Purpose

The purpose of this Blog is for me to illustrate my vision of Compassionate Eating.
I have long cooked my own food and have become an Amateur Vegetarian Chef. I also travel a lot and have, for years, visited every Vegetarian Restaurant whereever I go. I want to let people know how easy it is to be healthy (but not OVERLY healthy) and have great tasting vegan food at the same time. I also want to be a vehicle for helping those vegans and vegetarians who travel find good food anywhere in the World.

Compassionate Eating means understanding your impact on the planet through the food you eat. It means that we should cause as little harm as possible, recognizing that harm is inherent to being Human, and try to minimize the pain and suffering caused by our gluttonous appetite for food; buying local as much as possible to minimize environmental concerns over transportation; gaining strength from the knowledge that nothing that once felt pain died for your Dinner.
