Being vegan or low waste isnt cool. It's just being a good human and trying to be better for our planet. Just being a good person and wanting to inspire others is cool. That's what I got from this video. I still eat meat occasionally and I love vegans and vegetarians and their abilities to make food delicious. I respect everyone with different dietary needs or wants. I appreciate people. That's what is cool. Your not cool for just being vegan but you are cool for inspiring others and being heard because maybe they will take that step to be more sustainable.

I can respect that fact that she’s a celebrity and could have anything convenience wise, but yet still works to make sure waste is minimal. That’s awesome

[@nette9836]

Being low waste is actually quite a privileged position that often takes money and ideal location to do in any measurable way. Getting products at zero waste shops, for instance. Most Americans don't live near one of these so have to buy plastic packaging. Also, having the money and time to buy and cook clean ingredients is a privilege. It isn't easy or cheap to achieve this level of eco-friendliness. And when 70% of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck (particularly with recent inflation), life gets even harder.

[@freudianslippers6567]

@@nette9836 You're basing that off the US? Most countries in the world don't have low cost junk food, and massive subsidies to unhealthy "foods." Here a 4kg of beans is $4.00 and a package of large chips is $8.00, a block of chocolate is $9.00 and an apple is 0.30c. The US government really needs to look at food production/waste and subsidies because it's very obviously not working in your country. For most of us "clean ingredients" are cheaper, and more readily available than junk. Even just McDonalds, a meal there will set me back $17, while I can make a meal at home for $2.50 with rice, beans, spices and vegetables. I don't even understand how the US manages to make their very average (for other countries) nutritious foods, to be so expensive. My weekly shop is $50, and all I buy is fruit, veg and spices/seeds here and there as I need them. There is something very wrong with your country.

I give to friends a lot and they always bring me back the jars and they get a new that’s filled with jam or whatever they wish to have. Idk it’s just nice to have that part in life of growing and making your own things, and people love it much more than if you just gifted them a jar of jam from the store. It sort of goes into conversations and it’s really lovely. Guess I’m an old soul because I’m not even 35.

Protect our planet???? How will this protect our planet😂 this will literally do nothing to change any direction of a planet.

[@ohwellwhateverr]

chloe james Are you dumb? Single use plastics are highly inefficient, because they consume vast amounts of energy to make and are then thrown away and clog up landfill, which won’t biodegrade for at least 400 years. Avoiding plastics, especially single use plastics, is crucial to reducing waste and carbon emissions. Buying in bulk reduces packaging and fuel consumption. Your comment has to be trolling, I don’t see how anyone can be that stupid/uninformed.

[@benchjet]

Well that depends on from where you are, here in the Philippines our climate is too hot and humid at the same time it is impossible to buy products and produce in bulk, they will be spoiled by the time you havent even consumed half of it. We only buy at least a weeks worth of anything consumable.

[@veronicaivanova]

@@benchjet, beans, rice, quinoa, seeds and food of this kind won't get spoiled ever if you just leave in an airtight jar, so your comment is invalid. Obviously, fresh fruit and veg needs to be purchased regularly rather than in bulk as they will go bad very quickly.

I don't get why many people use cost as an argument against veganism. Many dissenters say that veganism is a rich person's lifestyle, but you can't get any cheaper than grains and beans and in season produce. Ever wonder why poor uni students often end up being vegan or vegetarian by default? Meat, cheese and dairy is expensive. Of course, vegan food can be expensive if you include lots of more luxury items, but that's the same as any diet.

[@lmay8269]

Serena V But it’s not just her children. Herd immunity is so important, her children not being vaccinated means that people with immunodeficiency’s and children who are too young to get certain vaccines are at risk just from her decision. Also it’s a very selfish thing to do, mothers in 3rd world countries walk for hours just so that their children can get vaccinated, whereas a celebrity in a first country can choose not to. Also many of the arguments people who are anti-vaxx use are disgusting and untrue, such as vaccines cause autism, this is ‘study’ was proven wrong and also I’m sure most people would rather their child have autism than have polio. I stand by my point that anti-vaxxers are horrible and selfish people. It’s not about respecting decisions it’s about caring for others as well and anti-vaxxers obviously don’t.

[@whatamievendoinghere5804]

Abc Oh 🙄 please it’s not like she’s going to throw those things away after one use

[@abcoh4440]

@@whatever5922 That is not the point. Being environmentally friendly also means not being a consumerist, specially with things that are made of plastic and are not a necessity.

I just luv how simple and down to earth you are...simple meaning real....its so lacking in many current celebs. You rock!! ❤❤

[@liletsky5102]

Such an inspiration and role model to follow👏🏻👍🏻💕

[@jackiejenson]

Love that she is vegan and cares about the environment! Such a beautiful person inside and out!

