Introduction

Hi, I have been a vegan for 5 years, vegetarian for several decades. Work for an animal protection organization. Live in the U.S. but visit London on a regular basis.

What's your state of veganness (i.e. how vegan are you)?

Level 4+ I check ingredients at supermarkets and restaurants and turn down offered food that I am unsure about, but realize that I am probably not 100% effective in avoiding consuming animal products. Wear, but don't buy non-vegan clothes.

Favourite foods?

Indian food; anything with aubergines, mushrooms or artichokes; sweets; baked goods; and chocolate.

Favourite London restaurants?

Saravaan Bhavan in East Ham

What is the most common or silliest thing people ask you about not eating meat?

"You vegans don't eat enough" -- obviously from someone who had never attended a vegan potluck :)

What do you hope to get by coming to meetups?

Meeting people who live their values.

  • Hi Jo,

    Great to see you added to the attendees for the Amitav Ghosh, The Glass Palace - Asian authors meet up group.

    We changed the date of the meetup about 6 weeks ago but some of the attendees didn't receive the message.

    Please check you have the date as Sunday, May 19 at 2:45 PM in The Heights Bar.

  • Correction, it wasn't the *last* time , but it has been a looong time since I've been to the group... Also please excuse my pet peeve typo of "your" and not "you're" :)

  • Jo, so glad your going tonight... Last time I saw you we read Brooklyn by Colm Toibin we were the only 2 that were dissatisfied, you saying you knew nothing about the characters, the total opposite of this one! Cant wait for tonight's discussion. Hope you are well!
