@@raidenyvelina8558 I was going to say the same thing! she's fantastic. Such infectious energy

[@xFoxyMulderx]

Alexis is the Ms. Frizzle if the plant world ❤

[@alonefrootloop4853]

I’m so happy to see Alexis up there doing her thing! Her content has really inspired me to get more into foraging and it’s really changed the way I view my town! Congratulations!

[@micabryt]

“We don’t get to choose the pace at which people change-if they choose to change at all, but… some people will be sweet and appreciate you for meeting them where they are.” 💝😭💖

[@Cherryoak]

Alexis is soooo funny, completely fills the room with her personality.

[@ixchelssong]

Your body language brings back memories. When I was in school studying plant ecology, there was a kind of joke. We would sometimes have a mixture of plant people and bird people on a hike. The plant people would look at the ground and make all kinds of noise, while the bird people would be looking up at the trees and stomp all over the plants! 😅😅

[@kaylala1217]

I loved this talk from start to finish, your humor is so special and is such a beautiful delivery for this sometimes intimidating world of veganism. Thank you and congratulations!!

[@lexicaprise1216]

I’m so glad she stayed true to her personality for this 🥰❤️ I’ve been following her on tiktok for over a year now and she’s the best ❤️

[@wkhgasmr]

I'm already obsessed with her but seeing her in a TED talk just made me so much more proud of her. I love you Alexis Nikole!!!

[@cedricliggins7528]

This woman is incredible. Im a fan for life.

[@xeniebaby]

Her comedic, personal, and positive approach is definitely the way forward in promoting veganism

[@Robin.Greenfield]

The plant world is happier and healthier with Alexis as one of their spokespeople!

[@TheConfettiDress]

OMG Congrats to Alexis, this is incredible to see you on a TED talk stage!

[@aos757]

Loved hearing the "happy snacking, don't die"

[@ixchelssong]

I used to work for the Forest Service as a botany tech. When I was in the field, I would often come across things I wanted to eat. (Eg. blueberries, Oxalis, or redbud.)

[@landonkamps7308]

I think this is the most enjoyable presentation I’ve ever seen. I love this person.

[@msNatWilly]

The audience was eating her up from the beginning! (No pun intended) Love her tik toks, personality, and admire her knowledge on foraging and plants! Soooo interesting!

[@henrysansone5501]

[@AwfullWaffle]

I feel like Alexis Nikole could deliver me the most unimaginably horrible tragic news, and it just wouldn’t sting as much coming from her. What an awesome person!

[@WhyDeannaWhy]

This woman is just amazing! So glad she's here to teach us new concepts about eating and sustenance. 🎉

[@mac4668]

[@newstep818]

Love her!❤️❤️❤️❤️ She needs to be on PBS! But I guess Tik Tok has greater reach audience-wise. Her pointers can save many lives during a famine.

[@kebapgaming]

She is on PBS!

I love this!! Very informative and joyful. Thanks for taking the time to put this talk together :)

I’m not a vegan, and likely will never be. However, I’m more than happy to try new veggies and I really want to expand my garden experience to include natives on the dinner plate.

icon! legend! the moment!

[@deinajames6501]

She makes me happy

[@prehistoricorchid3455]

Personally my dream would be to have my own little garden with quail/chickens and maybe like 1 cow or just get cheese/butter else where like a friend. That way I know for sure that I'm treating my animals right and I'm not using harmful products or throwing stuff to waste. Self sustainable and foraging and a step to that because I love love love foraging

[@dianacortes4253]

Sadly, you can't get milk from just one cow

[@thegreattortoiseom]

I would get more than one cow. They are super social and they have best friends.

[@dianacortes4253]

@@thegreattortoiseom what I'm trying to say is that cows need to be constantly pregnant and giving birth in order for them to produce milk. It's not something they do on their own

[@thegreattortoiseom]

@@dianacortes4253 of course, but you don't need to have a bull. Also if it's for personal use, you'll use less milk and the calf can actually feed from the mother.

[@DaniCrimsonRed]

Omg so proud of you gurl.
