Miyoko Schinner is a wonderful woman. She also has her own UA-cam channel with cooking and nice recipes. ❤
Miyoko Schinner is such a rare human being who've been serving unconditionally human & nonhuman animals for 50+yrs. I wish I went vegan sooner, when I met a vegan for the first time 20yrs ago.
A truly genuine, selfless, beautiful human being. Love this woman.
Miyoko is one of my heroes! I would love to be at one of her dinner parties 🎉 💫🥰🌿
i am really proud of this lady, doing a lot to push veganism.
Why does veganism need to be pushed? It isn't anything other than a choice of what you want to eat, no one should be brow beaten to eat a certain way, it definitely shouldn't be pushed and it shouldn't be encouraged for children and young people due to nourishment and developmental problems.
Today's release, Miyoko Schinner. I had to re-watch this quick and it really hit some deep and beautiful emotions. Thank you so much Miyoko for taking time out to share so much with me and the growing VeganLinked community.
Special thanks to The Animal & Vegan Advocacy Summit for such amazing events that make for the most incredible opportunities in so many epic ways.
Thanks Plant Based News for sharing the space. It was fun helping out too.

Everyone should switch to her butter. It's delicious!
It's probably not available in Norway.
What is it made out of?
Oh my God it's so good. It's actually cultural! So delicious 😋
The dairy industry is insanely cruel.
Yeah I probably should pin Dairy is Scary to the top of this at some point
I so appreciated this interview and all that she does for veganism and animal protection.
Thank you, Miyoko! Some of us recently-converted vegans were inspired by your recipes and products, myself included.
*Create a Better 🌎 and a Better You by............Living Vegan* 💜
What a wonderful pioneer and trailblazer Miyoko is! This is an inspiring interview - thanks to you both.
This is so amazing!! I didn’t want it to end!! Miyoko, Thank you so much! 💚💚
Thanks so much, she was actually in a bit of a rush, so I was lucky to get this much time in with her :)
I admire you so much! And your products are always in our fridge. So absolutely delicious. One can taste the love and the compassion that inspired you to make them.
I love the idea of an alternative to 4H for children.
Me too - I was VERY happy to learn that this is one of Miyoko's projects.
No way.
How interesting. Great interview.
Thank you both...❤❤❤
Beautiful human being🥰 💚💚💚
Thank you! I'm recommending these books to my relatives, and to others.
Thank you Vegan Linked / Jeff for sharing with us. I have definitely taken notice of the change in "your" style of dialogue with your guests. It's certainly a much better experience watching / listening to your presentations. Now there's a very obvious mature sophistication in the way you present yourself.
Thanks so much for watching and sharing. Most of these are run and gun and I don't really know what I'm getting into. I wasn't planning on interviewing anyone in the beginning it just fell in my lap. + In the beginning I thought I was just going to be doing compilation so I didn't really think I needed to be in these at all. But I gradually worked myself in when I realized I needed to keep doing this, this way for now at least. This interview is actually a couple of years old. I just held on to it like many of the others I'm going to be releasing moving forward so that I can release it strategically based on what's coming next. A lot of times I'm in a rush doing these as well for various reasons usually outside of me. And doing this alone there's a lot to juggle, everything from scheduling, getting gear ready, traveling, setting up in the best location based on where they are at, being as accommodating as possible, making sure the audio, framing, exposure etc were all good while figuring out what I'm going to ask next while also listening, while also being extremely exhausted because I usually don't sleep when I do this, while also being an emotional wreck because something invariably happens to make things even more challenging, to be ecstatic the entire time until I have to come back home where I don't want to be ultimately, to then having to edit all of this which takes like three to five times as long as whatever I captured, And then finally rendering and uploading and packaging to schedule for publishing, then dealing with comments, then the website development which is even harder, I don't have much of a life anymore to be honest but I can't think of anything better to do with my life so I'm just rolling with it LOL. And to make it all astronomically insane, someone else can just stand in front of their phone and get a million subscribers rattling off whatever or zooming with someone. And they can produce like 30 videos and the amount of time it takes me to do one of these. But I just want to do the best I can so we put our best foot forward and showcase how awesome all this is and the most inspiring way that hopefully encourages others to tag along with us... Thanks for the feedback! I wish I had a team or at least one more person helping. I could do so much more which I just had somebody on the regular in the mix. Anyways back to the grind! Have a great day 🙂 💚
@VeganLinked thank you for your hard work Jeff. Your channel is a real gem to the vegan community ❤
@ VeganLinked ------- Thank You, Jeff.
