  • It’s an acquired taste

    Vegan topic of today is acquired tastes; things you used to dislike but have learned to eat or even like. Here’s a list of a few of mine. Oatmeal. Nowadays I can hardly imagine life without it, but as a kid I refused to eat it. Mushrooms. Their spongy and…

  • Restaurant tip: Govindas

    I really have a million things to do today, so this post will have to be a quick one. It could always be useful to know where to find restaurants serving vegan food. So, here is a tip relevant mainly for residents of Lund: Govindas, at Bredgatan 28. Being a…

  • Recept: Nattgröt

    Efter gårdagens vägg av text på engelska tänkte jag skriva ett kort och koncist inlägg på svenska idag, för omväxlings skull. Ett recept, hör och häpna! Starkt inspirerad av Angela Liddons recept vegan overnight oats, har jag skapat en försvenskad version av denna frukosträtt. Nattgröt 1 dl havregryn En mosad banan…

    Starting off Vegan Month of Food with some musings around the standard question: so why are you a vegan? I’ve been vegan for one year and three months, to date. It started as a one-year pledge, to see if I could do it. Apparently I could! I might have failed…

  • Veganism and inspiration

    It’s been over nine months now since I went vegan, so I thought it might be time for an update on how it’s going. Fairly well, I’d say! Well enough that I’m considering sticking to a vegan diet even after my one-year pledge wears out. I’ve managed to survive without…

  • Take Me As I Am

    You know what I think the hardest part of being a vegan is? It’s not resisting the occasional cravings for milk or cheese or fish or bacon or whatever. It’s not the limited options of edible things in many restaurants and supermarkets. It’s not even having to turn down free…

  • Going herbivore

    Oh yeah, so this is actually a pretty major and possibly even relevant thing to blog about. At midsummer (that is… wow, three months ago already!) I made a pledge to go vegan for a year. As part of the annual promise of Blackout Sabbath to change something in my way…
