Hi Crystal,

I would love to see the video that inspired this decision. Can you post a link, please?

Comment on “Vegan Fundraising for Cancer? Uhhh… why?” by Jasmine Philip

I think it is GREAT that your fundraiser is vegan! I am not vegan, but the more I experience delicious vegan recipes, the more I incorporate vegan foods into my diet. Coming from a place of joy rather than altruism is also fantastic. I am going to make a concerted effort to eat more plant based foods this year just so I can feel better physically! I wish more cancer fundraisers would be as empowering a concept as this. We are too reliant on disease control over disease prevention. Yay for you, keep going!

Love your website. Ironically I watched forks over knives last night and am sincerely considering becoming vegan. I train for triathlons so it’ll force me to really evaluate my diet anyways your website is fun and very informative. Keep up the great work! And thanks for advocating health with nutrition.

Hi Annie!
This is the best story ever! I totally remember your house. Little C loves dogs so much. She kept asking me, “Remember that dog that kept licking my face? That dog liked me!” Thanks for your support!

There aren’t many good veggie places in Saskatoon, but I’m a big fan of Red Pepper (downtown on 3rd ave) and their coconut currie with tofu. Beware of Amigo’s… a lot of their food is not vegetarian, let alone vegan. In fact, I won’t eat there at all anymore. Keo’s (on Broadway) is pretty veggie-friendly. As much as I love Dad’s Organic market (on 8th) and Steephill Food Co-op (on Broadway), Superstore has great selection of vegetarian and vegan food. They have Daiya “cheese” now! There’s always Subway and Extreme Pita (they have a separate place to cook the veggies only and falafal). Let me know if you have questions. My email is vegantriathlete at gmail dot com.

Thanks for this awesome comment!

Hi Crystal!

I’m a fellow vegan in Saskatoon. Now I can safely say there are two of us!

How did I find you? Funny story. You came to my house collecting bottles the other day for charity. I live in the house with the two crazy dogs (one’s called Mischief and the other one was jumping up like a maniac). You handed me a piece of paper and I noticed the “vegan triathlete” website which made me oh so curious so here I am!

I’ve only been in Saskatoon since September. Any tips on where to eat/shop, etc.?!

Thanks!

Annie

Great points altogether, you simply received a brand new reader. What could you recommend about your post that you simply made a few days ago? Any certain?

Hi VT,
I just found your blog. I’m a vegan triathlete & just completed my first Ironman in AZ. It’s great to find other vegan triathletes. Thanks for the recipes & nutritional info.
