Thanks for Spanish Information
I am very happy to come across your website! My girlfriend lives in Havana, Cuba, and eats a very heavy meat diet, as seems to be the norm in that area. She also is concerned about cancer, and I've been wanting to try to get some information to her about the health effects of eating so much meat and oil. She has actually gotten food poisoning from bad meat five times in the past year! But what's for dinner? Meat, of course! I'd like to find any Spanish language materials on the subject of the health benefits of eating vegan or vegetarian; the link between meat and cancer and diabetes, etc. Thanks so much! I'm excited to explore the resources on your website, www.vrg.org

Love the Cover Photo on Last Issue
I wanted to compliment the cover photo of "Fancy Toasts" (Issue 3 2021). As a food photographer, I know how tough the shot was, and it's an inspiration. As a vegan cook, I'm ready to bite into that tasty BLT Toast!

Old Caledonian B&B and Natural Farm No Longer Vegan Establishment
My partner Michael and I purchased the Old Caledonian Bed and Breakfast (mentioned in Issue 3 2021 Vegetarian Journal) in April. We just received your Vegetarian Journal magazine with Jon's caponata recipe in it and wanted to let you know that we are no longer exclusively vegan.

We saw your April 28 blog entry, "Vegan Bed & Breakfast Establishments and Other B&Bs that Accommodate Vegans," and noticed that we are included as a vegan B&B.

Can you update that to "B&B with vegan options"? We have had some guests book with us and have been disappointed when they discover we are no longer exclusively vegan, even though we are willing to accommodate them!

Also, the full name of our inn is now "Old Caledonian B&B and Natural Farm."
