Bioré

I love this Biore rose quartz and natural charcoal daily facial cleanser. You just need a small little pump of it to leave your skin looking fresh and clean every time you wash your face. It smells great, is gentle on the more

I went for a bike ride trail clean up this past weekend. There was a post clean up lunch session and I turned it down because I wasn’t sure how I would feel about everyone around me happily eating hamburgers. However, when more

veganadam I have found it difficult having other people eat meat around me but I try and eat at places which have a decent selection of vegan dishes. Often that means there are at least a few other vegans about. Also most of my friends and family know I am vegan. Some of them will ask before ordering non vegan food when they are with me. For people who are struggling to go fully vegan there are some free online programmes which try and pair new vegans someone who has been vegan for a while. And challenges like the 30 day Vegan Easy Challenge and Veganuary are good too. If they can do it for 30 days, hopefully they can keep being vegan 🤣 And if they can't, there are good and kind communities around those programmes so they can hopefully get some good ideas and motivation to get a little closer to being fully vegan. 4 likesReply

david- I don’t mind when people eat meat around me. I’d prefer them not to do so but if I can’t avoid it, I’m not really bothered by itReply
kyu Ooh trail clean-up? In the Bay Area?Reply

I went here on Sunday and ordered a lot of dishes. I LOVED their Vietnamese coffee which they made using soy milk as the base. The coffee was just perfectly strong and sweet for my taste. Yummy! For dishes I ordered a Saigon more

Made this comfy, soothing, simple, healthy and nutritious Indian dish called upma! Usually upma is made with semolina (rava) but this recipe is based on millets. I loaded the upma with veggies for fiber and edamame for added more

kristig Millet is one of those things I have always wanted to make but have yet to not be intimidated since I don't know what to expect. This sounds and looks delicious!!2 likesReply
kyu This sounds great! Do you use any particular recipe? Reply
trashpicksticks Yes! I followed this recipe with some modifications. In this recipe she uses millet idlis but I just directly used millets soaked in water for 2 hrs. There are many recipes available online too for millet upma 🙂 https://youtu.be/d9yeMnT2WJg?si=yoSUhk7HExrVI4QYReply

Hello there vegan community!

Near the end of last year, a friend of mine asked if I could sit her dog for a month since she was going to travel.

The thought of having the opportunity to take care of someone’s dog makes more

unejanie i had a foster dog for 6 months. she was adopted when covid hit. i fed her vegan dog food. at the time, there was not much choice and it was very expensive. i had an acquaintance who made her own. she was hoping to sell it commercially but the process to get it approved was a grind.2 likesReply
trashpicksticks Did the shelter allow you to feed vegan food to the dog? Did you have to get some prior approval or something?1 likeReply

I came back from work today and was extremely tired to cook. Besides, I was also craving noodles 🍝 very badly. I have tried vegan noodles at a lot of Asian fusion restaurants but have never found what my taste buds were more

Used this in my snack today. I loved the crunch from the nuts and the mild coconut flavor. I loved the combination of nuts used in it. And it was just the right level of sweetness.

Unived

Arvind Animal Activist, a very hard working and impactful animal activist in India, mentioned on couple of his Youtube videos that he takes Unived’s B12 supplement. That inspired me to try out this brand.

I went here for lunch today with my co-workers. This was a really nice dish! I would have preferred the tofu pieces to have been cut smaller, but the taste was good overall.

This is the oatmilk I like! It is so yummy and makes my coffee taste heavenly ☕️ BUT the one thing that I don’t like about it is that it has Canola Oil (for the creamy texture). If anyone knows of tasty oatmilk that does more