Miyoko's Butter tastes more like butter than butter. I am beyond a fan of your brand. My story is much the same , vegetarian, then found out the darkness of dairy. Miyoko's makes many great products that I want to try, but budget allowing, I'm always going to sweet creamy Miyoko's butter. Thank you, Miyoko! Thank you so very much!
What a beautiful video. I would call it a masterpiece...of your genre.
Amazing woman and person! Thank you for this interview. Not only Japan, India too!!!! Hindus can only consume at most milk and that's it, everything else is plants. Jain in India are technically vegan as they do not consume dairy. Modern day like she says is broken.
That's right, that's what's up!
Love your butter Miyoko, but
I love you a lot more ❤
An amazing conversation with a powerfully inspirational woman. Well done!
Thank you so much for watching and commenting and the feedback 💚
Good interview, but I don’t think she is correct about the claim that Japan was a vegan country for 800 years. I just looked this up online, and the references I was able to find said that in the time period she is talking about, fish was still a part of their diet. Hence, they weren't even a vegetarian country.
I understand what you're saying. I think what she meant is that based on the information people had and their access to food this was the best they could do and the most vegan they could be. I think she was also saying they ate predominantly vegan, which really is a weird thing to say, more accurately they were plant based. But, the point is they were for the most part sustaining on plants. People may not have killed needlessly, that would be wasteful and it wasn't as easy to do, and of course they had to do it directly so it may have appeared more violent making it only something done out of necessity. And it is that presumed effort to only consume animals out of necessity that made them vegan forward at heart. And even the definition works with this. I like thinking of the past in this way because even vegetarians were trying to be vegan I think. I think they truly felt like they weren't hurting the animal just using their secretions. As for fish they may not have understood that fish are sentient. Some people don't even call fish meat. I've heard some call fish a vegetable.
Nonetheless you're correct but at the same time I feel like so is she. On the spectrum going from vegan to carnivore those she is referring to were far more vegan than carnivore. And it is a beautiful thing to frame things in this way.
It's also like when someone says everyone is vegan they're just brought up to be different, against their nature.
What people are doing now Is needlessly exploiting animals, harming them, and harming their self as well. In the past it was probably more out of necessity. People are so separated from the source now they're being conditioned over generations to becoming indifferent to exploitation and abuse and that is not vegan at all. The people she is referring to were not this way during the times she referring to. At least that's how I interpreted what she was saying...
also, if you look at a vegan today compared to someone eating fish to survive then, the vegan today is probably causing more harm accidently than a person occasionally eating a fish for a very small portion of their diet back then. The vegan today is still of course vegan. But, death is inevitable. Vegans have the smallest bloody footprint. But, I imagine the bloody footprint during the time she was talking about was probably smaller. The vegan today may inadvertently or indirectly killing animals via a wide range of lifestyle choices. 800 years from now someone is going to say we weren't vegan then because we drove cars, went on cruises, flew in planes, ate invasive resource heavy processed foods, used toilet paper and cleaning supplies, lived in invasive spaces beyond our needs, used devices and appliances that probably caused harm somewhere along the production chain, and so on. As vegans we do the best we can. Vegans kill, we just genuinely try not to as much as possible and as a result we kill significantly less and live more contiguous with our ethics doing as much as practicable.
@@VeganLinked She made this statement in the context of how she concluded that it is safe to live without consuming any animal products. Therefore, I think it is clear that she is simply not aware that the Japanese were still eating fish.
@@EugeneKhutoryansky Considering that she is from Japan and lived there and that is her culture I imagine she might know more about it than a mere Google search. Perhaps the amount of fish they were eating was not enough for her to come to the conclusion that it was necessary for their health. When I have looked into this before, It may not be as easy right now but 7 years ago I looked into this, There are public military records from when we Occupied Japan and documented their diets. It was predominantly things like sweet potatoes and straight up plant based to the point of only having about a very nominal single digit percent of animal. so perhaps it was not enough to come to the conclusion that it was necessary for health and therefore consistent with it being in the context of what she said...
