Holy, Organic Lettuce For Sale
The Grumpy Vegan made his first visit to Firle, East Sussex this afternoon, which is an exceedingly pretty English village deep into the English countryside not very far from the sea.
He took this photo on the way to the church in Firle. The sign says, “The vicar’s organic lettuce 80p, radishes 50p.”
There’s a halo drawn over the “i” in vicar.
Shut Up and Eat
The Grumpy Vegan adds an impolite heading to a polite video produced by those associated with the Buddhist monk, Thich Nhat Hanh.

Vegan Myths Debunked–In Song!
Killing the Messenger While Killing the Animals
Businesses making a living from killing animals for some people to eat as food also want to kill the messenger for persisting in exposing what they do. These extremely cruel acts, and their institutionalised exploitation of animals, which are accusingly blamed on the consumer for their consumption of dead animal body parts to eat, is, ironically, the very acts these businesses don’t want the consumer to see. That’s why, in the US, they’re taking steps to make illegal the actions of brave animal rights people from going undercover to document and publicise what these businesses do.
The most recent example from the outstanding Mercy for Animals is so outrageous that the Grumpy Vegan decided not to post the video here. Go here to learn more. The Wall Street Journal comments that ‘The video helped to push June futures down 1.3% to $1.1565 a pound after the contract hit a two-week high earlier in the trading day.’ The video helped to push the Grumpy Vegan into despair. Also worth reading is this article from The New York Times.
Talk about agribusiness in bed with elected representatives conspiring to kill the messenger just because they don’t like the truth being told about what they do.
Nevertheless, some of the legislators efforts to censor critics have come to nothing.
