A Carnivore Turns Vegan
I've never liked social justice warriors. They always annoyed me, primarily because half of them seem like they're only doing it so they can post about it on Facebook and act like they're holier than thou. I've also never had a problem with people eating meat. I do, however, have a problem with the way most of that meat is obtained. It's one thing to hunt and kill your food- it's quite another to have entire warehouses packed with living beings who are slaughtered brutally by the thousands after a lifetime of mostly suffering. It's quite simple for me, it's a principle based on survival of the fittest- if I can't kill it myself, I don't deserve to eat it. I would be the predator that failed to catch its prey. If I was desperate maybe I could, but at this point in time there's plenty of other things to eat.

Gerald RogersPublished 7 years ago in FeastPolly Want a Cracker?
Have you ever made snack crackers at home? Most people don’t. There are so many savory varieties on the market; it seems faster and easier to pick up a box of munchies at the market than to go to the trouble of baking up a batch yourself.

Mixing different combinations of flavors can be exciting for chefs all over the world, but the ingredient of miracle berries can actually alter one's taste-buds' shapes to enjoy certain ingredients in a brand new way. The ingredient is known as "Miracle Berries." The berries grow on a shrub named "Synsepalum Dulcificum."

The day I turned vegetarian I was four years old. Seems rather young, I know. But what happened traumatized young me, and older me is so stubborn that I have just never turned back.
J.C. MariePublished 7 years ago in FeastWhat Have Vegetarians Actually Done to Help?
Becoming a vegetarian or vegan was never an option for me, I may have thought about it once or twice in life but I love experiencing food. Textures, flavors, temperatures and even the sound of different ingredients put together make me love life even in the darkest moments.

Not sure how to vote – Here’s what I do - go for the candidate who eats the best food, with the best food tastes and possibly similar to you, you’re sure to get on and agree on their policies.
Zena Leech-CaltonPublished 7 years ago in FeastWest Indian Beer Nuts: An Easy Addition to your Snack Routine
Peanuts and popcorn are so overrated when you’ve been exposed to West Indian dry snacks. These snacks are mostly crunchy, sometimes spicy, and almost always delicious.
Chantelle SPublished 7 years ago in FeastWild Garlic Aioli
Now what really is Aioli, some times spelt Aoli or Allioli? All pronounced Ay-Oh-Lee. Of course it’s a garlic mayonnaise of sorts but, to use eggs or not to use eggs? Traditionally Spanish aioli was made with out eggs carefully emulsifying garlic with oil. Aioli originates from France but it has become popular in Italy, Spain, Portugal and Malta not to mention Britain, although often we cheat mixing a garlic clove in a pot of ready-made mayonnaise! While the Italians add mashed potato and the Maltese tomato. But I came across an emulsified quick and easy milk version from a Spanish chef friend, which fascinated me, I’d never seen anything like it before and had to experiment.

Today my children fancied chips and curry sauce, a bit unusual for a Sunday but I thought I would indulge them especially since my Northern hubby loves a good haddock and chips from a proper chippy. So after quite a long google search trying to find a good sit down fish and chips restaurant open on a Sunday – there we were tucking in to crispy battered fish with good ole soggy chips and a pot of luscious curry sauce.