@@EugeneKhutoryansky It's also worth mentioning that these are just her opinions off the cuff. Isn't some deep dive into facts based on extreme interpretations of absolute behaviors. She's just sharing her take on things and being where she comes from and all it's cool
Thank you! Vegan forever!!!
Inspiring lady!
I was surprised to find out Ninjas (Shinobi) were mostly vegans.
😂"Ninjas believed that eating meat caused a stench and that Buddhism also banned eating meat for much of their existence"
From barleyman to ninjas! That's what's up 🙂 Old school game changers !
@@VeganLinked Oh no, here it comes, the Ninja diet!
Looking forward to making some delish recipes from your channel. Love all Asian flavours. Have been a vegan for 5 months and are passionate and dedicated.
I need advice. Since becoming vegan, my feelings towards all the animals I don't eat has intensified to the stage of giving me constant grief ( do others feel this way?). I think about the billions that are slaughtered and their fear and we are never going to save them. Am I over thinking
It sounds like you have a heart. It doesn't seem like you're overthinking. You're keeping it real. And that's a beautiful thing. Funnel that into something creative or productive that might ultimately help the animals even if it only makes a small dent together we make a vegan world! There's so much you can do, it could just be cooking for friends and family, it could be starting a potluck, it could be helping an animal rights organization or even someone like me, whatever skills and interests you have couple that with your energy and funnel it into making a difference! 💚
You're not alone. I think of farmed and captive animals all the time especially when there is climate induced heat waves and flooding as these beings will suffer the most when people care about themselves. When there is any disease outbreaks, I feel disheartened that animals will be baked alive in ventilation shutdowns.
Great human being ♥️
i made pizza for the first time because of miyoko. even before i was vegan, i never made pizza or worked with bread dough. i first tried after seeing Miyoko make pizza on a facebook livestream back in 2016.
best vegan cheese and butter
Love Miyoko! What a great person! Regarding Okinawa, according to my Okinawan wife their diets are not great these days.
Yes, for a little too long now it's been infiltrated with Western culture influence
"Okinawan diet has westernized since the arrival of American military bases, and younger generations are no longer benefiting from the health benefits of the traditional diet. The diet has changed significantly over time," :(
@@VeganLinked They always eat a lot of pig & sugar from WAY before Western influences. Actually, it was a Chinese influence as they were closer to them.
I always eat alone. This inspires me to do something about that. Thank you!
I thought about this several times yesterday after rewatching this quick before publishing. I'm an extravert and hate working alone and doing basically everything alone. All these videos I do alone, working on the website, etc... overtime this becomes exhausting and depressing. As much as I hate driving, I really really really hate driving and staying wherever I can to make this happen, getting to finally be around like minded people really is therapeutic, until I have to go back home... Then it's an emotional downhill crash lol.
@VeganLinked After I watched the video and commented, I kept thinking about it. I was actually thinking about you and how you made all of this happen. Interviewing and meeting all these fascinating people who feel the same way you do. I'm impressed by what you've accomplished. I never thought you could be experiencing a similar feeling of aloneness as me at home. I'm sorry to hear that. As I go, I feel the need to be with like-minded people more and more. I need to do something about it. I hope I figure out a way. Thank you for helping to keep me connected, at least, to the world I belong in.
@@GreenVegan816 hey you should join my website. I don't know how useful it will be but it would be cool to see you on there. I'm still working on it and haven't launched it yet like officially but it's been totally functional and developing since 2017. I'm closer than ever to being comfortable enough with it to launch it officially in such a way that I talk about it more at least. And if you have time and interest maybe you can help me take it to another level 🙂
@@GreenVegan816 veganlinked.com is the site by the way...
@VeganLinked Wow, your website is amazing! I only looked at it briefly on my phone, but I will definitely look at it a lot closer tomorrow on my computer. Thanks for letting me know about it.
We all wish were stronger at points in our lives.
Remarkable woman.

I eat alone because my veganism has excluded me from my family 😅 Whenever I go to deal with family, I have to fend for myself because to them my dietary needs are a liability. So because of that I have to cook beforehand or find food in the area because the family doesn't have anything for me to eat 😒 This August will be 8 years vegan (:
I recently started making a post on this very thing. I wish I had it finished, it would be fun to share with you right now :)
@@VeganLinked because of where I live I don't have friends either (:
@@user-ry4qc5zx1e same here, i have to travel far to do these interviews
Here's that post I started to test blogging, a new feature on the site. i didn't proof it though lol: veganlinked.com/blog/dealing-with-family/
I could definitely add more to that post too. After I did it, when I thought about sharing it with you, I thought I of several other great examples from previous interviews. But, I can use those for later.

