“We’re trying to overcome the crunchy-granola reputation. Our image needs to be polished. People think that a vegan diet is a sacrifice, that it’s tasteless and unappealing. It’s not. They think you can’t get enough protein, calcium or iron. You can.” — Priscilla Feral, national president of Friends of Animals and author of The Best of Vegan Cooking. Priscilla was quoted in a story, Turn Over a New Leaf: Vegan Diets are Moving Solidly into Mainstream, on the Hartford Courant news site.
