Compassion Over Killing to air two new pro-veg commercials

Starting next Monday (11th October), Compassion over Killing will air 30 second commercials portraying the miseries forced upon animals raised for food.
The ads called 'Exploring your Food' and 'A Side of Truth' are to be shown on Animal Planet, MTV and Comedy Central over the next four weeks.

I've been lucky enough to test some of Zel Allen's (Vegetarians in Paradise) recipes for her upcoming cookbook, and this was the latest trial. It's a Thanksgiving Filo Pie, filled with lovely veggies, rice and barley, and made my kitchen smell divine!

Thanks Zel!

I'm a Vegan MoFo... are you?

I signed up today for Vegan MoFo and I am soooooo excited! In fact I'm so excited that I wrote so like sooooooo, which I never normally do... Vegan MoFo is a month long celebration of vegan food, that started life on the Post Punk Kitchen and has now gone bananas! The idea is to write about anything food related all month long, it could be your fave vegan recipe, memories of something yummy you ate or your must have kitchen tool but the deal is you have to write every day if you can.
