Bozeman Biology - 0 views

  •  
    We use these videos a lot in AP Bio and they've been incredibly helpful in understanding human processes and other areas of biology, as well as a little bit of chemistry. They are simple enough for anyone to understand, as long as they watch the correct videos first, but covers so many subjects that it's incredibly helpful for either a wide-spectrum or specific study.

'Fed Up' Theatrical Trailer - 0 views

  •  
    I got this trailer via Russel and Ms. Camera and it looks great. I suggest to anyone who is concerned about the obesity epidemic and would like to educate themselves on the subject of sugar and how it is related to our health, as well as how it is perceived in our society.

UK government to intervene in Monsanto GM soy case - 0 views

  •  
    If you haven't heard of Monsanto and how they are the primary cause of why about 90% of soy grown in the U.S. is genetically modified, you might be living under a rock. Nevertheless, this article just informs the reader of how yet another company is filing suit against Monsanto, and this time in the UK.

The Top 10 Farm-to-Table Restaurants - 1 views

  •  
    This is just a list of some great farm-to-table restaurants in the U.S. which I would love to go to some day. Sadly none are in Vermont, but I love how restaurants become so innovative with seasonal and local ingredients, which I feel like every business should strive to achieve.

Forks Over Knives - 0 views

    This documentary, book, and lifestyle has affected my life in a million ways. It completely opened my eyes to the connection between food and health and I highly recommend it to anyone, not just those who are labeled as "granola hippies" but to anyone interested in how they can be both healthy and informed.

  •  
    This site and page especially have been really helpful in my study of how pesticides hurt both human health and the environment. Along with that the page also talks about ways to fix the current problem that are specific and easy for anyone to understand.

Chocolate Covered Katie - 0 views

  •  
    While I don't agree with all her cooking methods and ideas, I've used a few of her recipes lately as kick-starts for mine, and it's great for people on trying to make sweet things healthier, or perhaps less animal-product based (which is what I was looking for)

The Chubby Vegetarian - 0 views

  •  
    I honestly have no idea how I managed to forget posting this blog on here. This blog, by far, is one of my absolute favorites! Not only that, but their cookbook is amazing. The cooking has both modern and traditional aspects, which is great when easing my family into vegetarian and vegan cuisine. I definately suggest this blog to anyone who is thinking about being a vegetarian, but worries about losing some of their favorite foods. Believe me, you won't be!

C'est La Vegan - 0 views

  •  
    I just discovered this blog today and have found it very helpful. I'm fascinated by alternative cooking techniques, and how the whole chemistry of food can still work when on a vegan diet. I especially admire her dessert recipes. This blog shows that being a vegan doesn't have to stop you from indulging in yummy treats and comfort foods once in a while!

Oh She Glows - 0 views

  •  
    This is a Vegan blog that I absolutely love. She covers both entrees and desserts, and even has a portion of her blog to fitness and well being. I love blogs that are focused on health over all, and that definately transfers to a lot of her recipes. I strongly suggest trying her sweet potato burger, even if you're not vegetarian or vegan.

Vegangela - 0 views

  •  
    I just discovered this blog today, and I can honestly say I'm in love. Angela puts a twist of vegan food because she gets inspiration from cultures all around the world. I grew up on these kinds of foods and love that just because I'm a vegetarian, doesn't mean I have to miss out on the things I love! I'd definitely check it out if you're into healthy eating, vegan or vegetarian diets, or just yummy food from around the world.

Pinch of Yum - 1 views

  •  
    I've recently become obsessed with this website. In fact, it was my main reference for the majority of my Thanksgiving dishes this year. I love the elegance of the food, yet the retaliative simplicity as well. Most everything is extremely healthy and focused on a vegetarian and vegan diet. Another thing I love about this website is that under the "Resources" tab, it has a section on how to start a blog, which I no doubt will be using as I try to improve my own!

Coconut and Quinoa - 0 views

  •  
    I just discovered this blog recently, and I'm already in love. The blogger highlights seasonal vegetables and everything she posts seems to be filled with color and goodness. I'd suggest this to those who are looking to get out of the "norm" of vegetarian eating, because the stuff she makes tends to be not what most people are used to eating. Locavores, organic food market regulars, and foodies rejoice; this is your blog.
