This week the bearded duo ask whether or not vegan advocacy that focuses on food and palate pleasure is actually harmful to animals. Should our discourse focus exclusively on the ethics? Is vegan foodie culture shifting attention off the animals and onto human-centric pleasure?
Plus they go over their top 3 vegan finds at Expo West and discuss the news including the first company producing clean meat for companion animal food and Trump withdrawing organic animal welfare regulations.
