    • @aaziataylor9841
      @aaziataylor9841 8 лет назад +29

      I mean... to say being vegan is better for your health is kinda broad. It's easier to get protein and iron deficiencies from being vegan rather than being an omnivore with a balanced diet. And vegan alternatives (like fake cheese) aren't even close to being available to everyone lol so why would anyone switch from the real thing to something that costs twice as much. But yeah, as far as 1st world countries go, there's not a huge reason we shouldn't have a mostly plant-based diet other than the fact that meat tastes good and is an easy way to get the protein humans need.

    • @hhgreggfan
      @hhgreggfan 8 лет назад +47

    • @kiyomarios5085
      @kiyomarios5085 8 лет назад +38

      +not ryan ross not every vegan is rude when talking about that stuff, i think it's sad people think of veganism as something ridiculous or bad (I'm not saying you think it's bad). But it's nice you don't eat meat, and can appreciate this video :)

    • @laylaflame
      @laylaflame 8 лет назад +54

      In contrast to Mandys comment, I didnt feel any different going vegan. I went vegetarian first, took me about 2 months to completely stop eating meat, then after a year I started going vegan and it took about another 2 months to cut out animal products. I've now been vegan for 2 years. And mentally, I was so angry at first because I was learning so much that I wish I had known earlier, and it can be hard to not push things onto people your close with.
      So basically what I'm saying is, even if you dont feel amazing or you make some mistakes, dont give up. The more and more you learn, both about the health and ethical benefits, it gets so much easier. Also health wise, you do need to do some research to ensure you get the right nutrients, since some things are a bit different to omni diets, i.e. B12, omega 3&6, iron, etc. But good luck! Being vegan is awesome:)

      Even if I do it for a month, I probably won't stick to it. I don't have anything against veganism but it just isn't for me. I'm not talking about being away from meat but like, I love food. I don't want to have to limit my options.

  • @gomezaddams6470
    @gomezaddams6470 7 лет назад

    53 years of veganism here. I'm so glad to see young people doing this thank you so much! And for the people who don't like maybe the peppers or whatever she's adding to the chickpeas remember you can use celery and onions whatever your mom put in tuna! when you do the cake make sure you find vegan chocolate chips and Ghirardelli I believe is one of the companies that you can get easily at the grocery store and they say that it's made on Machinery that uses milk and dairy products but all the tests done on a 2020 show they did not find any products whatsoever that contaminated vegan food. And this wasn't done by the dairy company this was done by an independent vegan group. It just has to be put on there in case somebody's got violent allergies and they die so they don't get sued. so thank you so much for doing these videos and keep it up you're doing such a good job and you have a lot of subscribers I haven't checked to see how many Watchers you really have but good for you and I'm really proud of you. just keep moving forward! as you go on your spectrum will be broadened and you'll just find more and more things that are quick and simple raw foods are so easy sometimes you don't need all the dehydrating and all that always. So just keep going and maybe I'll pop in here and there if you don't mind and help with hints. I've been doing this for many years and cooking for many people. Thank you!

    • @andreaa.9709
      @andreaa.9709 8 лет назад +41

      For the mayo in the chickpea tuna, you can substitute hummus or pureed white beans (w/ a little oil or water). For the milk, just use water or make oat milk (just blend rolled oats with water in a 1/4 ratio, so 1/2 c oats and 2 c water etc., strain out the pulp after blending very well). For the cheese, either leave it off or sprinkle some nutritional yeast. There are some homemade vegan cheese recipes out there, but they look complicated and expensive.

    You could use this dip, before cooking it, to put into a gutted cob loaf to be baked!!
    It makes the bread crunchy and you use it to dip into the dip in the middle 😍😍😍😍 yummo!!

    And I am so glad that I have found your channel, I was wandering on youtube vegan channels for so long and tried to make multiple recipes, but even if stuff looked pretty, I just didn't like how it tastes, me and these people just have different taste buds, AND THEN, in most unexpected moment- you showed up, and food which is easy to make for a kitchen loser, looks good and most important- is delicious. I seriously love this channel.

    • @ItsDarcey
      @ItsDarcey 8 лет назад

      My favourites are oat milk, hazelnut milk or rice milk. all of them have a natural sweetnes to them and they work realy well in smoothies, with cereal/porrige, or to drink on their own. Now the taste of vegan milks can vary A LOT depending on what brand it is. I have tried many oat&rice milks that I dont like the taste of, but then I found some brands that I love :)

    • @sarahconnor4984
      @sarahconnor4984 8 лет назад +1

      I don't like the extremelly sweet taste of most of them, soy is my favorite. Anyway the flavour changes a lot from one brand to another, you may not like one brand's almond milk and love the version other brand makes.

  • @butterflyl0ve212
    @butterflyl0ve212 7 лет назад

    Loved the chocolate cake recipe. I tweaked it to make it a bit healthier. I had some garbanzo bean flour so I used it. I also substituted almond butter for the sweet potato purée and I added a tsp of mashed banana for the oil. So freakin’ moist and delish. I went for a mix of cake and fudge texture and it was definitely a hit!!

They're not against me being pescatarian but I'm only 14 and I don't think they'd want to have to cook different things just for me. Can anyone help me on how to tell my parent that I want to go vegan?
