- Опубліковано 9 бер 2024
- It’s often seems plant based living is a new thing, but here in Jamaica Rastafarians have been eating plant based since for ever, they call it ital. which is derived from the word vital. It was an honour to cook with my friend @chefvitaja this delicious ital stew down by the river in Jamaica.

Brother for life 🇯🇲❤️🏴
What we need is a redo with Chef Vita in Wales. Would love to see that. This was a great video!
you are amazing! love your vibes. thanks for the inspiration!
Seeing you two cook together was just - wow! Emotional. Good to see global brotherly love.
Your cooking looks amazing. I luv my mums home country ❤
I’ve never understood why the western world acts as if things only come into existence when “they” discover it..
People have been living off of plant-based diets for a very long time in many different cultures across the globe. 🙄
Thank goodness for channels like this spreading truth and creating a platform for people of all different backgrounds to share their stories👌
😂 they gotta put their flag in it for it to exist lol
Typical colonizer mentality
Veganism and vegetarians are just now being accepted on a big scale in the USA. I have been vegetarian for 40 years, and back then, people acted like you were a lunatic for not eating a meat based diet. Atleast things here are changing. But yes Indians and others have accepted a vegan and vegetarian diet for many many many many generations
@@marirosahofmann4634please do not put vegans in the same category as vegetarians
We are NOT IN ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM THE SAME
VEGANS DO NOT CONTRIBUTE TO MURDER OF BEAUTIFUL SENTIENT BEINGS
VEGETARIANS DO CONTRIBUTE TO THE SLAUGHTER AND MURDER OF BEAUTIFUL SENTIENT BEINGS
THANK YOU
LIVE 🌱 VEGAN

I love the explenation of Chef Vita about being self suficient giving us power against the system , and our freedom, and the food that he makes looks so good .
I was eating vegetarian and occasionally vegan more than 30 years ago. Now eating plant-based the last 6 years.
@@dee-dees.3635 No he ate plants and animal products, except meat, for over 30 years. Now he's 100% plant-based.
God bless I’m happy to hear that 🙏🏽🙌🏽💪🏽

_books flights to Jamaica_
Hurry up 😊
Wow! Ital is vital. Thank you for restoring my love for veganism Gaz 🙌🏽 🌱
Vegan for four years now. Feeling so much better! Best Jamaican episode so far! ❤
Congratulations!!!
I wish @chefvitaja was coming back to Wales with Gaz to open a fushion Wales/Jamaican food show!!. What a GREAT series @gaz!! @Tom !! 👏🏽💞
He’ll come soon for sure
Glad the comments are back on. Ever since the first episode I wanted to say that I absolutely love your newer content. I can't wait to see more of you travelling and discovering new foods around the world. It's such a high quality production, that it could air on BBC.
Love your content, keep on and stay strong mate.
Edit: Forgot to say that your "garden to table" content and way of life are really inspiring me, and I aspire to go down a similar path in life.
Do you by any chance know what made him deactivate all comments on Jamaican videos, even on other social media?
@@denzeruouji542In another comment he mentioned that it was because of his mental health. I don't know more than that
Gaz looks like he's wearing clarks on his foot lol he came prepared 😂 you no us jamaicans love some clarks
That meal looks magnificent 👌I am 65 and I've been eating vegetarian for 5 years, I feel stronger and more energetic, now I'm starting to eat vegan. Thank you for sharing your video and experience.
I'm Belize we don't add water, we add the coconut water back to the shredded coconut then squeeze. Only add water if you need more liquid but the coconut water is highly preferred.
Yea, I almost cried when they spilled the coconut water!
Yes, I think Gaz was also taken aback by the loss of the coconut water!
you have such a beautiful energy and the places you go, the people you meet and how you interact with each other shows so much admiration and love. i can’t get enough of your videos and this series from Jamaica is my new favorite thing to watch
Thank you so much!!
@@gazoakleychefthank YOU!!!
Imagine if you moved to a warmer climate like Jamaica and the food forest/water/mountains you would live in! That would be amazing!
✨️🙏✨️
These videos are great Gaz. Those of us who converted, have been vegan for years and who intend to be vegan for life can sometimes lose that fervor we had when we started. It just becomes a normal life. But every day I try to take a second to be grateful to live in a time and place of abundance to be granted the chance to make a compassionate choice. Never forget just how much power, vitality, and compassion we are given from the Earth.
not only have there been explicitly vegan cultures & people throughout history, but prior to industrialization near-every meal was incidentally plant-based as frequent meat-eating was impossible for all but the ruling rich. lots of rich cultural plant-based food traditions exist as a result!
excited to see these delicious jamaican dishes 👀
Can you give an example of an explicitly vegan people prior to the 20th century? I don't know any but I would be fascinated to
@@MrLoknarnot necessarily explicitly vegan, meat was just a rarity or only eaten on special occasions
❤❤❤❤. Love and only love. Thank you for always sharing the best way to acquire health🙂. Welcome to my home.
I love this guy. This is the reason I follow him because he’s so down to earth and now I see him in my homeland makes me love him even more.❤
Really loving these videos in Jamaica, looks like paradise. Thank you.
I have never seen anything more mouth watering in my life
Everything about this video is just magical 🎉🎉🎉
Donald Watson coined the word vegan in 1944. Archaeologist say plant based diets go back to prehistoric times, I wonder if they knew about B12.
Fully and successfully plant-based wasn't possible, but there were mostly plant-based people of course, as well as individuals who tried and failed in the early 20th century for example.
Prehistoric vegans also consumed insects and soil where B12 has been manufactured by the bacteria residing there. Maybe we're too clean, or chemicals have destroyed soil bacteria, or we don't consume enough raw produce grown in healthy, living soil. No plant or animal manufactures B12, only bacteria do.
God prescribed the Plant based vegan diet in the Garden of Eden 7,000 years ago and the ppl were strong vibrant and never sick, lived to 900 + years until after The Great Flood they had to eat flesh foods and the age went down from 900+ years to 80 years if lucky.
Obviously not. They got it though, from soil and other incidental ingestion, not from eating animals.
is it true that b12 is actually an airborne bacteria ???
The concept of 'I-Tal' -the'I'-represents the higher states of Consciousness and its inextricable connection to the 'I'nI, viz., We ... Ubuntu-therefore, the etymological arrangement of 'I-Tal' was FIRST conceptualized by the early Rastafari and inextricably linked to the term 'Natural' -organic. Vital was the secondary attachment of the idea and practice!
So good to know, thanks!
Will you list a recipe and instructions please i so want to try it
Vita is a cool bro who knows whats good! Jamaica is legendary!
I love this content - it is not just food but a spiritual journey connected back to the earth ❤🇯🇲
man I love this chef Vitaja is amazing! I got emotional listening to him speak about the lifestyle and the meaning of connection, I'm in America and I think about how the system has trapped so many people and mostly the new generation of kids are not learning this. Its heartbreaking they have no idea what this connection feels like. I feel having this knowledge is like finding a treasure.. the right thing to do is share it with others, so thank you both for sharing your life with us. Its keeps me inspired to do my part the best way I can.
My grandfather had a grater that looked like that that was used for processing sweet corn. Great series Gaz.
Bless up Vita, hope all is well! Great to see Shanti Man in the last episode. Vital Cuisine in Standpipe and Cheffingdon in Constant Spring and New Leaf in Lane Plaza also great places to go in Kingston. Calabash restaurant and Mi Hungry in Ochi. Vita representing!
My uncle has an avocado tree and mango trees in his back garden. I think he is rich beyond measure. Great episode. Really enjoyed this series.
What a wonderful series. Been vegan for 5 years and seeing such a positive connection to food and the nature around you was fantastic to watch. Go Gaz!

