| 0:20.0 | I founded Compassionate Cooks to empower people to make informed food choices and to debunk myths about vegetarianism and animal rights. |
| 0:27.0 | I do this in a number of ways through cooking classes through this podcast. |
| 0:32.0 | I have an online cookbook. I give lectures and workshops, I write |
| 0:35.9 | articles and essays and I produced a cooking DVD. You can learn more about who we |
