Fresh Vs Canned Or Frozen
Why frown at canned and frozen foods? If fresh is best and it is, then the freshest your food is at the outset, the better for you, the healthier for you, and it’s cheaper too. Health, not only includes vitamins and minerals, but more importantly, means free of harmful bacteria, virus and chemicals. Consider theContinueContinue reading “Fresh Vs Canned Or Frozen”

Saratoga Sparkling Spring Water – Warning! Since 1872. Saratoga Sparkling Carefully Curated Spring Water 28 oz. sold in glass or plastic bottles Steve bought both unbeknownst to me.

Saucy Tomato Bean Soup
Saucy Tomato Bean Soup It’s Steve’s birthday today and he wanted to start another weight loss program, so didn’t want to go out to eat and didn’t want me to cook, but I decided to make him a red and greasy as he calls it, anyway, since he’d probably change his mind – and heContinueContinue reading “Saucy Tomato Bean Soup”

Racconto Cauliflower Gnocchi
What’s wrong with this label? At first glance I think it’s gluten-free, since many companies now make gluten-free pastas using cauliflower but they also use egg in the formula, this gnocchi had no egg. Thinking further I think it’s made of all cauliflower. I just got done ricing cauliflower to use in recipes where normallyContinueContinue reading “Racconto Cauliflower Gnocchi”
Diet Coke Gipping You
Take a little off the top. It’s called skimming. Skim the product, then simultaneously raise the price. That’s called scamming the customer. Are you being scammed by COKE?

Creamy Diet Coke And Saffron
I never saw anything like it. I don’t know what made me think of combining the three, but it worked. In fact I’m drinking one right now. Feels so good on the stomach and satisfies like fat and sugar, though there’s very little sweet or fat. RICH’S WHIP 2 t. liquid equals 2 T. whipped.ContinueContinue reading “Creamy Diet Coke And Saffron”
Mitchell’s Vegan Ice-Cream
I don’t know the first thing about buckeyes, except that I’ve lived in the Buckeye State of Ohio since 1994 and it is now 2023. Steve brought this home, since we tried Mitchell’s Vegan ice-Cream in the past and liked it. I’m not sure what a buckeye is but in doing a quick research it’sContinueContinue reading “Mitchell’s Vegan Ice-Cream”
New Red Velvet Oreo Cookies
New to me. Maybe at this time in the animal-free food evolution the term accidentally vegan no longer aptly applies, since any company that originally was animal-free had to choose to stay that way to still contain no animal products, which is intentional and not accidental. That being said, I’ve noted before that as aContinueContinue reading “New Red Velvet Oreo Cookies”

What Will the NotCo X Mars Wrigley Collab Look Like?
TAFC ClipBoard: Hopefully the union will result in Wrigley and Mars turning their own tables and getting on the ANIMAL-FREE plant-based bandwagon. It sounds exciting, animal-free plant-based milk, burgers, chicken and snacks, even dog food. Hooray for Saturday. Had it been a day off I might still be sleeping, but the keyboard drew me andContinueContinue reading “What Will the NotCo X Mars Wrigley Collab Look Like?”

Majority vs Minority and Tipping Points
Majority vs Minority and Tipping Points Spanish are the majority in Mexico, Central America and South America, plus Spain and several island communities. So why immigrate to a country where they’ll be a minority? Minorities lose; they’re the forgotten people because there are so few of them, okay? You know that, no one has toContinueContinue reading “Majority vs Minority and Tipping Points”

Europeans More Receptive To Plant Fast Food Than Americans
the animal-free chef TAFC ClipBoard: Sharon’s commentary: When sales suddenly plummet, fast food giants will be bewildered. We gave the people what they wanted, now they cut and run. No, no, you didn’t give them what they wanted, you gave them what the Slaughter Industry wanted, that then used Madison Avenue to trick them intoContinueContinue reading “Europeans More Receptive To Plant Fast Food Than Americans”
Plant Based Can Be A Contradiction
Plant based designations give a lot of leeway in categorizing products based on ingredients. It can mean a product contains all plants or foundationally plant with some animal. If I make an animal based marinara sauce, it also has tomatoes in it, so it can be called plant-based or animal-based. I can make a brothContinueContinue reading “Plant Based Can Be A Contradiction”
NASOYA tofu Vegetable DUMPLINGS
One year apart I cooked and served these dumplings on separate occasions. Use any sauce you like for the dippers. The second round I added a few pine nuts to the skillet. Basically follow package instructions except for one addition: In order to soften the dumplings enough for my tastes, after I pan-fry them IContinueContinue reading “NASOYA tofu Vegetable DUMPLINGS”
I Love You Dad
They had more than enough time to reverse their decisions, regarding the ban of your animal-free sites. They banned your animal-free brand that took you fifty-one years to develop – not because of controversy, but because your words carry too much weight and power and they want it all their way. Well guess what? You’veContinueContinue reading “I Love You Dad”

It AIN’T ANIMAL-FREE if it came from the flesh and blood of animals or animal cells
SHARON LEE DAVIES-TIGHT RE: ANIMAL-FREE LAB CELL MEAT by Sharon Davies-Tight, the Animal-Free Chef If it comes from an animal it’s not animal-free. They (the people using the word to call their animal product animal-free) need to ditch that name before someone takes them to court over it. You still need to keep stables ofContinueContinue reading “It AIN’T ANIMAL-FREE if it came from the flesh and blood of animals or animal cells”

JUST EGG PANCAKE A pancake made out of just egg? Why not when it’s JUST EGG doing the bidding? Wow, what a product. Easy to prepare, serve and a delight to eat. It always comes out the same.

