1x01 Richmond Farmers Market - Live Bird Sales

Series Premiere

1x01 Richmond Farmers Market - Live Bird Sales

  • 2009-07-05T04:00:00Z5m

On Friday I went to the Farmers Market in Richmond, California to videotape the live bird vendors in an effort to expose the cruel treatment of the chickens. The birds are stuffed in those yellow crates, usually about 9 birds per crate, and when they are purchased they are violently shoved into paper bags (2 per bag) which are then stapled shut locking the birds inside. This vendor sells crates of eggs as well as the birds themselves, which are typically used for food or for cockfighting. Army of Compassion is working hard to end these practices. "Live animals are being sold at Farmers' Markets and shops, treated in ways that violate California's anti-cruelty laws, and are often in violation of health laws - yet law enforcement, politicians and judges have historically been reluctant to take action because of political pressure and other influences by people profiting from the markets."

I looked over this afternoon and Chance was in bed barking and "running" in his sleep, and I felt the urge to document his hilarious habits and share them with you guys. By the time I got the camera out he started waking up a bit and acting super groggy and snuggly. Adorable, no?

If you're ever in the LA area, don't miss this place. Check out their website and see their menu here: http://www.veggiegrill.com/

1x06 Vegan Brunch Cookbook

1x06 Vegan Brunch Cookbook

  • 2009-07-22T04:00:00Z5m

Isa Chandra Moskowitz, who you may know from Post Punk Kitchen (http://theppk.com/), is the author of numerous vegan cookbooks including Veganomicon, Vegan with a Vengeance, Vegan Cupcakes Take Over The World, and now this new Vegan Brunch cookbook! I can't wait to try out these delicious looking recipes.

Seed is a vegan, organic and macrobiotic restaurant in Venice, California. They offer dishes ranging from curry bowls and burgers to bbq tempeh and cupcakes. I had the opportunity to interview the owner of Seed, long time vegan and chef, Eric Lechasseur. Be sure to check out their website at http://www.seedkitchen.com/

During my trip to southern California, Jen, Dan and I stopped by Real Food Daily in Santa Monica so we could show you a glimpse of yet another all-vegan restaurant/bakery. We didn't get to try the restaurant foods, but the baked goods we tasted were all amazing. My absolute favorite was the vegan version of a Hostess cupcake (which I never used to like, but this vegan version was out of this world).

1x09 Farm Sanctuary

1x09 Farm Sanctuary

  • 2009-08-24T04:00:00Z5m

During my 3 day visit to Farm Sanctuary in Watkins Glen, NY, I took lots of videos and pictures of the animals so I could share a bit of the sanctuary (which I think is the most peaceful place on earth) with you! There was also additional footage provided by Farm Sanctuary. This video will bring you face to face with animals that have been rescued from horrible lives and ultimately from slaughter. Some were literally taken off of the dead piles at slaughterhouses. They will live out the rest of their lives in peace at Farm Sanctuary.

My good friend Stephanie Ernst, who writes the http://www.animalrights.change.org blog, posted a compelling blog entry about sheep and wool today. She wrote about common practices in the wool industry that are unbelievably barbaric and painful to the sheep, such as mulesing. This practice of tying down sheep and slicing off the skin surrounding the tail without anesthetics is something I learned about for the first time at Farm Sanctuary this summer. I always knew that as a vegan I would stop wearing wool because it is an animal product, but I didnt realize the extent of the suffering and painful mutilations associated with wool production. In this Vegan Break episode, Angela from farm sanctuary describes some of the reasons why wool definitely isnt something I want to support, let alone wear.

1x11 The Truth Behind Labels

1x11 The Truth Behind Labels

  • 2009-09-03T04:00:00Z5m

Before you go out and purchase "humane" meat, "cage free" or "free range" eggs, or "organic" animal products, take a few minutes to research what these deceptive labels actually mean. As it turns out, they don't mean much at all in terms of animal welfare. In this interview, Farm Sanctuary's director of legal campaigns, Delci Winders, speaks about the misleading labeling techniques used by animal agriculture industries to deceive the public and sell their products.