For anyone interested in the history of Japanese food culture & relationship with animals, I found this introduction in English; 'Henceforth fishermen and hunters are to be restrained: towards a political ecology of animal usage in premodern Japan' by Mark Hudson & Irene M. Muñoz Fernández, from Asian Archaeology Volume 7, pages 183-201, (2023).
There's also updates such as; 'Digesting modernity, healing with nature: The birth of a 'natural' food movement in Meiji Japan, 1905-1910' or 'Food as medicine: the cultural politics of "eating right" in modern japan, 1905-1945' both by Sookyeong Hong.
Given the timing of heer experiences on both the West Coast & in Japan, does anyone know if Miyoko had any interest in shokuyokai, aka Zen Macrobiotics?
Awesome can you elaborate on this more? I might even pin this post 🙂
Something I would like to pin to this. When people think about veganism prior to it being coined they can apply the vegan principles just as well. And that is to not exploit animals as much as practicable. Prior to veganism being coined the only way practicable it seemed based on the limited information and access to food was being vegetarian. Especially when this was intentional And on the premise of presumed necessity And on the assumption that the animal wasn't being hurt. That clearly is vegan intent And obvious sign that we have been moving forward in veganism that far back. Veganism was coined and developed during a time where food was in excess and exploitation has become vastly out of control to the point it's demonic. To be vegan in this Day and time is to take advantage of these times of access to information and food industry efficiency. Now more than ever we can be vegan to the extent of not eating animals at all And this is probably why the term was coined when it was. We needed a word for it more then and now within advent of all this increased accessibility. We needed it at this Crux of all this change to remind us of our true nature as we became more separated from the source, separated from the kill, desensitized from the process, and rendered oblivious to the unnecessary excess, violence, and invasive nature of exploiting animals. As vulnerable people habituate to this separation they are no longer considering their innate tendency toward empathy in making a decision because they are so separated and conditioned. So we need veganism to wake people up now in this time where people are veering away from it's incredible potential as humans evolve.
Unfortunately billions of people are eating mindlessly. They are not killing animals out of necessity. The industry has gotten out of hand. The cultural mores are vanishing. Veganism brings us back to Earth, it restores our humanity, it works to create the most non-violent lifestyle and future possible. People really always wanted this and we see reflections of this throughout history. But it wasn't until now that we needed to define this in the face of inadvertently losing our hearts most notably because of a careless industry and government + perpetuated by ignorance and indifferent. But the truth is often faced with resistance and opposition until it is finally accepted.
@@VeganLinked I may be able to do so later, as our conversation develops, however, might I recommend that you look out for Willam Shurtleff & Akiko Aoyagi of the SoyInfo Center in Oakland, CA? I don't know if they are actually vegan or not, but they deserve a credit for their epic work historically documenting 'A Comprehensive History of Soy'.
Soon because he's in his 80s now.
Miyoko is mentioned in it for her early work. I think I actually get a one line credit some where too. However, much more could be said that is in such a compendium.
@@VeganLinked Two of your posts went missing it seems. I just checked & found this, "William Shurtleff has been a vegetarian since 1968 and a vegan for most of this time." His work was HUGELY influential in the mid-period of the vegan movement, i.e. 70s & 80s. Without him/them, there wouldn't have been any Miyoko, Tofutti or Tofurkey etc.
He went from being a chef at the seminal Tassajara Zen Center, which published the famous 'The Tassajara Bread Book, to writing the "first three gospels of vegan cookery; 'The Book of Tofu' (1975), 'The Book of Miso' (1976), & The Book of Tempeh (1979).
They sold more than 830,000 vegan books & helped to start more than 450 new companies in the field.

precisely another reason why eating animals is not a personal choice and people have a moral obligation to stop eating animals
@@VeganLinked 👍💚🍀
To live we need to eat, that means something has to die for one to live. Both plants and animals live. The choice is which killing is better. The choice depends on ones understanding of life.
This is no excuse to needlessly inflict suffering. Did you use that same kind of logic with humans or just conveniently with your infantile habituations? How does a sane person apply your appeal to death fallacy and some sort of meaningful way?