ANIMAL FREE MANIFESTO
The Animal-Free Manifesto written as an historical document by Sharon Lee Davies-Tight, The Animal-Free Chef People usually change themselves by seeing what they like in others and pursuing it.

Impossible Foods Seeks Approval For Leghemoglobin
RE: Impossible Foods seeks EU and UK approval for its GMO “fake meat” bleeding ingredient TAFC ClipBoard: That’s the Brits for you, always trying to stall a process, any process, until they give the okay. Supremacy at its worst. The plant is okay and the beans derived from the plant, but not the root? It’sContinueContinue reading “Impossible Foods Seeks Approval For Leghemoglobin”

Alcohol-Free vs Non-Alcoholic
non-alcoholic beer vs alcohol-free beer Who decided on non-alcoholic instead of alcohol-free? Who decided what to call it, how to reference it? Those who say general consensus or the street or one unidentified person and it just caught on, is usually the source. The Brits are known for altering culture by language, then giving eitherContinueContinue reading “Alcohol-Free vs Non-Alcoholic”
It’s Animal Cell Meat (ACM).
Synthetic or cell cultured meat and dairy is NOT animal-free. It’s grown outside the body of the animal from cells collected from the animal. It’s Animal Cell Meat (ACM). It’s made out of cells of animals, not plant cells, not chemicals. It’s not synthetic. Polyester is synthetic fabric, silk is not. Silk comes from anContinueContinue reading “It’s Animal Cell Meat (ACM).”

Shoprite: Africa’s biggest supermarket considers pulling out of Nigeria
TA-FC ClipBoard: I see Shoprite in America as having many problems, the biggest being living in the past, providing customers food items that are long outdated and passe to the point of wondering why they linger. Well, retail outlets like Shoprite are the reason, and unless they update their supermarket product lines to primarily plant-based,ContinueContinue reading “Shoprite: Africa’s biggest supermarket considers pulling out of Nigeria “
ABE’S VEGAN MUFFINS
Well, I was hoping for more vegan products in the bakery at Lucky’s Market, then these showed up from New York. Nice.They offered a few flavors. We chose lemon poppy. Then we took them over to Starbuck’s and ate them all with our coffee. That wasn’t the plan, but that’s how good they were. Abe’sContinueContinue reading “ABE’S VEGAN MUFFINS”
The Contradiction Issue
Upon choosing a healthier more compassionate diet, you will be challenged by those who have not yet taken that step, to defend your decision to not eat animals. They will argue that your animal-free diet contradicts your other animal using behaviors, thus making the issue of killing animals not worthy of consideration. They will pointContinueContinue reading “The Contradiction Issue”
I Want An Animal-Free Mall
I WANT AN ANIMAL-FREE MALL That’s right. A mall. Animal-free. A big one. With lots of glitter and big lights. With every kind of shop. Grocery, bakery, deli, shoe store, pet supply shop, clothes, hair salon using only cruelty-free products, and on and on, restaurants too. Good ones. I have a vision. And it’s aContinueContinue reading “I Want An Animal-Free Mall”
Take A Step Out Of The Ugly Past
TAKE A STEP OUT OF THE UGLY PAST I’m going to keep using the words meat, meaty, to describe the main part and/or texture of the plant until such time that meat = plant. In other words, animals will not be considered meat nor food in the future. I will not, however, refer to aContinueContinue reading “Take A Step Out Of The Ugly Past”
Contains No Animal Products
The word PRODUCT. There are many definitions and uses for the word ‘product’. Most manufacturers at this time are not going to put on their labels ‘contains no animals’. But that’s what I’m working toward. Right now the goal is ‘contains no animal products’. It’s straight forward in a language people understand. No matter theContinueContinue reading “Contains No Animal Products”
CHOCOLOVE ginger crystallized in dark chocolate
When Steve brings home specialty chocolate bars, I rarely refuse at most half a bar. We both love ginger flavor in just about anything. The crystallized texture was there, and a little reminiscent of the crystals one feels on the mouth when eating grana padano cheese, but the ginger flavor was absolutely missing. That leadsContinueContinue reading “CHOCOLOVE ginger crystallized in dark chocolate”
Labels + Current Diet Categories
Hardly anyone knows what vegan is even today nearly 40 years later. They’ve become familiar with the word, but not the meaning. They don’t get why vegans won’t eat a vegetarian burger made with egg whites, or that fish and chicken are animals. And what’s wrong with cheese? That’s not an animal. Well, real vegansContinueContinue reading “Labels + Current Diet Categories”
The Plant-Based Pitfall
The current trend in labeling a manufactured food, that CONTAINS NO ANIMAL PRODUCTS (CNAP), is to label it PLANT-BASED rather than VEGAN, or ANIMAL-FREE. Some worry about the negativity associated with animal rights groups, so veer from the usage of the word vegan on their product even though it might be vegan. Remember now thatContinueContinue reading “The Plant-Based Pitfall”

LUNA BURGER
The only good things about this burger are the packaging, the beets and that it’s pure plant. Lilly Belle wouldn’t even eat it. It looked good frozen out of the package, but it was too thick to fry, too mushy when eaten, having a gummy almost candy bar texture to it. The beets were aContinueContinue reading “LUNA BURGER”
WHAT CONSTITUTES ANIMAL-FREE TO ME
ANIMAL-FREE VEGAN COMPANIES ARE STILL IN THEIR BIRTHING STAGE What this means is that for many companies to get up and running they need to use the factories that other companies use to manufacture their goods that do contain animal products. They basically rent out the facilities, thus the common labeling of possible and/or tracesContinueContinue reading “WHAT CONSTITUTES ANIMAL-FREE TO ME”
