Trader Joe’s Hawaiian-inspired mochi cake mix – Gluten-Free, 99% Vegan
Saw this Trader Joe’s Hawaiian-inspired mochi cake mix the other day … it’s Gluten-Free and 99% Vegan. Looks delicious! I love cake mixes, and I would make it with Just Egg.

Type 2 Diabetes isn’t prevented or cured by a vegan diet!
Hello world, I’ve been following a 99% to 100% vegan diet for almost 20 years, and it is not preventing Type 2 diabetes for me.

Protein shakes at the Climbing Gym
The other Touchstone climbing gyms I’ve seen in the San Francisco Bay Area don’t offer any protein shakes for sale, but GWPC in Oakland does. Previously they only had the REBBL shake which is vegan, but it’s a bit annoying to me as it has MCT and 6 grams of saturated fat. From memory, I... Continue Reading →
My weekday soy kefir smoothie, and ideas about reducing waste without going zero-waste
My ingredients for smoothies. The soy kefir separates once cultured so I just give it a quick swish. If my lettuce is washed and chopped, I'll likely use it. Perhaps pre-washed/chopped lettuce is convenient for you? No shame in that! I think this was jarred pasta sauce but what a great jar it is! I... Continue Reading →