I made this video for you called "vegans kill" ua-cam.com/video/Br2uwoDdEhs/v-deo.htmlsi=aqq55hSOrmV-czX1 a few years back in anticipation of dealing with the erroneous thinking that comes with trying to desperately justify needlessly abusing animals and ingesting their bodies.
@@VeganLinked I am sorry you found my comment offensive, I was born in a vegetarian family and when at University in the 80's I became a vegan and have been on wholefood plant based diet for over ten years. The content you produce is commendable.
I was once challenged by a colleague That I was a vegan because I did not like to kill, and he put to me that plants are also living, so my premises was wrong. It took me sometime to realise that indeed that something has to die for me to live. If I do not eat I will certainly perish. From this standpoint one has to make a choice , and I was hoping I would get some answers. Never mind a rebuke is ok...my choice for being plant based is simple, when I harvest a plant/fruit I can disperse the seed, take a cutting, etc and help in propagating that which died for me. Whereas, when I kill an animal I can do nothing for it, none of the animal remains can be used to propagate that being which died for me to live. Of course I do not have the high technology which claims to do that now, even so I am happy with my choice and live in harmony with nature. May you be happy.
@@harvinderubhi5540 You're not going to certainly perish eating legumes, greens, grains, fruits, veggies, mushrooms, nuts, seeds, herbs and spices. And by eating plants directly you're contributing to probably 20 times less death. So hopefully you didn't start eating animals to only kill animals intentionally on top of twentyfold more accidentally while also killing more humans as you increase the likelihood of deadly pathogens and zoonotic disease spreading. Not to mention the horrible violent jobs that you're paying people to have to do. Not to mention increasing your risk for chronic disease because you never learned how to eat properly.
Perhaps I just misunderstood you and thought you were equating animals to plants in such a way that you thought or are trying to express that killing a plant is the same as killing an animal. This kind of logic is what animal eaters use sometimes so it's hard to understand where you're going with this. Plants lack the anatomical and physiological characteristic of sentience. I feel like a lot of what you were saying later totally is in line with my understanding of life. Original post appeared sketchy. But the more I hear you the more I feel like I just misunderstood you. I guess I was thinking you were playing games with me or something Like so many animal eaters try to do.
SAFE??? It's not safe to consume other animal products
What
Who is consuming other animal products?
Europe used to have a majority vegan diet?? I don't think that's true
Before trying to formulate an opinion about whether or not something is vegan you might want to first figure out what it means. Vegan is not a diet philosophy. It just so happens to be that diet has the biggest impact. It is a philosophy to not exploit animals as much as practicable. In this day and time with unprecedented and unfettered access to information and food we now can be Vegan more than ever. But in the past veganism, while it was not coined yet, strides were being made in the form of being vegan forward in their efforts. What she is saying is people didn't needlessly exploit, abuse, and ingest animals body parts, organs and secretions like they do now at all. Their diets were overwhelmingly predominantly plant based.
"In Denmark, we're mainly talking about a diet without much meat. Only the richest nobles could afford to eat meat dishes every day, and for the vast majority of the population, meat-focused dishes was a luxury, largely reserved the major holidays, such as Christmas and Easter. The only widely available meat, was fish. Cabbage was so important in medieval Danish cuisine, that the oldest Danish word for garden is kålgård, meaning "cabbage plot." Peas were also extremely important to Danish cuisine, in multiple forms, but not the modern green ones, most people think of... Mainly the hard yellow and grey ones, that were dried and needed to be boiled or stewed for a long time to be edible.
Ofc. there was also things like bread and such.
Onion and garlic were known to be used as sources of flavour, since spices weren't a thing most people had access to.
Various fruits, apples and plums and such, were also popular, particularly the apple, with many of even the poorest farms having an apple tree."
"Cereals remained the most important staple during the Early Middle Ages as rice was introduced to Europe late, with the potato first used in the 16th century, and much later for the wider population. Barley, oats, and rye were eaten by the poor while wheat was generally more expensive" .
"Strawberries are actually native to Europe. The modern variaties are based on hybrids from South America. The native European species were edible though and were eaten. Many fruits were present in Europe. The Romans spread grapes and likely apples and pears. Brambles and raspberries, currants and many more are naturally found in European woods. Quinces, medlars etc. also grew. Many of these can be stored or dried quite well.
