With contagious enthusiasm and a live cooking demo, she explains the benefits of expanding your palate to include "wild" foods that are delicious, nutritious and planet-friendly -- and gives three tips for helping others go from skeptical to confident in their own food adventures.

Alexis is the Ms. Frizzle if the plant world ❤
“We don’t get to choose the pace at which people change-if they choose to change at all, but… some people will be sweet and appreciate you for meeting them where they are.” 💝😭💖
Your body language brings back memories. When I was in school studying plant ecology, there was a kind of joke. We would sometimes have a mixture of plant people and bird people on a hike. The plant people would look at the ground and make all kinds of noise, while the bird people would be looking up at the trees and stomp all over the plants! 😅😅
Love her on TikTok! Love this tedtalk! Would LOOOOVVVEE to see her in the Food Network and/or National Geographic! Oohh a combo special with her and Tabitha Brown! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Yes!!
YESSS I AGREE
she is hosting the new botany series that crashcourse is doing
@@raidenyvelina8558 I was going to say the same thing! she's fantastic. Such infectious energy
I’m so happy to see Alexis up there doing her thing! Her content has really inspired me to get more into foraging and it’s really changed the way I view my town! Congratulations!
Alexis is soooo funny, completely fills the room with her personality.
This woman is incredible. Im a fan for life.
Her comedic, personal, and positive approach is definitely the way forward in promoting veganism
"happy snacking, don't die" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'm already obsessed with her but seeing her in a TED talk just made me so much more proud of her. I love you Alexis Nikole!!!
I loved this talk from start to finish, your humor is so special and is such a beautiful delivery for this sometimes intimidating world of veganism. Thank you and congratulations!!
Loved hearing the "happy snacking, don't die"
I used to work for the Forest Service as a botany tech. When I was in the field, I would often come across things I wanted to eat. (Eg. blueberries, Oxalis, or redbud.)
The plant world is happier and healthier with Alexis as one of their spokespeople!
She's a natural born educator and entertainer.
I think this is the most enjoyable presentation I’ve ever seen. I love this person.
Happy birthday Alexis!! Thank you for sharing all your knowledge with us! ❤️
wait is their birthday today?
@@ericsanimatedshorts340 yes it was her 30th birthday!
OMG Congrats to Alexis, this is incredible to see you on a TED talk stage!
The audience was eating her up from the beginning! (No pun intended)
Love her tik toks, personality, and admire her knowledge on foraging and plants! Soooo interesting!
A vegan once said to me that a person who sells meat is disgusting. I said “A person who sells fruit and vegetables is grocer”
Underrated comment googolplex/10

I feel like Alexis Nikole could deliver me the most unimaginably horrible tragic news, and it just wouldn’t sting as much coming from her. What an awesome person!
Well deserved!! She's an amazing speaker 🥰
" We don't get to choose the pace at which people change if they change at all"

I have texture issues when it comes to food but that doesn't mean I can't. There's still some wild foods I like and so many I havenèt had the chance to try yet.
Great to see you on TED!
I found you recently, and see we are in the same area.
I’m not a vegan, and likely will never be. However, I’m more than happy to try new veggies and I really want to expand my garden experience to include natives on the dinner plate.
I'm so proud of her omg
Happy birthday, Alexis!
