While the term “Veganism” wasn’t coined until 40’s, the plant-based lifestyle has actually existed since 500 BCE – but it never made it to the mainstream until recently. What events are actually responsible for the surge in popularity of vegan diets in pop culture?
From the first Vegan Society formed in the 1800s to plant-based meat replicas in almost every fast food & grocery store chain in the Western World – we take a look at what made Veganism go pop with our special guest Lauren Toyota, the bestselling author behind the Hot for Food cookbooks, former Much Music VJ, as well as the creator behind two YouTube channels, Lauren In Real Life and hot for food.
Join us as we are Livin’ on the Veg for a fully vegan episode that maps the syncs when plant-based became mainstream.