Cabbage, onions, peas and broadbeans, beets, many radish like plants, other greens, carrots and relatives of them are also all native and were eaten in some capacity. Many common garden weeds are native to Europe and edible. Dandelions, stinging nettles etc."
"There are tons of beans native to Eurasia. Peas (pisum sativum), chickpeas (cicer arietinum), broad bean (vicia faba), lentil (lens culinaris), lupin (lupinus albus). These are european/middle eastern/north african ones, and still eaten today. I am not counting plants from China.
Of course gruels from barley, oats, rye, emmer, millet, spelt were a staple food for poor people. Cereals provide carbs, beans provide proteins. For fats, flax, hemp, sesame, olive (whenever possible) was used.
And of course genus Brassica was widely used: not only cabbage, but also turnip (brassica rapa) and rutabaga (brassica napobrassica)."
"We know a lot about cuisines before that. People ate lots of bread and grain porridges and vegetables that people today have barely heard of, like turnips"
I'm plant based, not vegan yet, I just find it's very costly to buy everything vegan. Dairy products is something I love so much, yes I do enjoy some vegan none dairy products, the issue is I'm on a fixed income at this time so buying vegan products, is quite expensive you get a small 60z or 8oz bag for the same or more cost of dairy products. I'll be happy when vegan products cost less or at least the same amount as none vegan items with the same or greater quantity. It's sad in order to eat healthy you must spend so much more.
I am really confused by what you're saying. There is literally zero requirement to consume Dairy. And you do not need an alternative to Dairy at all. So if you're worried about cost then why are you buying dairy when you don't need it? Also, the healthiest foods on the planet are the least expensive. Those are legumes, greens, grains, fruits, veggies, mushrooms, nuts, seeds, herbs and spices. Many of these you can grow on your own, you can buy them in bulk dry or frozen, you can get them canned and that's more expensive but still super cheap, If broccoli is too expensive get broccoli seeds and do sprouts, things like red cabbage last a long time and are extremely healthy, the only reason why Dairy may seem affordable is because it's subsidized. But there's zero requirement for dairy. Drink water instead. Grow some herbs And make your own teas, that's extremely inexpensive and very enjoyable and far more healthier than bovine secretions. Miyoko's products are not a requirement to be vegan. They're just excessive really. And completely unnecessary. But they are definitely an appropriate alternative since I would rather spend a little more on something compassionate than spend less on something as violent and horrific as Dairy.
Here's a great 5-minute video you should watch: ua-cam.com/video/UcN7SGGoCNI/v-deo.htmlsi=7tpysAgCjEoguoEL
It sounds more like you're vegetarian not plant-based. Typically plant-based is synonymous with vegan. And if someone says they're not vegan but plant-based then that probably means they are indifferent to veganism but eat this way for health. And I don't know why anybody would want to hurt animals in other ways but anyway.
@@VeganLinked
I will check out the video, and with so many different concepts of vegan, vegetarian and many others. I'm not vegan and most likely could never be, truly. I care for a few pets. Most are carnivores, I cannot deprived them of their dietary needs, that would be animal cruelty. I eat what I eat not because of any one thing in particular, but I also have a family to support and I will buy what my money can afford to and things we enjoy eating. I and I dare say any is going to buy and force themselves to eat what they don't like. Thank for sending the video.
@@lenorawilson2326 What are you talking about you have pets and don't want to deprive them? One of the oldest living healthiest dogs was bramble and he was vegan. The interview I released 3 weeks ago, that lady's dog is like 23 years old And vegan. A true carnivore is a cat for example. Yes they require an exogenous source of taurine. But this does not mean you need to eat animals. You can be anything you want to be if you really want to be and actually care.
@@lenorawilson2326 I understand it's hard to deal with family. As a man I had to put my foot down with my son but he was only like seven so that was easy LOL. Fortunately my wife went vegan with me at the same time in 2011. But I was already vegan Ford prior to that since the early '90s. But yeah it can be a little challenging to do what's right when others are doing what's wrong. But that doesn't mean give up and do what's wrong and not stand for what's right.
I have a strong suspicion this woman is eating sashimi when no one is looking
Why would you be such a clown? Nobody here cares about your sadistic humor
Japanese have eaten fish since time immemorial, wth is this woman talking about
What the hell are you talking about? Did she say they did not eat fish?
