Now I love pizzas. If I was to have a last meal it would most likely be a pizza of some sort. The downside however, is that pizza does not love me. Most pizzas are very greasy - especially the takeaway variety - and when you're trying to focus more on your health and eating … Continue reading Zizzi rustica pizza jackfruit pepperoni

Bat Appreciation Day
17 April marks International Bat Appreciation day! I always feel that bats get a bad rep, since it seems many people assume they are all vampires. International Bat Day was introduced by the Bat Conservation International (BCI) charity. This organisation was founded in 1982 and aims to conserve bats and their habitats through a combination … Continue reading Bat Appreciation Day
Lauduree vegan hazelnut macaron
I LOVE macarons. I have never regretted moving to a vegan lifestyle, but if there was one thing I missed most it would have to be macarons. The French kind. Especially when they are super soft and cakey in the middle but have that hard and crispy outer layer. Laduree is a French company that … Continue reading Lauduree vegan hazelnut macaron
Doughnut Time D’oh Nut
When you think of a doughnut, you think about Homer Simpson. And no doubt you drool in the same way that he does for doughnuts. I know I do...especially when it comes to Doughnut Time doughnuts. I have tried the majority of the doughnuts that they have on offer and I stand by the opinion … Continue reading Doughnut Time D’oh Nut
What is the animal holocaust?
This is quite a testy sentence that I have seen being used by a number of vegan activists, both from individuals and organisations. Whilst there is a part of me that understands why they use this language, I personally do not agree with it. I have always loved languages, especially the written language. I loved … Continue reading What is the animal holocaust?
Baxters jackfruit and 3 bean soup
It is at that funny time of year here in England where the weather cannot decide if it will be warm or cold. The temperatures are currently ranging from -1 to 15 (Celsius), sometimes multiple times in one day. I am sure there is some sort of debate to be had about the effects of … Continue reading Baxters jackfruit and 3 bean soup
Squeaky Beam pastrami
As promised, I am slowly making my way through the entire Squeaky Bean product line. So far, they have been consistently good. Their products are now becoming a stable part of our weekly food shop as their 'deli meats' are great for sandwiches during the week. Of course, the macros of the products are some … Continue reading Squeaky Beam pastrami
Should you keep your cat indoors?
I have seen this debate going around online quite a lot in recent months. There are obviously a lot of different sides of this debate so I thought it would be interesting to address these arguments. Now I will preface this by saying that I am a very nervous pet parent - I think after … Continue reading Should you keep your cat indoors?
Gregg’s Southern Fried Chicken baguette
Just before Christmas it appeared that Gregg's had removed their ham and cheese melt baguette for reasons that I still have not been able to work out. I, personally, really loved being able to buy just a basic ham and cheese sandwich from a shop on the high street that was tasty and affordable. Not … Continue reading Gregg’s Southern Fried Chicken baguette
Champneys awaken body cleanser
One of the worst misconceptions about veganism is that there is no such thing as vegan luxury. Yes you can get very high quality goods - both food and beauty wise - but the large name luxury brands very rarely offer anything that is vegan friendly. Or they do, but it is so extortionately priced … Continue reading Champneys awaken body cleanser
