From Excuse-itarian to Vegetarian with Colleen Patrick-Goudreau

"I tried eating vegetarian, but I just craved meat." "I don't eat a lot of meat." "I don't have time to chop vegetables." "Eating vegan is more expensive." Combining humor and wisdom to tackle the most popular excuses for not eating a plant-based diet, Colleen Patrick-Goudreau leaves no rationalization unexposed and offers sound and practical tips for living a life that reflects the values of sustainability, compassion, and simplicity.