@@VeganLinked ...ummm, if I understand the definition of 'vegan' as someone that doesn't eat animals, and a fish is an animal, then that is exactly what she is saying 1:40 - it's also written in your thumbnail, something about 'thousand years vegan' - so dishonest.
@@dbabini1 there's apparently your understanding and then there's the definition. You can actually look it up. Perhaps you should try.
@@dbabini1 The vegan strives to avoid animal exploitation as far as practicable. Those people were respecting animals as much as they knew how and could at that time trying to do the best they knew how based on what information they had and what food they had access to. Now we have unprecedented access to information in case you didn't notice. And we have a more efficient food supply than ever. And it is more important now than ever for us to take advantage of plant agriculture's incredible potential and get away from how devastating eating animals is and horrific and violent. It's a shame I should have to point all these things out in 2024. But I understand that people are busy and don't have time to figure things out. But you can find research on things like opportunity costs and see that plant agriculture's food loss alone could feed up to 20 fold more people. Couple that with plant agriculture being at least 14 times more productive. And with animal agriculture using 80% of agricultural land while only producing 17% global Food intake. Then factor in the fact that you don't even need to be eating these animals So the astronomical footprint that creates the most violent jobs and is toxic to surrounding communities, leading cause of deforestation, desertification, aquatic dead zones, species Extinction, antibiotic resistant bacteria, deadly pathogens and zoonotic diseases, like every way you look at eating animals renders bad results, and according to the totality of evidence it increases your risk for chronic disease and all cause mortality on top of it all.
@@dbabini1 when everything from the Daniel diet to barleyman to ninjas Hindus and Buddhist and Jain And even Pythagoras we see throughout history people making significant strides towards veganism. It's evolution essentially, progress, things don't happen backwards. We go from our violent past in every way you can imagine toward trying to be as humane as possible which is the most human thing to do.
“Why someone needs to be killed for your food”. How do you figure that nothing has been killed or tortured for your food now?
I'm not sure but I think what you're trying to say is that animals need to die for vegan's food. Well I did a video on this several years ago, it sounds like you need to watch it to catch up, it's called vegans kill ua-cam.com/video/Br2uwoDdEhs/v-deo.html
In short animal agriculture results in more animals intentionally being killed than accidental deaths from plant agriculture. Not just more, astronomically more! And animal agriculture only results in 20% global Food intake. Yet plant agriculture results in 80% global food intake with less accidental death than the intentional death from animal agriculture. Plus animal agriculture also has more accidental death since it takes more animals than there are people to feed people those animals, like 20 times at least more animals. So that's 20 times more crop deaths in addition to intentional deaths. That's how gravely inefficient and unsustainable eating animals is.
You might want to look into trophic levels to see how energy is lost further up the food chain. This is probably the main reason why eating animals will never be as efficient or sustainable or even healthy.
But if you go to a veganic farm like I have been to several, I've even got them on video, it's easy to see that no animals are being killed. Go to a slaughterhouse though and all day long thousands are being killed, 200 million globally every single day are being slaughtered. Meanwhile plant agriculture has enough opportunity cost and waste alone to feed 20-fold more people. So instead of eating animals you could be eating plants and not even increasing demand and have a net death print of zero essentially because plants are so fruitful and already overproduced.
No animals are not tortured for plants this is torture though for animals and this is just for dairy. You should watch this 5-minute video. You'll see why it has over 6 million views ua-cam.com/video/UcN7SGGoCNI/v-deo.htmlsi=L4ivqZlml8HPhOH6
All those products are super highly processed, ergo unnatural and super unhealthy
Your phone is unnatural and highly processed but you're still using it....
If a comet was coming toward Earth that would be natural. Would you be against us unnaturally derailing it of course?
Cheese is unhealthy and processed. So this is just a cruelty free alternative. Do you prefer the cruelty version?
Typically we recommend legumes, greens, grains, fruits, veggies, mushrooms, nuts, seeds, herbs and spices And a variety of each. But if somebody wants to have something different than they have this cruelty free option. Now don't get me wrong, I think the most vegan thing to eat are whole plant foods. But this is still obviously completely vegan enough and if anything super vegan because it helps non-vegans do something cruelty free. But ideally people would eventually move toward whole plant foods that don't require packaging, processing, etc that can be invasive to the environment, ultimately make someone sick if they are consuming too much of it, and so on but most vegans I know like myself use products like these sparingly.
