Hey – great recipe round-up and I’m really excited to make some of these. But…you do realize that feta is cheese and therefore not vegan, right?

Vegan diets are HUGE right now. I’m not vegan but I just posted a Vegan German Chocolate Cake Recipe on my site yesterday: http://mominthecity.com/wp/vegan-german-chocolate-cake-recipe-courtesy-of-alices-tea-cup/

What about vitamin b12 deficiency? Aren’t vegans at a high risk of getting anemic? The vegan diet is missing foods which are richest in vitamin b12, which is necessary for neurological and metabolic functioning?
