Letters to Editors

Thanks for the Healthy Meal Kit Chart
After reading "Boxed Up" (Issue 4, 2021), we decided to try several vegan meal services. Purple Carrot meals were delicious, but more work to prepare than I was willing to do as a retiree. FoodNerd was easy to make, but a little too earthy-granola for my husband and me. Daily Harvest was just right. We have become regular subscribers and enjoy the smoothies, soups, bowls, and flatbread pizza delivered every week. It saves time and planning, and we feel better with these meals than with carry-out. We're not vegans, but we appreciate healthy plant-based food that's easy to make and tastes great. Thanks for this resource and the magazine.

Update from 2021 VRG Scholarship Winner
I would like to thank you all again for everything! My parents got the Issue 4, 2021 Journal and were very happy when they saw my page, and I am honored to be featured. I am also having a great time at UCSD. I have joined Tritons for Animals, which is an animal welfare club, as well as the UCSD Food Co-op, which provides affordable vegan food for students. I am very excited to further my advocacy throughout the university and become involved in these groups. I will also be interning with the Factory Farming Awareness Coalition starting Winter 2022 and I look forward to continue working with them! Again, thank you all so much.

I had not received any magazines for a long time. I was really missing them! I always thoroughly enjoy the news and science and recipes. Many thanks for your great work over many years.