Jasmin Singer, the National Advocacy Organizer for Farm Sanctuary, gives quick witty responses to 5 questions and statements that vegans are asked all the time. It's fabulous to have the knowledge base to be able to launch into a lengthy, well researched response to questions such as the infamous "where do you get your protein?" question. However, it's always nice to have short (and fun) responses on hand. If you carry literature with you, you can then give people a "Why Vegan" brochure so that they can read more information on their own time.

*Visit http://www.VeganBreak.com for contest details! Anyone who has seen my Facebook profile recently has probably noticed that I discovered a brilliant online tool that can turn any picture into an "OBAMICON." That's right, remember those posters of Obama in red white and blue that swept the nation before the election? Well now you can make your own. Whether you are an Obama fanatic, a NObama kind of man, or you don't get yourself involved in messy political side-taking, you've got to admit this is awesome, hilarious, and altogether brilliant. Almost as brilliant as the Chia Obama (but not quite). In light of this new discovery and my subsequent addiction to Obamifying my very Obamagenic dog Chance, I have decided to hold a Vegan Break Obamicon-Off! That's right. I'm challenging YOU to make the best vegan-themed Obamicon. The winner will win a $20 gift certificate to VeganChic.com! How to enter: Go to http://obamiconme.pastemagazine.com and create an Obamicon. Just upload a photo and play around with the color ratios until it looks like a winner. Choose a fun, sassy, *vegan themed* saying. Click "Save and submit." It will ask you to register for an account, which is super-quick and free. Save the image to your computer and upload it to the Vegan Break Facebook Fan Page! *submiting your photo to the Obamicon site will not enter you into the contest--you must post it to the Facebook Fan Page!* You may enter as many Veganized Obamicons as you want. There will be 3 judges who will rate the submissions, and we will choose a winner on Friday September 18th, 2009 at 6:00PM. Now...let the games begin! May the best human win =) PS. This is also a great form of online activism because anyone using the Obamicon website will see our awesome Vegan photos! WARNING: Obamiconifying pictures is known to be highly addictive. Use with caution.

Farm Sanctuary's Susie Coston tells the story of some of the sanctuary's resident pigs and speaks about the problems with Gestation Crates.

1x15 Homemade Vegan Pizza Recipe

  • 2009-09-23T04:00:00Z5m

For some people the idea of pizza without cheese seems ludicrous, but in fact you can have a very fulfilling, delicious, and much more healthful pizza by leaving off the cheese. Many if not most pizza places don't use dairy or eggs in their crusts, so you typically won't have to feel left out if the family is ordering pizza--just ask them to hold the cheese. But if you want to have a little more fun and get creative, try making your own pizza! Trader Joe's sells a pre-prepared pizza dough (it comes in a plastic bag and is very fresh) as well as some delicious pizza sauce. Grab some garlic, veggies, and vegan cheese if you want it (Daiya works well if you can find it), and personalize your very own pizza pie.

2x04 Great Sage Restaurant

2x04 Great Sage Restaurant

  • 2010-10-29T04:00:00Z5m

Take a peek into one of my all-time favorite vegan restaurants: Great Sage in Clarksville, Maryland. Not only is the food amazing (the spinach artichoke dip is to die for), but the atmosphere and the mood of the restaurant is warm, friendly, peaceful, and a fabulous place to bring meat-eating friends. They often have benefits to support Farm Sanctuary and other organizations like PCRM, and have some great videos and bumper stickers available for sale there. If you're ever in Maryland be sure to stop by--you won't be disappointed!

During my trip to Maryland, I had the pleasure of staying at a good friend's vegan farm house. I got to take the sheep out in the morning, play with the chickens, feed the animals and more. What fun! I took some video to share my day on the farm with all of you...I hope you enjoy!

You'll also get some great ideas fro ways to incorporate compassion into your Thanksgiving. For example, each year we symbolically adopt a turkey from Farm Sanctuary and place the adoption certificate in the center of the table and give a nice toast to the turkeys. Enjoy!

50,000 egg-laying hens were abandoned at a California factory farm. They were left locked in battery cages without food or water for two weeks. By the time they were found, one-third of the girls had perished, and the rest were starving and near death. Sanctuaries, shelters, rescue groups and volunteers worked together and rescued over 4,500 of the hens, who will have the opportunity to live out their lives in peace at animal sanctuaries.

