Vegetarians and Vegans in America Today

By: Karen Iacobbo,Michael Iacobbo

Vegetarianism is not a diet trend, or the flavor of the month. Instead, it is a philosophy and practice with roots in antiquity. Vegetarianism has existed for centuries in much of the world as a social movement and subculture. In the United States, this subculture has existed for more than 200 years. In this book, the Iacobbos bring this thriving subculture to life. By examining its businesses, organizations, events, scholarship, and influence on the arts, and by interviewing dozens of vegetarians and vegans, the authors reveal a subculture whose members hold a variety of perspectives on everything from animal rights to advocacy, politics, and religion. Building upon their previous book, a history of vegetarianism, the Iacobbos delve into its current incarnations. They include information on the food industry, health studies on the benefits of vegetarians and vegan ways of eating, the popularity of vegetarianism, and the backlash against it. They highlight the work of vegetarian advocates and provide a glimpse of the stores, magazines, restaurants, and organizations that bring this subculture together. Finally, they include projections for the future from vegetarians, environmentalists, lawyers, nutritionists, economists, and experts in animal rights.

The Vegetarian Flavor Bible

The Essential Guide to Culinary Creativity with Vegetables, Fruits, Grains, Legumes, Nuts, Seeds, and More, Based on the Wisdom of Leading American Chefs

By: Karen Page

Throughout time, people have chosen to adopt a vegetarian or vegan diet for a variety of reasons, from ethics to economy to personal and planetary well-being. Experts now suggest a new reason for doing so: maximizing flavor -- which is too often masked by meat-based stocks or butter and cream. The Vegetarian Flavor Bible is an essential guide to culinary creativity, based on insights from dozens of leading American chefs, representing such acclaimed restaurants as Crossroads and M.A.K.E. in Los Angeles; Candle 79, Dirt Candy, and Kajitsu in New York City, Green Zebra in Chicago, Greens and Millennium in San Francisco, Natural Selection and Portobello in Portland, Plum Bistro in Seattle, and Vedge in Philadelphia. Emphasizing plant-based whole foods including vegetables, fruits, grains, legumes, nuts, and seeds, the book provides an A-to-Z listing of hundreds of ingredients, from avßav? to zucchini blossoms, cross-referenced with the herbs, spices, and other seasonings that best enhance their flavor, resulting in thousands of recommended pairings. The Vegetarian Flavor Bible is the ideal reference for the way millions of people cook and eat today -- vegetarians, vegans, and omnivores alike. This groundbreaking book will empower both home cooks and professional chefs to create more compassionate, healthful, and flavorful cuisine.

Vegetarian Magic

In Three Easy Steps

By: Karen Iacobbo,Michael Edward Gibson

VEGETARIAN MAGIC is the all-in-one guide to the vegetarian lifestyle & culinary choice. "A lighthearted & entertaining introduction," says Susan Havala, R.D., American Dietetic Association expert on vegetarianism & author of SIMPLE, LOWFAT & VEGETARIAN. The book begins with a quiz: Are You a Vegetarian at Heart? & a list of famous vegetarians. How to "change your mind, change the menu" is revealed in three steps: FREE YOUR MIND - Comments from physicians followed by breaking "The Meat Spell" (tradition & advertising), "Transformation" (stereotypes), & the "Seven Stages" of vegetarianism (what newcomers can expect). THE PLANT KINGDOM - Dispels nutrition myths & introduces meat & dairy analogs. MAKE YOUR OWN MAGIC - Upgrading favorite recipes, switching to plant-based cookery, & 32 "people-tested" recipes including all-American favorites: potpie, chili, lasagna, burgers & desserts like strawberry cookie pie. Illustrations of "vegetable people" & fairies enhance the magic theme. Other topics include the environment & animals. Appendices include "meat-eater or vegetarian?", "ten non-vegetarian reactions & resources." Karen Iacobbo hosted VEGETARIAN VIEW radio from 1992-94.
