Guest guest Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 I love my Vegetarian Times magazines! Great stuff, you will enjoy them. Sad about the dog, though. Very painful time for them, I'm sure. Kadee Sedtal Messenger with Voice. Make PC-to-Phone Calls to the US (and 30+ countries) for 2¢/min or less.

Guest guest Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 I suscribed to it for a while back in the late 80's....in fact, I have a copy with Dennis Weaver on the cover and he signed it for me in 1989...and I have a copy with John Denver on the cover and he signed it for me in 1988. I have not seen a copy in years so don't know how it compares to the older ones. I enjoyed it....some of them had good recipes...some were not as interesting to me. If you have a Barnes & Nobles near you, why not go in and take a look at the latest copy and see what you think. Or try buying back issues on ebay....here is one auction going off in about 8 hours for 16 back issues: http://cgi.ebay.com/VEGETARIAN-TIMES-16-BACK-ISSUES-1997-2000_W0QQitemZ170200758\ 932QQihZ007QQcategoryZ280QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem Here is a listing for a subscription with no shipping with a Buy It Now for $6.95: http://cgi.ebay.com/Vegetarian-Times-Magazine-1YR-Subscription-FREE-SHP_W0QQitem\ Z270219904441QQihZ017QQcategoryZ82146QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem I am not really sure why I stopped subscribing to it....kids were getting older and costing more, I think.

Guest guest Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 I get this, but don't really do a whole lot with the recipes. I like the articles, especially one section where they talk about how certain companies are doing concerning environmental issues. They also will have articles on one type of food...say " mangoes " ... and talk about their health benefits, how to use them, and give recipes. That can be helpful. I occasionally stop buying it like Donna mentioned, but I always end up resubscribing eventually.

Guest guest Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 I did not like VT either but on your recomendation, I will look for VegNews. I think I will buy several editions at walllyworld before I get a subscription, though. Just to be sure I want to continue getting it.

Guest guest Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 I d to VT for years and rarely if ever made any of the recipes. I d because of all the health and vegetarian articles that kept me informed. I no longer . Years ago I d to a magazine called Vegetarian Gourmet and loved that one., I found the recipes were less 'gourmet' than the ones in VT. Alas, it folded and I have missed it. I still use recipes from that one. ( ) ( __ c\_/ Audrey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 i still really like Veg Times, it used to have more articles, now it seems to be all recipes. I actually tend to make the recipes frequently, though they are good for someone who is vegan or has been veg for a while rather than transitional. My husband still eats meat on occasion and does not appreciate my veg times recipes very much, he likes things with faux meat and texture vegetable protein, etc. more. The other veg magazines are fun on occasion but I still to veg times, health, and prevention are my favorites. , Cassie Dixon <roxy87cabriolet wrote: > > I get it and like it.

Guest guest Posted June 22, 2008 Report Share Posted June 22, 2008 Yes it sure would be wonderful to see a brief survey. It's become so popular now and I believe with the internet, more alternative products to select from and all the available cookbooks around people are finding it much easier. Donna Sent via BlackBerry from T-Mobile " Gypsy\(Curls\) " <lovemylocks Sun, 22 Jun 2008 23:10:39 To: Re:Vegetarian Times Donna, you just explained my thoughts totally. I know that some people are not aware of the different " trade names " for being vegetarian. It would be nice if they included a short " definition " for what most of us know as the definition and then they can more accurately choose what fits them mostly. But even with that, there will be a margin of error. So, I am back to your response, just to see the numbers for those living a vegetarian lifestyle would be nice. I would like to see what the numbers are. It has to at least have made it to be more than 1% of the population. I think I will drop them a line and see if they will incorporate a survey some time in the future. I will keep my fingers crossed. -Gypsy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 22, 2008 Report Share Posted June 22, 2008 I can't wait to peel back the pages and see what I uncover. Thanks for letting me know that it has gotten better and the recipes are really holding true! I also like it so that I can stay abreast of what is going on in the world of vegetarianism and the latest information. I would love for them to do another survey and see how much of the US population is vegetarian and vegan since they last did it in the 90's. It would be interesting to see how the numbers have grown. And hopefully they clear up what it means to be vegetarians and vegans, so we get rid of any gray areas and truer numbers. -Gypsy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 22, 2008 Report Share Posted June 22, 2008 I think just having a survery finding out the number of vegetarians would be good enough. I don't think there really is a gray area. There are so many labels people give themselves these days. I know people who call themselves vegans and yet eat fish and have never heard the word pescatarian, I know others who follow a vegan diet unless they eat out or they suck Altoid breath mints or candy with gelatin, there are several I know who follow a vegetarian diet for months and yet go off the wagon a few times a year and have never heard the word flexitarian and is that really an accurate word for them. I eat 99% vegan but I won't call myself vegan, if I eat bread and an egg is in the mix or I feel like a teaspoon of parmesan on top of my spaghetti or a pat or butter on my toast then I have it so I wouldn't be telling the truth if I called myself vegan yet my diet leans more towards vegan than vegetarian. It would be a milestone to see figures for vegetarian in general. Maybe we should write and ask them to start a survey.

