World Vegetarian Day

Explore the vegetarian cuisine for a day, and see if this lifestyle could help you improve your health, happiness, and the environment all at once.

Every year there are thousands of people making the move to a healthier, more socially responsible way of living. These people care about the lives of animals and want cruelty to come to an end, they want to live long healthy lives and avoid the perils of heart disease, and they want to have beautiful bodies sustained by living in tune with the Earth. Who are these people? They’re vegetarians, and World Vegetarian Day celebrates their decision to eliminate meat and animal products from their diet and live a more conscientious life.

Learn about World Vegetarian Day

Did you know that roughly every one in ten people around the world is a vegetarian? That figure often shocks people. It’s more than you would probably expect, right? A lot of people are also surprised to learn the fact that India is the country that has the lowest meat consumption per capita around the globe.

On World Vegetarian Day, we celebrate all of the good things that are associated with being a vegetarian. It is a good day to show people that you can still enjoy eating food by going meat-free! It is not boring, and there are some amazing recipes out there.

Even if you are not a vegetarian yourself, you can celebrate World Vegetarian Day. Why not go vegetarian for this day and see how you manage? From veggie burgers and cheese pizza to tofu and carrot sticks; there are a lot of amazing meat-free delights that you can enjoy on this day. Plus, you never know, it may inspire you to have more meat-free days in the future.

There are a number of different benefits that are associated with going meat-free. Firstly, you have the benefits for your body. Vegetarian diets tend to involve consuming a lot of the good stuff that you cannot typically find in meat. This includes a large number of phytochemicals, unsaturated fat, magnesium, vitamins E and C, folic acid, and fiber. This translates into a healthier weight, lower blood pressure, reduced risk of heart disease, and also lower cholesterol.

If that was not enough, going veggie also offers a number of different benefits in terms of the environment. Not only does this spare animals, but it conserves fossil fuel too. For example, one calorie of beef requires 78 calories of fossil fuel! This is something that a lot of people don’t realize. For soybeans, only one calorie of fossil fuel is needed for one calorie of beef. This means that it is 780 percent more efficient when compared to the production of meat.

History of World Vegetarian Day

World Vegetarian Day was established by the North American Vegetarian Society (NAVS) in 1977 to help promote the vegetarian way of life, and educate people on the health and social benefits of making the move to eliminate meat from their diets. As omnivores, humans are capable of surviving in complete health on a diet that contains no animal meat or products of any kind, but are there other benefits than merely a clean conscience?

As it turns out, the answer is an unequivocal yes. Vegetarian diets are significantly more healthy than diets that contain animal products, especially when you are conscientious about your fat intake. With a low-fat vegetarian diet you can completely avoid any issues with cardiovascular disease, the leading cause of death in the United States alone.

Not only do vegetarian diet remove animal fat and cholesterol from their diets (especially true for vegans), but they consume more fiber and anti-oxidants, well known for their ability to fight cancer! So profound is the effect of vegetarianism on our health it has statistically been shown to add 13 healthy years to our lives.

Need more proof? Just look at Okinawa, where the people with the longest life-span in the world live. Guess what their diet primarily consists of?

How to celebrate World Vegetarian Day

Even if you have no desire to live a Vegetarian lifestyle every day, give yourself a chance to explore the world that is vegetarian cuisine on World Vegetarian Day. Explore the health benefits and find out how delicious and healthy eating no animal products can be by eliminating them from your diet for just one day.

It can even give you an opportunity to try out new restaurants and dishes, just stop in at your local vegetarian restaurant or order off the vegetarian menu at your favorite restaurant. Recruit some friends to go with you and have a wonderful night out, without hurting any animals!

There are a number of other ways that you can celebrate World Vegetarian Day as well. Aside from opting for a meat-free day, you can also enrich your knowledge and/or share your knowledge about the benefits of being a vegetarian online. Educate your friends, followers, and family members about the advantages of going vegetarian. You will find a lot of resources online about this. Especially on World Vegetarian Day, there are going to be a lot of infographics, videos, and other pieces of content that are going to be going around, so why not share these with people you connect with online so that you can be part of this movement?

Truffle Sweet Potato Fries

[buffetlicious]

KFC Parmesan Truffle Chicken is back again this Christmas season, so I went and ate it. Hot & Crispy Chicken is drizzled with truffle-infused sauce and sprinkled generously with grated parmesan cheese. Available from 23 November 2022 till 3 January 2023 for a limited period only.

Got the Parmesan Truffle Meal (S$9.55) with two pieces chicken, two regular sides of whipped potato and coleslaw plus a drink. Is it me or has all the chickens used by fast food restaurants shrunk? Anyway, the taste of truffle is pronounced in every bite and the chicken is tender and juicy. No sure if it is the liberal sprinkling of the powdered cheese, the overall taste is on the salty side, though I love the truffle and cheese combination.

On My Plate: 

1. Patate Rossini (Potato Crips, Truffle Oil, Parmegiano Reggiano) 🍟

2. Burrata Pizza (Tomatoes, Burrata, Garlic Confit) 🍕

.

