Easy sleazy.<\/p>\n
But- there are some things, like creme brulee, that are impossible to make successful Whole Food Plant Based versions of – by any stretch of the imagination.<\/p>\n
Sorry – but flax eggs, dates and soy milk will never equal Julia Child orgasm creme brulee.<\/strong><\/p>\n I\u2019m not saying that the hippie flax brulee won\u2019t be edible. It might! I\u2019m saying that if it looks like a dessert that came from The Allergy Friendly Cafe and it smells like a food co-op, chances are it will be more chalk-like and less moist dream in your mouth.\u00a0The closest thing I’ve ever experienced to a whole food plant based orgasm dessert is our Chocolate Cake recipe<\/a>. I don’t know how we did it but we’re wizards and wizards can to amazing and unthinkable things sometimes.<\/p>\n When you make the switch to eating this way, know that there are some things that can\u2019t be hacked with whole plant magic. Hard boiled eggs, butter, cream cheese, smoked salmon, coffee creamer, potato chips, delicious slice-able cheese that melts, bacon, and of course creme brulee – Julia style, to name a few.<\/p>\n You might be able to buy or make vegan versions of some of these things, but none of them can be recreated with whole plants in a way that will make you pee your pants with excitement and immediately update our private Facebook group<\/a>.<\/p>\n And that\u2019s life. There will always be variables that we have no control over. But what we do have control over is how we respond to those variables.<\/p>\n Accepting that some foods can\u2019t be replicated and then eliminating the desire for those foods<\/a> makes this whole transition a hellofalot easier.<\/p>\n It doesn\u2019t happen overnight, but the more you go without these foods, the less you want them. And when you do occasionally eat foods that you used to love that can\u2019t be recreated with whole plants, they’ll taste strange and out of place.<\/p>\n I ate a piece of a baguette dipped in really expensive olive oil (something I used to LOVE) and I couldn\u2019t believe how strange and out of place it felt in my mouth. It wasn’t at all appealing and I had no interest in having another bite.<\/p>\n When you reach this point, it\u2019s almost like you want to enjoy the foods that you used to enjoy, but you just don\u2019t. So you go back to eating broccoli and quinoa, you put on some fucking patchouli, and you start making a pair of rope sandals because, well…if the shoe fits.<\/p>\n This might be disappointing for a half a second, but the reality is, when you lose your taste for foods that aren’t doing your beautiful bod any favors, it becomes really damn easy not to eat them. Plus, rope sandals are suprisingly sturdy and functional, so it’s a win-win.<\/p>\n\n
