synchronicity

I love it when great minds think a like. Just as I challenged a local reviewer to consider a week of eating as a vegan, London food critic Jay Rayner has done exactly that. His piece about the experience gave me some of the best laughs I have had today.

Rayner's standpoint can be best summarized as:

I also don't believe you can be genuinely happy and vegan. I think the two are mutually exclusive. The thing is, Morris dancing and incest aside, it's hard to criticise something unless you've tried it. My week as a vegan will add substance to my argument. These are the sacrifices I am willing to make for the moral low ground.

Thanks Wendy for getting me on the hunt for this article.
