This Week's Top Story

And the #Veganuary 2024 Vegetable of the Year is ... Drum Roll Please!
|
|
|
|
|
Dear friend, it has to be all about Veganuary this week of course. Seems we're off to a flying start with the likes of Meghan Markle, J.Lo, Billie Eilish, Liam Hemsworth and Blink 182 drummer Travis Barker all in the headlines as proponents of veganism or at the very least, a healthy plant-based diet.

Here's a quick selection of this week's Veganuary links ...
|
- Veganuary 2024: This purple tuber will be the “hottest” versatile vegetable of 2024
- Veganuary turns 10: How plant-based foods took over Europe. "Giving up cheese was the hardest"
- Boojum Introduces brand new meat free alternative for Veganuary & it looks amazing
- The Body Shop embraces Veganuary gaining vegan certification this week.
Just a quick nod here to Stoke-on-Trent Animal Rights using the first week of Veganuary to stage a protest outside Wayne Walker Meats. Unfurling a banner reading "Why love one but eat the other" they were subjected to vile verbal abuse from passing motorists, some with young kids in the car ... choice!