[@stanbalo]

There is something to learn from her lifestyle. I think in summary, do not be wasteful. It is an American thing to use paper to wipe kitchen counters etc. But here in Asia, you use rags to wipe everything and just wash it after. Also, buying water in plastic bottles for home use is not a common practice. It is either you boil water or buy water in this 5 gallon container that is reused over and over or buy a portable water filter you attach to a faucet.

[@judithryle2113]

I use towels, wash clothes to wipe up. I lay a towel down instead of paper towel, and throw in washer when finished

[@jamesb.9155]

Wow. So happy to see her again! She is so real inside & out!

[@Coe1303]

Alicia inspired me to go vegan for ethical reasons 8 years ago. I read something in her book about how they got milk from cows. I had no idea! That was it for me.

[@smlt3]

CoeTeak 😂 where did you think milk came from?

[@Coe1303]

I knew where it came from, I was fooled by the dairy industry to think no harm came to the animals. Laughing is not helpful for others on this journey because it can end the much needed dialogue.

[@awarenessvillage]

I'm a vegan and have been working toward a more sustainable/zero waste way of life. I loooove her kitchen!!! It's everything I'd like my tiny kitchen to be.

[@tfnvv5469]

I've been pronouncing her name wrong this whole time! I always say the name Alicia like "Aleesha" and the name Alysia as "Alee cee uh"

[@Nahneen]

I CANNOT GET TIRED OF WATCHING THIS. THANKU ALICIA. BEAUTIFUL INSIDE AND OUT. BLESS UR HEART MAMA!!

[@lorrainestrickland8660]

Wow some great tips,very informative,just wish more celebrities would live their lives by example,your Great Alicia,so many kids look up to celebrities and want to be like their Idols,just wish their Idols were more like Alicia,eco friendly,mindful and conscious of our Beautiful Planet,and doing more for the sake of our planet,we should all make a conscious effort to behave more like Guardians to our World and learn to Love,Respect and Nurture it,go with Nature not against it.💕

[@ticketyblue3080]

I worked on a tv show she was on many years ago and in set se only had vegan healthy foods. Everyone said it was her idea. She’s maintained this lifestyle for along time. If only I had the resources and energy.

[@awarenessvillage]

Get her book and start slow. And rinse your beans, especially if they come in a can. 😁

Her family is so lucky. I'm vegan but I eat a lot of junk foods and using kitchen papers, plastic bags..I'm going to use clothes as she does from now on. Thank you Alicia!

Love her kitchen ! And i love all the mason jars too

[@lindaxiong2984]

Looove Mason jars and glass jars in general. They really can be used for multipurpose. I save the glass jars we buy stuff in from the grocery store and reuse them for storage or to pack meals with.

[@christinamarie7844]

I need to be better. From now on I'm going to ask myself... what would Alicia Silverstone do?🤷💚🌎💚

[@imswaathik]

I get that for a lot of westerners this seems to be an idealistic eco-friendly life... but this is mostly second nature to South Asians, South East Asians, Middle Easterners and Africans. Using rag cloths, reusing plastic covers (yes even washing them), reusing sauce bottles etc. is all a part of everyday life. Paper towels have only recently been introduced into our kitchens again due to the pervasiveness of Western culture. It is really easy and fulfilling to live like this. I hope Westerners take inspiration from her!

[@stacym5135]

There are many Westerners who for them this is a regular way of life as well. Growing up in my house we used washcloths to wipe down tables and counters and they were cleaned in the washing machine when done and then re used. We re-used plastic food containers to store food which, btw, is looked down upon as something poor people do when they can't afford things like Tupperware or reusable glassware. It's hard for many people to find the way Alicia re uses things as a good way of life because we've been taught directly or indirectly that to do what she's doing is what poor people do. After decades of advertisements on TV, then online, in women's magazines especially in the 1970's through the 1990's, telling people to buy new things and toss out the old stuff then it's hard for people to go backwards. Our Grandparents though were pretty big into re -using things due to the Depression and they re used bottles and jars and cloth to clean and save for sewing and repairing clothing. Things are changing though and change will be enforced over time. Now if we could just get celebrities to stop flying in airplanes.

[@imswaathik]

@@stacym5135 that’s really nice to know! I hope the stigma goes away. Reusing objects is completely normal! :)

[@stacym5135]

@@imswaathik I agree. Thank you for the kind reply. Appreciate it!

[@voyance4elle]

Love it!!! I don't get the saucages though - they are processed and need a lot of energy in my experience and in top of that they seem to always come in plastic ;) I buy a saucage maybe once every 5 months or so but I wouldn't eat them regularly! ;)

Rusty Shackleford you’re not eco friendly if you eat meat. Animal agriculture is the sector responsible for the highest amount of greenhouse gas emissions, deforestation and habitat destruction