Don't live near a Whole Foods or Trader Joes? Struggling to find vegan goodies that you can afford? Look no further than your neighborhood Target for inexpensive vegan staples like soymilk, Gardein vegan meats, hummus, cruelty-free makeup, faux-leather shoes and more!

Here are a few of my favorite *vegan* things, including products from LUSH, Pacifica, ShiKai, Urban Decay and Trader Joes. Bath and beauty essentials including soap, bubble bath, makeup, shampoo, sunblock, perfume, and more. Vegan and cruelty-free, of course! Enjoy!

This is my favorite recipe for spinach-artichoke dip, vegan-style! It happens to be healthy as well, although you'd never know it, as it tastes incredible.

7x07 The Voices of Vegan | Why Vegan

Vegan activists share their reasons for: why vegan? ♥ Subscribe to World of Vegan: http://bit.ly/1WSjFSy ♥ Delicious FREE Vegan Recipes: http://bit.ly/1Q7wT9I Vegans speak out about why they are vegan—for the animals, for the planet, and for health. The vegan voices in this video include: ★ Mark Hawthorne (http://markhawthorne.com) ★ lauren Ornelas, Founder of Food Empowerment Project (http://foodispower.org) ★ Megan Rice, Awesome Vegan Kid ★ Sarah Rice, All-Star Vegan Mom ★ Ryan Pamplin, Entrepreneur ★ Darren Middlesworth (PlantFit coach and http://v-dog.com) ★ Michelle Cehn, Founder of WorldofVegan.com (http://MichelleCehn.com) Animal footage from Preetirang Sanctuary (featuring Manisha) and Happy Hen Chicken Rescue (Zoe is the superstar activist holding the chicken).

How to make aquafaba (from chickpea brine). ♥ Subscribe to World of Vegan: http://bit.ly/1WSjFSy ♥ Delicious FREE Vegan Recipes: http://bit.ly/1Q7wT9I You're going to love this easy vegan recipe for aquafaba (like whipped cream) made from chickpea brine! It's light and fluffy and perfect to dollop atop vegan breakfast foods and vegan desserts. AQUAFABA RECIPE: * Note—this makes a huge portion, but you can easily halve the recipe. - 2 cans garbanzo beans (Salt is fine, but try to get organic beans without preservatives. You'll just use the liquid "brine" from these.) - ¼ heaping teaspoon of Cream of Tartar - 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract - 1 cup finely ground white sugar INSTRUCTIONS: Mix the liquid from two cans of chickpeas with the cream of tartar. Then add the vanilla extract and sugar and whip using a stand mixer or hand mixer with two beaters for 10-15 minutes until sturdy peaks form. Don't worry, you won't ruin it by whipping it too long, just be patient! AQUAFABA RECIPE NOTES: You can use this as whipped cream, use it as egg replacer, or even bake it into meringues! I'll have a recipe for that coming soon, but in the meantime check out this awesome Facebook group where people share their "hits and misses" with this relatively new vegan food: https://www.facebook.com/groups/Vegan... Full recipe: http://bit.ly/aquafaba

NOTE: There are several islands that have swimming pigs. There is little-to-no oversight, so more tour companies are creating little pig islands as a tourist attraction. There is no oversight and problems persist across the board. We really need to take action now before the problem spreads and gets even worse! Also, I want to note that this was my experience, and my personal perspective based on what I learned and saw and experienced while I was there. I hope that it ignites conversation about these wellbeing of these pigs so that the companies who manage them are held accountable to being much more transparent about their practices instead of painting a fairy-tale picture.

Many people think it's a good idea to give live rabbits to their children as Easter presents. Most of these gifted bunnies end up being dropped off at animal shelters or in parks, where they are very likely to suffer and die. Please remember that rabbits are a 10+ year commitment, and require a lot of care, attention, expensive food and veterinary bills, lots of space to run and play. They can also be destructive to the home, chewing wood around your house and biting through cords and cables, so you will need to bunny proof your home. A cage is absolutely NO life for a rabbit. They are curious and energetic and need a lot of exercise. Learn more about rabbits at: Save A Bunny: http://saveabunny.org House Rabbit Society: http://rabbit.org Google your local animal shelter
