In their latest blog post, Jenny Sangler turns her readers attention towards an article in the Toledo Blade that reports increasing numbers of African Americans choosing the vegetarian lifestyle.
While the reports ring true, Jenny admits that both as a child and as an adult, most of her black friends placed meat as a very important part of their diet.
The author interviewed several black vegetarians in the Toledo area, and they all vegetarians, they had different reasons for choosing the lifestyle and different experiences with how that decision has been received, she says.
For example, the article focuses on Ishmael Shakur, who has now become a dedicated vegetarian, despite shunning it while growing up.
He tried the vegetarian diet for thirty days and felt so great that hes stuck with it ever since, Jenny adds.
In another example, the article talks to Greg Cunningham. Greg was overweight, had been diagnosed with Diabetes and had dangerously high blood pressure. However, since choosing to adopt a vegetarian lifestyle he has lost seventy five pounds and soon hopes to stop taking some of his many medications.
Concluding her latest blog post, Jenny makes it clear that she positively supports the right for every American to choose their diet and lifestyle.
Im also feeling a little selfish anticipation of new recipes, cookbooks and web sites as more African-Americans join the vegetarian ranks. Some serious vegetarian soul food is absolutely welcome on my plate, she says.