This video speaks to my soul on a deep level. Massive appreciation to you Gaz and Chef Vitaja.
Before spanish came to America the diet was mostly plant base ,in México and South América for example the quinoa, chia seeds,amaranto seeds,flaxseeds, corn, beens,etc were the most esting foods with a los of vegetables, there were no cows, pigs, chickens, cheeps, spanish bring with them these animals and in theie law was not aloud for indigenus people to eat "their food ".
Omg I'm here for a premiere😂
Same
Favourite video yet! What a magical conversation from you both, that connection back to the earth and each other 🙏🏻 so lovely to see people come together and share their passion in a world where everyone is in a rush to the supermarket all the time! Just got an allotment myself and was feeling a little overwhelmed, but you've both just given me the motivation I need, thank you 🙏🏻🙏🏻💫💫

Astonishing!!!!!! Thank you so much for the inspiration
Loving all your episodes Gaz. What a fantastic place you are enjoying with good company, good food & the beauty of the land. Amazing. I went vegetarian in 2003 and vegan shortly after except for a few occasions when I had eggs. I had read an eBook called "Diet liberation " which talked about the ethical, health & spiritual side of veganism.
Love & blessings to you & all.

Thank you for sharing your experience in Jamaica. What a beautiful paradise! The food looks amazing.
Such a great energy! This place looks like paradise and the food must be super delicious. Love❤
Thank you so much Gaz for bringing this rich cultural heritage to us, amazing.
this is amazing content, we love it!! thank you and your great team for these masterpieces!
So beautiful and delicious that food and powerful message and history. All those perennial trees avocado, mango, banana, coco, almond trees for past, present and future generations to enjoy. “Power and connection”
My grandma was born in 1900 and she was a vegetarian. My father still born in 1933 he is a vegetarian……and through the generations too my daughters the last born in 2005 are vegetarians. All the generations mine yours into home grown, natural nature based food and medicine. Respecting mother nature….and the health of the soil. It feels so good being a vegetarian. Especially not being any part causing suffering to sentient livestock.
Nice one Gaz, I'm loving the Jamaica series!
What a beautiful setting. I love visiting there but have never had such a wonderful experience as cooking at the edge of a river. How wonderful.
Awesome series Gaz and Chef Vitaja! ❤ cannot wait to visit Jamaica 🇯🇲 ❤
I love these series and am always looking forward to the next episode! In every episode there is something new to discover and it really inspires me to travel to Jamaica at some time! Thank you Gaz for the amazing content!
