Vegan is a hot topic lately. A few weeks ago Oprah did a “try vegan” show. And just today, Kathy Freston was on the Ellen Show chatting about how her vegan lifestyle has changed her life. And next week Martha Stewart is doing a ‘vegan’ show. The trend is hot!..

And it’s easier than ever to try a vegan diet. There are shelves of vegan products at Whole Foods that are sure to satisfy every craving you may have! Vegan sausages, vegan pizza, vegan cheese, vegan mayo, vegan yogurt, vegan ice cream and on and on. I’ve personally been vegan for about eight years now and I couldn’t imagine ever wanting to eat any other way. Here is my Go Vegan Guide with tip and recipes!..
