Hey Pickles!
We really hope this episode finds you well.
This week, we tell you about a new Buffalo NY vegan spot that we visited. Sevens Vegan Cafe & Bakery provided a fantastic lunch experience, and we'll give you all the delicious details!
In our Noteworthy segment, we debunk some recent headlines that have been reporting that vegans cannot build muscle due to not ingesting animal protein.
We'll share a recent scientific article that proves that to be false!
And, in our Main Topic this week, we share some good news in the vegan space.
You'll hear about a vegan fast food chain that's expanding to 18 more locations, a story of how the NIH is working towards phasing out animal testing for medicines and foods, how a former animal testing facility has been transitioned into an animal sanctuary, and Italy has recently banned puppy yoga. We love some good news!
Here's a link to watch a video of the sanctuary that we talk about: https://www.usatoday.com/story/life/animalkind/2024/04/25/watch-a-former-animal-testing-lab-transform-into-an-animal-sanctuary/73438215007/
We feature a new vegan spot in our Vegan Restaurant SOS series. It's one you don't want to miss, as the owners are looking for a buyer, and plan on closing this coming November.
We also have a new Listener Shout Out , and a heaping helping of our usual shenanigans.
Enjoy the show, and thanks so much for listening.
Much love, Sam & Christine
