[@pugsondrugs5480]

Builder bars can have a lot of dairy contamination though, if you’re concerned about that. I have an allergy and I reacted to one of them BAD.

[@sacredpredictions3302]

The NoCow bars are supreme for protein and calorie amount and actually tasty! I'm very into the vanilla caramel, 190 cals with 23 grams protein. But I'm stricter with calories when I'm cutting so I usually only eat them if I'm being super active or on a long hike/camping trip

I'm not vegan because I eat eggs given from my pet hen. She is so adorable and she follows me around when we do the gardening work. I want to be fully vegan but she lays everyday.

[@anthonymarconi761]

It's quite interesting, philosophically. One could argue you ARE an ethical vegan already. You have a pet hen - most ethical vegans are OK with pets, even if some fringe ones consider that unnatural exploitation or something - your hen lays eggs ANYWAY without need for fecundation etc. Said eggs are not the result of an exploitation. The fact that they are an animal product by nature has no ethical bearings whatsoever in that case, unless you rule that "anything animal is not ethical", which is debatable. Hey, thanks for the brainstorm early morning hahah 🙏🏻

[@piau1798]

I’ve heard that you can either crush the eggs and feed them back to hens to help with their nutrients since laying everyday is leaching their body - or you could leave them in the nest to gather, hens seem to like a little cluster of eggs. Of course you’d have to be careful if they rot etc. But almost vegan is absolutely great! Love that you have a hen 😍 they are so cute. If you are further interested in the backyard hen thing, earthing Ed talked about it in a video and one of his podcast episodes:!

[@lucya8916]

Thanks Anthony and Pia! Really appreciate your thoughts :) We only eat eggs given by her and we always admire them each day (sounds crazy) but we're so proud 😄 And yes, we given her the egg shells back for grit. She goes bananas over them. Also black seeds, pea shoots from the garden, tomatoes, our leftovers. And Earthling Ed! Just discovered him yesterday so I will def check out the vid thanks :) He debates so well.

[@unoriginal1086]

Eating an egg from your pet hen isnt morally wrong or good, I dont think its a bad thing. Eggs are the only thing that can be morally farmed from animals, but if she is okay then I think it is not bad at all!

[@anthonymarconi761]

@@unoriginal1086 milk and wool can also be morally procured in some cases. Sheeps actually are relieved when you help them with an overgrown coat, and traditional farmers don't chain inseminate their cows for them to be productive. The residual milk after the veal has been fed is plenty, that's how it worked in many cultures back in the days; and still do here and there! In the end it's all about context...

[@ronnie7074]

The blueberry daiya coconut yogurt is amazing! The texture is so much closer to dairy yogurt than all the almond/oat/coconut ones I’ve tried before. I hated the flavor of peach and the strawberry flavored ones though.

Thank you for this, the video was entertaining and I got some great inspiration for high protein meals out of it!

[@bl0nders]

Would LOVE if you could do a video on Spirulina/cyanobacteria and the possible connection to ALS and other neurodegenerative diseases. Commercial spirulina can be contaminated with toxic microcystins and is considered “possibly safe” by the NIH, yet it continues to be peddled as a “superfood” added to smoothie bowls. My grandfather died within 6 months of his ALS diagnosis, it’s no joke. So is it really worth the risk?

[@shalryma]

Regarding smoothies, the banana-pineapple-kiwi-coconut milk with some coconut muesli on top sold me. It’s like heaving pinacolada for breakfast.

I was hoping you’d review this after the last video 🤗 I did a slow approach too it was pretty approachable that way and feel like I can stay vegan pretty easily now.

Pro tip: If your oven has a "convection" setting, you already have an air fryer.

[@Ghost-fe1vp]

Or a convection oven.

[@malorieann1150]

I just found a vegan protein bar at Fred Myers and it’s 20g protein in 200 calories, it’s called “No Cow” and it’s not bad!

[@JustMe-uv9vq]

I’m lucky enough to have a dehydrator mode on my airfryer. I find it does things like the crispy chickpeas and lentils really well. Once i done the normal cooking bit I’ll dehydrate them for a while until I’m happy with the texture

[@jennoscura2381]

I have a dehydrator. I think I will have to try dehydrated lentils. I can see them being really tasty if cooked in the right broth. I have miso paste. Crunchy miso lentils sound delicious.

[@snake1625b]

Never knew you could use it as a dehydrator. Probably just have to lower the temperature

[@goose7574]

Talk about the sexual innuendo... Yes! I thought the same thing! 😂😂😂😂😂

[@tinabean713]

I'm so glad fur has gone out of fashion. Like now it's something that stands out and not in a good way. When I was a kid, my grandma's family would have this annual get together and almost all of the women would show up in full length furs and pearls and diamonds...to a birthday party at a cafeteria. It was so hilariously upscale and downscale at the same time. But that's Houston for you. My mom kept going on about how she wanted one, so my dad got her a hideous 80's fur coat/bomber style jacket thing for Christmas and she was allergic to it (of course, super predictable for her). When I found out how many of each type of animal it took to make a full length fur and it made me so sick. No matter how much you love an old lady, it's hard to look at her when you know how many lives she's wearing.

[@desireemcgriff186]

Omg just by the thumbnail I can tell this will be GOOD

[@megamorpher1]

[@eflavell]

I like NoCow bars - the birthday cake, chunky pb, and cookies & cream flavors. They have a quality control issue I think though - I order them by the box and some just have wonky texture. The first box I bought was horrible (carrot cake), literally squeaky, and I thought I’d never touch them again but gave them another go and now they’re in my daily rotation. I haven’t tried the carrot cake flavor again though.

[@neveenmohammad5545]

The no cow brand of protein bars has like 21 g for about 200 calories! They’re the same texture as quest bars

[@mariadocarmosarmento9487]

Really interesting video! I haven’t find the slim bars yet but I have some of the now cow ones and they’re really nice in terms of protein content; the flavor could be better but low sugar, high protein so I’ll take it! The birthday cake flavor has 190 calories, 4 g fat, 20 g protein and 1 g sugar. Taking some ideas to try on my own, the crispy quinoa on top of the breakfast bowl sounds good!

[@jennoscura2381]

Funny enough l got into leather as a vegan. A good quality Goodyear welted pair of leather shoes will last for years if properly cared for. When the sole wears out it can be replaced. That's far better than a vegan pair that will end up in a landfill in no time. I get my shoes second hand on Ebay and thrift shops. So I am not supporting the leather industry. Leather is a byproduct of the meat industry. So even if I get new leather I am not really contributing to the exploitation of cows. Wool on the other hand is the primary product. So I don't buy new wool. I know that plenty of vegans will want to revoke my vegan card for wearing leather. But I don't see any conflict between second hand leather and my vegan values. I hope for the day that clean leather and clean meat are readily available and we can stop killing cows for their skin and muscle tissue.
