Vegan Mofo: Spooky Style

October is Vegan MoFo month, and what a great months for vegans it is. For those not in the know, Vegan MoFo stands for Vegan Month of Food and it's a month of amazing posts on vegan blogs. The Vegan MoFo goal for bloggers who sign up is to make a post a day on their blog for the entire month of October. The posts often have a theme chosen by the author, which can lead to a lot of creative and entertaining content. It is a vegan dream.

My favorite example of themed posts this year is Don't Eat Off The Sidewalk http://donteatoffthesidewalk.com.
The author of the blog is a fan of horror films and her theme for MoFo is giving fun reviews of her favorite spooky/horror films and coming up with menus inspired by the movies, complete with links to the recipes. The best part is that she not only includes films for horror geeks, but also kid-friendly favorites like Hocus Pocus. I'm sold.

Eating Vegan At The Fair

Yesterday I took a little trip to the Tulsa State Fair and while fried and unhealthy foods were plentiful and in the majority, I also found a pleasing amount of vegan-friendly fair, including a pineapple whip ($3) which was delicious and worth the brain freeze.

I also found: A spinach & black bean burrito sans cheese and ranch sauce-$7.50, a soft pretzel with no butter-$3 (just ask them to glance at the box), a hummus plate-$5, a veggie sub, and sorbetto $5.

There were probably other options I missed as I didn't walk by every stand. It's great to know that vendors are becoming more aware of and accomodating to vegan customers. If you serve it, we will come. And spend our money. It's a win-win situation.
