Veg Out 386: Restaurants 

Today Sarah, Shalini and Steve discuss the recent Dr.Oz episode called “The beginners guide to going vegan without going crazy.” Which was a great mainstream look into how becoming vegan tastes great and is very do-able. Winterlicious is happening now (January 27 – February 9) and there are several restaurants offering vegan menu options this year. And don’t forget, The Totally Fabulous Vegan Bake-off is taking place on Sunday March 19 at the Wychwood Barns, near Christie and St. Clair. Stay tuned for more information about ticket sales!  

On today’s episode the crew takes on the question of what do you do when you receive a non-veg friendly gift. We offer advice and tips to navigate the sometimes tricky world of gift giving and receiving. We also talk about where to take a vegan tourist in Toronto. And we also preview the veg speed dating event. 

Today Sarah and Ana have some fun on the podcast, but also discuss some pretty important topics such as dealing with negativity on social media channels. We also discuss the documentary, Before the Flood, and the important role veganism can have in protecting the environment. Whatever your reason is for living or being curious about a veg lifestyle, keeping in mind the larger impact that your individual choices can have can be motivating when you are facing negative feedback. Social media can have a positive influence too! It can help to connect vegans around the world, it was through social media and social groups that we discovered Rich Roll, his books and podcast. If you would like to get involved with social groups in the Toronto area, or attend one of our events.
