Summary

From meat-free 'chicken' nuggets to non-dairy ice creams, plant-based foods that actually taste good are becoming increasingly available in grocery stores. In many ways it's never been easier to find kid-friendly and carnivore-friendly cuisine. So then why aren't more of us (myself included) transitioning our families to plant-based eating? In honor of Veganuary I bring you a conversation with PETA's Faith Robinson about why we should all take yet another look at our diets; she also offers her best tips for incrementally transitioning our families to plant-based eating. Here's a preview: [5:00] Are processed meat-free foods healthy? [9:00] Thoughts on the protein problem [10:00] Eating plant-based is one of the most environmentally friendly actions we can do and here's why [11:00] Capitalizing on our children's innate sense of compassion to ease the transition to plant-based [20:00] Don't reinvent the wheel! Incremental first steps for incorporating more plant-based meals   Resources mentioned: Want more episodes like this one? Check out #238: The Future Of Food.
