This group was started to find vegans and vegan wannabes in the Hudson Valley. We combine Social Events and Social Action by enjoying delicious, healthful vegan food and encouraging others to do so. The more people who choose vegan food, the fewer farmed animals will be raised. You do not have to be vegan to join, just eat like one when you are with us. We get together to learn and to inform others.

I have decided to start this class so I could show you how to make delicious food that is healthy to eat. Consider joining if you would like to eat healthier, lose weight, prevent or reverse heart disease, prevent or reverse Type II diabetes, feel better, have more energy and be kinder to the earth and the animals on the earth.  This is a demonstration class.  At the end of the class we will eat all the food I have cooked.

Welcome to "Delicious Living". My reason for starting this group was to meet like minded-health conscious people in the area and to support and empower those trying to get healthier. I know that it can get really confusing navigating through conflicting and always changing health philosophies out there.  The BIG secret is that there is NO SECRET.  We just have to eat the way nature intended us to, which is real food, unprocessed, unrefined, and food that nourishes us on a cellular level. I belie …

Time consumption ---It takes more than a year for one cow to mature for consumption. Social norms should be reevaluated. -- Anything can be eaten as long as its benefit/harm is scient …
