Caribbean Vacation: Vegan a Go-Go
Sarah Kramer latest vegetarian book is a good bet for taking with you on your caribbean vacation. Yes, Kramer launched her fourth book, “Vegan a Go-Go” last week in Toronto. It was a simple launch attended by mostly friends and well wishes from the Toronto vegetarian community.
“Vegan a Go-Go” includes various meatless recipes for the traveler who finds it difficult to get good vegetarian or vegan food while on vacation. From the time you start your holiday, first boarding the plane to go to your island destination, in your hotel cafeteria, or on the beach, you meet a stinking smell. The odor comes from dead animals sacrificed to feed a hungry mob of tourists and other visitors.
I must admit the large resorts do have an assortment of dishes that will satisfy the typical vegan traveler, but most of them just serve up the same fare that makes you sick. Also, when you are traveling from island to island, you run the risk of not eating properly because you have to say “no” to most dishes you find in your travels.
Since the Caribbean islands is logically a part of a grand scheme of seas and rivers, naturally you would expect that most of the cuisine include fish cooked in many ways. Of course, this is not appetizing for the vegan holiday goer, though.
Yes, you need to get your proteins to preserve your health while you cavort the beaches and dance your nights away at the nightclubs on many of these islands. But as a vegan or vegetarian you want to ensure you get them in an ethical way.
So Sarah Kramer’s new book “Vegan a Go-Go” will always find a spot in your luggage. It is compact and comes with a sturdy cover that will withstand the harsh conditions of traveling in the Caribbean.
You can visit Arsenal Pulp Press, her publisher, to get a copy of “Vegan a Go-Go” before they sell out.
