VegVine Philly Toolbar: Veggie Fun at your Fingertips

Eating less meat reduces carbon emissions greatly and has many other eco benefits. (For example, food for a vegan can be produced on 1/6 of an acre vs 3.25 for a meat eater!) But whether you want to go vegan, vegetarian, or just incorporate a more veggie-friendly lifestyle into your diet, it can be a little tricky to find local resources:

Vegvine has menus, restaurants, news, and calendars just for those who are veg-friendly.  The Philly restaurant section describes vegetarian, vegan or health store options complete with contact info & reviews.

You can add the VegVine toolbar to your browser – Easy step by step instructions are displayed on the webpage. I just downloaded the tool to my firefox & am psyched to check the dropdown of Veggie recipes! (especially since my breakfast burritos & kitchen sink salads need a rotation soon…)

Enjoy!
