My mother-in-law made a classic 90s German cake today: a delicious, veganized ‘Maulwurfkuchen’, i.e. ‘mole cake’ (because it looks like a mole hill). Normally, you’d make it with banana, but she used fresh raspberries instead. 😋

Worrying that this requires a whole article and is not simply the default position for academics… there is no shortcut to learning and research, at least none that has any lasting value. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

I’m in heaven a.k.a. Land&Monkeys, a 100% vegan bakery in Paris! 🤤 We had French classics like chocolate éclair, tarte au citron, and flan! 🇫🇷🌱🐒

i've been a #vegan for 30 years, vegetarian for 53, and i have also been (financially) poor the entire time.

I only found out today that the tag #geodog exists! So here is palaeo/geo dog Minnie admiring the dinosaur footprint she found.

Tonight, we ate like the ancient Greeks and Romans: I made Athenian cabbage, Cato’s olive relish, Alexandrian squash, and Pompeiian panis quadratus 😊🍷🫒🏺🏛️ Recipes: www.britishmuseum.org/blog/cook-cl...

Extra virgin olive oil cake. 🫒🍋 Recipe from Philip Khoury’s wonderful ‘A New Way to Bake’. 📖 He was Head Pastry Chef at Harrods in London and specialises in plant-based baking.

“Squirrel!”

No serious scholars are using AI to do their writing for them. If you're using LLMs to write up research articles, review grants or manuscripts, or grade, you're a joke.

My niece just sent me this collage and made me aware of this NASA website where you can create your own: science.nasa.gov/specials/you... Neat. 🙂🌍🛰️

This was at the Ashmolean in Oxford a few weeks ago. 🐦 The fresco featuring a wood pigeon is from Pompeii (a recreation); the stone relief is, apparently, from Ancient Carthage! #PigeonSky

Do you know anyone who’s been vegan for longer? 😍💚

Mentally, we‘re still in Crete, so we recreated and veganized some classic Cretan dishes at home: “dakos” (carob rusks topped with tomatoes, olive oil, and cheese) and “lihnarakia” (sweet cheese pastries) 🇬🇷🍅🫒

One of my favorite things to do when visiting any museum is trying to spot all of the pigeons. 🕊️ I struck gold (literally) at the Heraklion Archaeological Museum on Crete! 🇬🇷 Minoans, Greeks, Romans — they all depicted pigeons using various mediums: rocks, ceramics, gold, glass, mosaics 🐦 #PigeonSky

Factory farmed chicken is Nova 1. If that's not an indictment of the schema as the basis for either food system regulations or adjudication of desirable food for consumers, I don't know what is.

made a Persian Love Cake for the occasion 🩷 💕 Recipe: vegnews.com/recipes/vega...

Today's ALT #BirdOfTheDay theme is #EverydayBirds set by @alan678.bsky.social & often seen on a regular basis is the feral Pigeon but they come in so many variations of colours like this one that I photographed in the garden today 12/02/26 🪶🦉 #birdingWales #ukbirding #birdphotography #EastCoastKin

My husband made Λυχναράκια (Lihnarakia), traditional pastries from Crete 🇬🇷☺️💙

Here's a part of the definition of milk from Samuel Johnson's 1755 dictionary: '2. Emulsion made by contusion of seeds. Pistachoes, so they be good and not musty, joined with almonds in almond milk, or made into a milk of themselves, like unto almond milk, are an excellent nourisher.'

A lot of food politics makes more sense if you understand it as an ongoing set of battles between incumbent and emergent interest groups trying to shape the market to their advantage.

A place opened just a few houses down from my old high school that has seitan döner kebab 😋🥙🌱

I had to try it, of course… It did not disappoint! 🤤😋

We don’t talk enough about Alfre Woodard’s performance in Star Trek: First Contact. Stunning. And among other things, brought out some of Patrick Stewart’s moments. He rarely had a partner who could meet his energy, but she did. 🖖🏽

every chicken sandwich is a life taken, a worker with carpal tunnel syndrome, land wasted growing feed instead of food. but people line up for them and the line goes up and shareholders are happy and the business media reports on "higher-than-expected quarterly earnings."

Y‘all have *no idea* how long I’ve been waiting for Just Egg to be available in Europe! 😭 At least since 2014/15 when they were still Hampton Creek and in their R&D phase. 🥲 This mung bean “egg” is simply incredible 🥚🍳
