The 30 Day Vegan
Today is the first day of a personal project in which I have decided to commit myself to abstaining from meat and dairy for 30 days. I am adopting a vegan diet (with the exception that I may give in to a bit of honey in my tea) for the next 30 days. This is the culmination of a semester long study and analysis of the United States food system. If anyone wants to learn more about what I'm doing, check in here. I would also love to answer any questions about the food industry, and have some great academic journals I can point you to!

Hey ash- it looks like you're only taking in about 1/3 of the protein you should be consuming. I realize this is only one day of your menu but I'm curious how you are getting the protein and essential fats.
I've been cooking vegetarian and vegan for a while now so if you'd like some recipes, I'm happy to help out. This should be an interesting project. I hope it goes well!
Geoff!! Yes, I would love some yummy recipes. Right now (until I can make it to the store tomorrow) I'm working with what is in the pantry. I plan on eating a lot of beans, trying out some tofu recipes, that sort of thing. Send me some of your favorite recipes, I would LOVE to try them!
ash- definitely keeping an eye on this to see how it works for you ;) i have many friends who are vegetarians or vegans and have been considering a healthier lifestyle as well....
