Publisher Comments:

Curious about veganism? Want to be a vegan? Already a vegan? Just wondering how to be vegan without going insane? In this informative and practical guide on veganism, two seasoned vegans help you love your inner vegan freak. Loaded with tips, advice, stories, and comprehensive lists of resources that no vegan should live without, this book is key to helping you thrive as a happy, healthy, and sane vegan in a decidedly non-vegan world. Witty, opinionated, and eminently useful.

In this sometimes funny, sometimes irreverent, and sometimes serious guide that's not afraid to tell it like it is, new, long-time, and potential vegans will find:

  • how to go vegan in 3 weeks or less using the cold tofu program
  • the arguments for ethical veganism
  • how to get along with friends, family, and others, including other vegetarians
  • tons of useful and practical tips for surviving the grocery store, restaurants, and dinners with omnivores
  • how to respond when people ask you if you like live on apples and twigs
  • how capitalism is implicated in animal and human oppression
Vegan Freak: Being Vegan in a Non-Vegan World is your guide to embracing vegan freakdom. Come on, get your freak on! About the authors: Tattooed leftist vegan freaks themselves, Bob and Jenna Torres both hold PhDs from Cornell University.
