Food for Thought with Colleen Patrick-Goudreau ·

2023/12/22

In this end-of-year episode, I reflect on how much easier it would be to not care — to choose convenience over compassion, to get what we want when we want it without having to think about the effects of our choices. I also share why I continue to make the choices I do, 24 years later. —————— Support this podcast today at JoyfulVegan.com/Donate Visit my website: JoyfulVegan.com Join me on an all-inclusive vegan trip: JoyfulVeganTrips.com AFFILIATE PARTNERS: Nama Juicer — Use this link and coupon

Forbidden Meat: Fasting and Abstinence During Advent...

Food for Thought with Colleen Patrick-Goudreau ·

2023/12/08

Abstaining from meat, dairy, and eggs during religious holidays has been a tradition for centuries in many religions. In Christianity, for example, during Lent (40 days prior to Easter) and Advent (40 days prior to Christmas), Christans were once forbidden to consume ANY animal flesh as well as as dairy, cheese, and eggs. In today's episode, we explore this history and demonstrate that not eating animal products was more common than not, especially during the period of contemplation and contrition

Food for Thought with Colleen Patrick-Goudreau ·

2023/12/01

On the one hand, "Jewish cuisine" or "Jewish food" is difficult to define, because it is influenced by the foods in the many countries where Jews have emigrated to, and it's as diverse and adaptive as the Jewish people themselves. On the other hand, there is indeed something we can call "Jewish food," characterized by a rich tapestry of flavors, ingredients, and cooking techniques, and influenced by the dietary laws and culinary traditions found in Jewish religious texts.

2,500 Years Vegan: An Ancient Call to Compassion

Food for Thought with Colleen Patrick-Goudreau ·

2023/11/24

Many people think of “veganism” as a new reactionary trend against what we call factory farming, but for centuries, men and women have been thinking about, writing about, and expressing distress over the violence inherent in killing animals for human use and consumption. My personal veganism is part of a long continuum of men and women – from ancient times until today – who stopped eating animals (and their eggs and milk) not because they witnessed a modern, mechanized, industrialized factory system

Black Cats and Halloween: The History Behind the...

Food for Thought with Colleen Patrick-Goudreau ·

2023/11/01

Why are certain animals synonymous with Halloween — bats, rats, owls, spiders, ravens, crows, toads, wolves, and...black cats? Why are black cats associated with witches? Did Pope Gregory IX issue a papal bull during the 13th century that called for the mass extermination of black cats? What’s the history behind all of this, and what does it mean for us (and the animals) today?

Cows have to be milked, or they would get sick and die

Food for Thought with Colleen Patrick-Goudreau ·

2023/09/27

When the udders of cows become filled with milk, the natural response is to express the milk, which the offspring would take care of in nature by nursing. If this milk is not expressed, then the udders may become engorged, they may swell, and they may throb. All that is true. Here's what's not true. —————— Support this podcast today at JoyfulVegan.com/Donate Visit my website: JoyfulVegan.com Join me on an all-inclusive vegan trip: JoyfulVeganTrips.com AFFILIATE PARTNERS: Nama Juicer — Use this
