By this point we can pretty much agree that meat consumption is hard on the planet. But does that mean we should all be vegetarian...or vegan? Not everyone thinks it’s that easy, not even BA’s senior cooking editor Sarah Jampel and video host Chrissy Tracey, both lifelong vegetarians. On this episode of the Healthyish podcast, Sarah and Chrissy join Amanda Shapiro (not a lifelong vegetarian) to talk about their plant-based paths, when and why they break the rules, and how to cook to please even your most carnivorous friends... just in time for your July 4th parties.
