That would depend on your definition of stamina. For some you think a quick 30 minutes, is all that is needed.
Others like a lot longer encounter. 
As usual I spent more at the Vegan Festival than I had planned. Got some tasty organic hulled raw hemp seeds. :hippie:
Also yesterday there was a Bloor Street Fair, the road was closed to traffic between Spadina and Bathurst. Made the walk to the Vegan festival a lot of fun.
Thanks for this, I happen to have 4 bananas in the freezer and the only ingredient I need to pick up is peppermint extract. On Saturday I made a batch of granola bars using this recipe as a template, they turned out soft and chewy and better than I was expecting.

Meat eaters gonna hate, please watch and decide for yourself. Here is the link for earthlings doc. Let me know if you have any questions about adding more vegan options into your life! It took me 2 YEARS to get to where I am today. Bless ~

I found a much better doc for those hesitant about looking into 'the other side' so to speak. Not any where near as graphic, this one is based more on ideas. Cheers guys

Organic butcher in Kensington Market loves and hates me because all the organic free range meat I buy is for my dogs. I have a choice, but don't believe in denying them their nature.
Read the article , wonder if the vegan ( non-cabbage ) ladies taste better as well? Hmmmmm?
Vegan Fest @ Fort York is coming up soon and has a great list of vendors.

Field Grains was banned in Canadian stores a few months ago because their labels say "Grain Meat" which the Cnd food agency thinks is too confusing for us dumb vegetarians and we need to be protected. They'll be at this festival so I'm going to stock up; that alone makes it worth the $10 admission price for me.

Thanks for sharing! It looks like a wonderful way to spend a day - counting down the hours!
Just as an aside, they were removed from Canadian stores due to an animal testing issue - the CFIA fielded a complaint from a competitor, and then requested that Field Grains test on animals to prove the "Protein Efficiency Ratio". The CFIA wanted Field Grains to test on animals to prove this, and obviously they decided to refuse to do the testing. Due to recent modifications to their packaging and ingredients, they were recently allowed back into Canada. Also, I believe that YamChops on College sells Field Roast products.

juicing is BS
waaaaaaaaaaay too much sugar
juicing does not release the nutrients and a normal diet is not low on nutrients anyway but is on fiber
Thanks for letting me know that Field Roast is back. I'll check The Big Carrot tomorrow, that's where I used to buy it.
My instinct is that Yves Veggie Cuisine made the complaint because they don't want any competition. They dominate the shelves of big grocery chains even though their stuff is crap.
I went vegetarian for health reasons and to eat better, so I avoid their garbage product.

That Yves can get away with calling this "veggie cuisine", but Field Roast was the one found to not be up to our 'standards', makes me convinced they paid people off in the government, and also made the complaints about Field Roast. There's no fucking veggies in it at all! And extracting components, drying, modifying, and supplementing them with chemicals and extruding that into pastes and patties is in no definition of the word, "cuisine".
The Big Carrot does indeed have Field Roast again!
And Vegan Fest at Fort York was amazing yesterday. I wasn't expecting so many thousands of people to attend. Some of the vendors ran out of food by early afternoon, and a few had huge line-ups, like the people selling their vegan version of Big Macs.

"the best rated burger in the world is vegan." http://metro.co.uk/2015/11/11/the-b...n-announced-and-it-has-no-meat-in-it-5493619/
This is as vegan is it gets for me.