Guest guest Posted June 22, 2008 Report Share Posted June 22, 2008 I hate to see people HAVE to label themselves. I feel like if someone just eats healthy vegetarian meals several times a week that is great even if they are not strick vegetarian. To me it is kinda like when you breastfeed a baby. Doctors recommend to breastfeed exclusively for at least the first 6 months.....and to breastfeed for at least the first year. Now I breastfed all of my daughters much longer than that recommended one year time and I hear women say that they could not breastfeed for longer than 2 weeks or 6 weeks. I usually tell them that they did a great job and got their babies off to a fantastic start whether they were able to nurse their babies for the recommended length of time or not. That is the way I look at doing anything that is good for me or for any of my 7 children or 12 grandchildren. And there are a lot of people who, I am sure, have no idea about the gelatin in an Altoid mint. For me....it is not what someone eats so much as how they treat animals and their attitude toward all of Gods creatures.......all of them, including fish or insects, spiders or snakes....none of which are my favorites in the animal kingdom. (I would just rather they live somewhere besides my yard.) But, you work hard.....you do the best you can.....and just try to remember that you are only human, as we all are whether we are vegetarian (whatever degree), vegan, pescatarian, flexitarian or occasional meat eaters or meat eaters all of the time. I think if we are all tolerant of one another's food choices, no matter what they are choosing, we will all be happier.

Guest guest Posted June 23, 2008 Report Share Posted June 23, 2008 I know that you have seen an increase to the group, so it HAS to be on the grow. That is wonderful. I remember I was seeing a vegetarian at one time and I had no desire of going veg, because I saw it as scarcity instead of abundance. He NEVER talked about it more than I asked and NEVER tried to convert me or anything. That was 8 years ago and I wish I had asked more questions or that he would have spoken of it a bit more. I am sure I would have been a veg for a number of years now instead of just beginning a month ago. And he could have been a wonderful resource too. I remember asking him what he did for BBQ’s and such. He said that he would BBQ some tofu and other veggies. I thought that was a bit too weird for my tastes and likings (oh how naïve and judgmental I was!). After that I never asked and he didn’t say much else that really sticks out. He just ate his food and I ate mine when we went out. I brought my whole family to veg*nism at one time. So, a lot of us are coming in droves hopefully. And I am sure the internet has helped in that area hugely. I am using groups, forums, recipes sites, veggie info sites, and the library for information. Back to 8 years ago, I was not big on the internet either. So, the questions I was afraid to ask went unanswered and didn’t come up again after my friend moved back to Michigan. By that time I had lost interest. (sad face) So, it would be nice to see. -Gypsy Sun Jun 22, 2008 8:21 pm (PDT) Yes it sure would be wonderful to see a brief survey.

They might have an identity problem with their target audience. When I used to about a year ago. They would have an article about vegan thanksgiving recipies.. then the next page they would marvel at the wonders of goat cheese. They would have an article about animal cruelty.. and next page they they have an article about the different varieties of honey. I mainly just ignored this, but I could see how some vegans might get annoyed with the magazine.
