What is Vegophobia exactly?

Vegophobia-is a words some vegetarians and vegans use to describe a group of the public at large who are  generally misinformed or undereducated about what it means to be a vegetarian or vegan. Not to be confused with 'Lachanophobia' (scared of vegetables). It means fear of solely a vegetable based diet. 


You might hear questions from someone who suffers from the phobia like "...But what do you eat then?" or the ever popular "so...you don't even eat fish...or BACON?" 


This blog serves as one cure for the phobia by way of introducing those who are afraid into the world of delicious meat-free cuisine. 


Most of the recipes are laughably simple and are cooked by a 23 year old university student who lives in Halifax, Canada in a 6 foot by 12 foot galley kitchen.


YES you can cook vegetarian food!
