hi-itsmadeline:

you-are-another-me:

Castoreum is the ooze from the castor sacs of beavers that comes out along with their urine—and it’s used as “natural” raspberry flavor in tons of mainstream products.

But you won’t see this one on the food label—the FDA has determined that it can be listed as “natural flavoring” to hide the truth.

It’s natural all right—naturally icky!

The thing about stuff like this is… Who was the dude that first decided to eat this and was like “Mmm! Raspberries! Lets put it in everything.”

Grooooooooss

Breakfast made by hubby. Tomato and smoked cheese on toast. Tesco does an amazing range of dairy free stuff now, the smoked cheese being the best. Shame some of the less evil supermarkets can’t up their game vegan wise.

Leek and potato pie aka Wang Pie (see previous post)

Boiled potato cubes, leek cooked down with some oil and thyme (from my garden) and plopped in Jusroll pastry with a cashew cream cheese sauce. Yum ^ ^

Me- I’ve got some left over pastry and not sure what to do with it. My bro- You could be really childish and make some sort of wang shape on top of the pie. Me- Challenge accepted ^ ^

Tell me again about how meat eating isn’t a privilege.

THIS. FUCKING THIS.

I would love to shove this into anyone’s face who has ever told me that being a vegan is a privilege. 

This…

Really looking forward to this in the summer….a long party with other wonderful weirdos! 

Just got tickets for this. Very excited ^ ^

Managed to find a ponzu sauce in Japan Centre that didn’t have bonito in it. This of course called for a stir fry. Tempeh, pepper, spinach, spring onion and broccoli in ponzu and sesame oil dressing served with brown rice. Also squeezed on some sriracha for funzies.

Bought the new Ms Cupcake book today and it is amaaaaaazing. Attempted to make the Victoria sponge and it would have been perfect if my tins hadn’t been all crap. Basically a bit at the bottom got stuck and so the cake broke. Booo :( The cake itself is yum though, all soft and spongey.

So yeah here is a pic. Will attempt it again and do it better next time :)

Go buy the book here…

Kiwi and soy milk pudding with very strange, popping, passion fruit juice filled ball things. They were amazing. Again from Candy Cafe in China Town area of London.
