Many Buddhists, therefore, do not consume animals, as doing so would require killing.

One of the key principles of Jainism is to avoid harming any living things, even the very small ones. Many Jains are strict vegetarians that abstain from even root vegetables (as harvesting potentially harms the insects in the soil). All three religions believe in Ahimsa, which means to practice kindness and non-violence towards living beings. 

To learn more about the Orthodox faith and its link to plant-based eating, Nistisima is available to buy now.

According to celebrity chef Jamie Oliver, alongside “mouthwatering recipes” the book also offers readers “beautiful storytelling.” Itamar Srulovic, the co-founder of popular London Middle Eastern restaurant Honey & Co, adds: “This book is the sunny window that everyone needs.”

It covers food, identity, health, and society. This is from the perspectives of 27 Black men – including athletes, doctors, and spiritual leaders.

Black masculinity

Brotha Vegan ‘provides theories manifested by Black people for Black people, during a time where we are revisiting Black liberation’, says editor Omowale Adewale.

It delves into fatherhood, politics, sexuality, gender, health, animal advocacy, and the environment. Omowale says it expresses ‘the many ways that veganism is lived and expressed within the Black community in the US’. This is as eating animals has been widely considered an ‘integral’ part of Black manhood.

Brotha Vegan

In the book, the contributors, which include trans men, share their relationships with animals.

Moreover, they speak out on how they ‘honor’ their Black culture through veganism. One chapter sees how the relationship between a man and his dog led to him becoming a physician.

Plant-based politician Eric Adams features in another chapter, and discusses policing and COVID-19. He writes: ‘We need to learn how to communicate with each other, we need to learn how to listen…we’re still experiencing the trauma of slavery and racism in our lives, at I believe, a cellular level.”

At the heart of healing, he explains, is the food we eat.

Community

Omowale is also the founder of Black VegFest, which is a network of African American festivals that celebrate veganism and social justice. The boxing coach and former athlete hopes to continue to inspire Black people to go vegan.

I wanted to support my community in the most incredible way possible – and still be able to defend animals’, Omowale said on an Instagram Live with Plant Based News. He added: “I knew my community would resonate with veganism.”
