  • The Future of Veganism
    Apr 12 2024

    In our newest episode, we dive deep into the future of veganism, exploring the trends, challenges and exciting developments that might lie ahead for vegans worldwide. Research points to the growing demand for plant-based alternatives and the environmental impacts of animal agriculture becoming increasingly apparent. The vegan movement is poised for significant growth in the coming years. Using research, we discuss how the future of veganism is shaping and how we hope the world of vegan food, business and culture changes in the coming years.

    We recently discussed the history of veganism and thought it only right to dive into the future of the vegan world.

    Technology and Veganism

    One key area of focus is the intersection of technology and veganism. As new technologies become more accessible and affordable, they have the potential to revolutionize the food industry. This advancement could make veganism more mainstream than ever before. We discuss the many possibilities of how technology will shape the future of veganism but of course, we want to hear from you. How do you see technology shaping the vegan world?

    Of course, challenges remain. Despite the scientific consensus on the benefits of plant-based diets, there are still many obstacles to advancing veganism. This episode will explore our thoughts on what we hope for the future and what our research taught us.

    Join us as we explore the future of veganism and how we can all contribute to a more compassionate and sustainable world.

  • Kombucha Taste Test
    Feb 6 2024

    We're at it again, and this time, with a Kombucha taste test, you have to watch and listen to! If for nothing but our facial expressions and reactions. Seriously, this is one of the funnier taste tests we've done and it felt like torture sometimes. Ultimately, you will hear about three kombucha drinks we liked and three we absolutely hated.

    Kombucha, the probiotic-rich fermented drink, has become a health sensation and a staple in many gut-loving vegan households. In our new episode, we embarked on a taste test journey that Meg has avoided since we started the podcast and David has craved!

    In this kombucha taste test, we feature six different varieties of kombucha, all with the base flavor of strawberry. We aimed to explore kombucha by trying various brands and uncover which ones tasted the best to us and which left a less-than-pleasant impression. If we like it, you figure you will as well.

    David was excited to try all the options and Meg was scared. For good reason. But we went about each sampling of strawberry-infused kombucha with an open mind. The six varieties showcased the creativity of kombucha brewers from around the country, featuring unique blends of fruits, herbs and flvaors.

    However, the verdict was split right down the middle. Three of the kombuchas proved to be delightful, offering a perfect balance, while the other trio left us cringing. You'll have to listen and watch this episode to see which brands won our kombucha taste test and which ones absolutely failed.

    Here are the six kombucha options we tried:

    • Brew Dr. Strawberry Fileds
    • Ca. Craft Babe Kombucha Maui Wowie
    • Humm Probiotic Kombucha Strawberry Blossom
    • Synergy Raw Kombucha Strawberry Serenity
    • Rowdy Mermaid Kombucha Strawberry Tonic
    • Health-Ade Kombucha Strawberry Glow

    While taste is subjective, we hope that sharing our opinions might help you find a kombucha that fits your taste buds. This was a serious reminder that not all kombuchas are created equal. Whether you're a seasoned kombucha enthusiast or a curious vegan looking to incorporate this fermented beverage into your diet, this kombucha taste test is a valuable guide to finding the strawberry-infused kombucha that suits your palate.