Notes: 

My first outdoor meal of 2023 was at CinCin, an Italian restaurant whose Burrata pizza is to LIVE for (why die if you can eat well, right?)

I am always apprehensive when I hear ‘truffle’, but these potato fries were gorgeous. Plump, juicy, piping hot, the truffle oil was just the right amount. That house dipping sauce was spectacular (all things fiery and fine). 

With a beautiful, windy outdoor sitting, accompanied by a hell lot of mosquitoes, the Burrata pizza was as sensational as I first remember eating it.

Where: CinCin, Mumbai

When: 8th January, 2023

Also I just had the BEST fried egg. I put Parmesan on it and had it over a serving of garlic quinoa and it was so tasty and probably the best thing I’ve ever eaten

National Cheese Day

June 4 is National Cheese Day. Not to be confused with other popular cheese related holidays like grilled cheese day, cheesecake day, or mac and cheese day. This day is in reverence of the queen of all dairy, the big cheese.

When is National Cheese Day 2024?

Cheese and its many varieties are celebrated on National Cheese Day on June 4.

History of National Cheese Day

Cheese making is an ancient, some might even say sacred, craft. So ancient in fact it predates recorded history. It is speculated that the magic of cheese making began somewhere around 8000BCE shortly after the domestication of animals. Archeological digs have found evidence of cheese around the world including strainers coated in milk-fat molecules in Kuyavia, Poland dated around 5500BCE, murals in Egypt dated at 2000BCE, and an artifact of preserved cheese in Xinjiang, China believed to be more than 3,000 years old! European Imperialism took their styles of cheese through Asia, sub saharan Africa, and eventually to the Americas.

The most popular cheese of all is (obviously) mozzarella. This delicious and pizza topping cheese was first created near Naples from the rich milk of water buffalos. At the time, it rarely left its home near Naples, as it was made from pasteurized milk, and a lack of refrigeration meant it had a very short shelf life. As both cheese technology and refrigeration systems advanced, this delicious cheese left the southern region of Italy and found itself traveling around the world.

There are two types of mozzarella produced within the United States — low moisture and high moisture. Low moisture mozzarella has a moisture content less than 50% while high moisture has a content of over 52%. Low moisture is made specifically for transportation and mass production as the lack of moisture gives it a longer shelf life.

Today, cheese dishes can be found on every continent served savory, sweet, melted, deep fried, and even chilled in ice cream. This household staple can still satisfy any craving after thousands of years.

5 FACTS ABOUT CHEESE THAT WILL BLOW YOUR MIND

It’s vegan!

Americans cut the cheese

Don’t forget the stomach

Medieval curds

Cheesy Moon

Okay, not really, but dairy free cheese is definitely having a renaissance. Food experimentation has come a long way in recent decades offering up many plant based cheese alternatives you can find at major grocery retailers or your local vegan butcher shop (if you’re lucky enough to have one).

Contrary to popular assumption the U.S., not Europe, is the biggest producer of cheese, making up 29% of the global market. In order the top producing countries are the United States, Germany, France, and Italy.

Rennet is curdled milk and complex enzymes found in the fourth stomach of unweaned calves and is often added in the cheese making process, as it is considered to make a bolder, richer quality product.

The most popular types of cheeses of today like gouda, cheddar, parmesan, and camembert, all came in vogue during or after the Middle Ages.

The long standing myth that the moon is made out of cheese may stem from “The Proverbs of John Heywood” back in 1546 which stated "the moon is made of a green cheese." We now understand this to be more metaphor than literal, with “green” referring to the freshness or un-aged nature of the moon.

Delicious and nourishing goodness at Nono’s Comfort Kitchen, S Maison

Sometimes, we just need a little bit of comfort every once in a while, more so, I think, on weekends. It can be because we’ve had a terrible week, or we’re feeling some trepidation for the one that’s ahead of us. Whatever the reason, we can’t begrudge ourselves a little bit of indulging comfort to either soothe our nerves or to bolster them. Especially, if that comfort comes in such a delicious…

[thebearer]

the girls definitely inspired some sort of kids menu

yes. and a real kids menu. even tho carmen thinks he knows what kids eat... he does not know what kids eat until he has them lol.

he probably already had one, but after the girls it gets embellished. and by that i mean, simplified. he was trying to make very gourmet chicken tenders and truffle fries for children and then he had his own and... yeah no lol.

mac and cheese. chicken nuggets. grilled cheese- with regular cheese "none of that fancy shit, cousin, you saw how teddy threw it up."

they're definitely the taste testers for all of it too. if it passes the "teddy test" then it's good lol.

[used-to-have-abs]

When I tell you guys this gut is packed to the brim, I mean it 😩 I’ve literally been eating all day. I had a double bacon cheese burger for breakfast with large fries and a soda, gelato not even an hour after. I got invited to eat an hour after that and I wasn’t gonna eat a lot but I just couldn’t help myself 🥵 the food was just so good, chicken tenders and fries with a side of truffle Mac and cheese and I ended it with a chocolate bread pudding with ice cream.
