Midweek Links: The Best Vegetarian Prisons

Written by vegoftheweek on Thursday, May 15th, 2008 in Midweek Links.

Some say prisoners shouldn't be allowed to be so picky about their food choices while others say allowing a prisoner to choose such healthy alternatives is the first step to self-respect, and the first step towards releasing a productive individual into the world. Some inmates even become vegetarians/vegans while in prison. Interesting reads.

After looking at the menus, I cast my vote for Georgia's system offering tofu scramble and vegan brownies. Coming in 2nd is Pennsylvania's tofu cacciatore. What's your pick?

More discussion on vegetarianism and athleticism. A longtime vegetarian and professional cyclist and coach, Adam Myerson, president of Cycle-Smart, wrote several articles a few years ago in a series called, "The Vegetarian Athlete." Below are links to all three articles.

Vegetarian Tax Break

Written by vegoftheweek on Thursday, April 17th, 2008 in Midweek Links.

Midweek Links are a little later than usual due to the fact that I've been scrambling to get state taxes done. (Knocked out federal last week.) While trying to decide on the links, I researched vegetarian and taxes (I love themes as you might have guessed) and discovered that a "vegetarian tax break" was proposed a year ago. Many of you might already know this, but I didn't, so I thought I'd link to this article, as well as one blogger's response. Any thoughts?
