Gaz Oakley, known as the Avant-Garde Vegan, is a vegan chef and cookbook author from Cardiff, Wales. He was described in the Daily Telegraph as "a star of the meat-free world" whose "recipes have gained the respect of herbivores and carnivores alike."&nbsp;
Oakley, who grew up in Cardiff, was taught to cook as a child by his father and got his first job in a kitchen aged 15. He left school at 16 to work in the kitchen full-time. For several years, he worked in hotel and restaurant kitchens in Cardiff. He then switched careers to work in a builder's yard, becoming a sales manager. The new job offered him more free time, and he took up fitness and strength training activities.&nbsp;
It was through this that he first started to move towards veganism. After hearing a radio interview with the vegan musician Jme, Oakley looked up videos of Gary Yourofsky, and it was these that encouraged him to switch to a vegan lifestyle. After success encouraging friends and family to transition to veganism, he decided to use his skills and experience in cookery as a form of vegan activism. He launched the @avantgardevegan Instagram page in February 2016 and, later that year, gave up his sales job to focus full-time on activism and cookery.&nbsp;
The Avant-Garde Vegan YouTube channel was launched at the end of the year. He went on to write several vegan cookbooks, as well as partner with The Vurger Co. and Wagamama to create vegan foods. Oakley told The Sunday Times that the COVID-19 pandemic had caused his subscriber numbers to hit one million.&nbsp;

Patience Gray’s greatest work was the passionate autobiographical cookery book Honey from a Weed. It is Mediterranean through and through and as compelling as a first-class novel. Within a few months of its first appearance in 1986, it was hailed as a modern classic. Fiona MacCarthy wrote in The Times that ‘the book is a large and grandiose life history, a passionate narrative of extremes of experience.’&nbsp;
Jeremy Round called Patience Gray ‘the high priestess of cooking,’ whose book ‘pushes the form of the cookery book as far as it can go.’ Angela Carter remarked that ‘it was less a cookery book than a summing-up of the genre of the late-modern British cookery book.’ The work has attracted a cult following in the United States, where passages have been read out at great length on the radio, and it has been anthologized by Paul Levy in The Penguin Book of Food and Drink. The André Simon Book Prize committee gave it a special award in 1987.
Patience Gray shared the life of a sculptor, Norman Mommens, whose appetite for marble and sedimentary rocks took them to Tuscany, Catalonia, the Cyclades (Naxos), and Apulia. These are the places that, in turn, inspired this rhapsodic text.
Everywhere, she learned from the country people whose way of life she shared, adopting their methods of growing, cooking, and con¬serving the staple foods of the Mediterranean. She described the rustic foods and dishes with feeling and fidelity, writing from the inside and with a deep sense of the history and continuity of Mediterranean ways.
Her life in the Salento contrasted with an earlier, and indeed glittering, career in Fleet Street, but she sacrificed the deadlines of the past to the rhythm of wine-making, seasonal sowing, and gathering. Patience Gray died in 2005.

In the United States, one in seven people is at risk of hunger; one in three people is overweight. Far from being separate issues, these problems have many of the same root causes: The global industrial food system is a primary culprit.&nbsp;
By examining it through the lens of a single American dinner, We the Eaters outlines how this system has led to our current food dichotomy; it also provides specific actions that individuals can take to address these problems.&nbsp;
Gustafson addresses complex topics with clarity and humor, using real-world examples and easy-to-understand language to explain how even seemingly small decisions—on what we eat, whom we buy from, and where we shop—can have far-reaching consequences. For example: Our agricultural policies encourage farmers to grow corn and soybeans for cows instead of for hungry people.
