This process of learning and practicing fulfills me and motivates me to constantly reaffirm my choice to be vegan.The author’s passion for food is most evident and perhaps most infectious when he discusses food justice and the fact that people in many communities throughout the country, including West Oakland, have limited access to healthful, affordable and culturally appropriate food. Terry believes part of his mission is to change the way people think about vegan and vegetarian dishes and in the process, to work to lower disease associated with unhealthy lifestyles in food-insecure communities. He speaks frequently to students at high schools and colleges around the country.

As important, he’s encouraging all of us to learn the story of the food we make and consume and helping us generate our own stories as we share these healthy eats with the communities we love.” The book is fine. The food seems like it would be okay (except...the cornbread... jfc) but I dunno. I guess the main problem I had was the remix, and also how food is actually really distinct in all these cultures and I didn't feel the recipes went with each other. But the solution isn't as simple as erecting more supermarkets or groceries stores. Accessibility serves as the first behemoth for increasing nutritional value — reshaping demand and reducing costs follows directly behind as nutrient-rich food can cost ten times more than "junk food," not including the increasing wealth gap or price inflation.

In a large skillet, warm the olive oil over medium-high heat. When it starts to shimmer, add the fennel quarters, cut-side down, and cook, turning the fennel with tongs, until all the cut sides are golden brown, about 20 minutes.
