Ep170. Coping with negative vegan bias in the media

The Simply Vegan podcast is your weekly dose of plant-based food, news and topical chat with Vegan Food & Living 's Holly Johnson and Molly Pickering. We kick off today's episode by hearing from one listener who found a new career at a vegan charity after listening to this podcast (yay!), Holly shares her vegan eats following a holiday in Cornwall and we announce some news that you might be a little sad to hear. We go on to discuss this week's vegan news , including mainstream reports on vegan influencer Zhanna Samsonova's death 'from starvation' after a decade of eating a raw food diet . We look at whether a raw vegan diet is 'healthy', the negative bias towards veganism in the media and the click bait reality we are living in. We also touch on the news that Little Mermaid actress Halle Bailey and her sister, singer Chloe Bailey, accidentally ate meat after ten years of being vegan. Should this be headline news? Is it OK to fail ? And how would you feel if this happened to you?
