As the name suggests, Vegunks is a group of ethical vegan and vegetarian climbers/mountaineers, created for the purpose of organizing daytrips to the Gunks (and possibly other areas).  ALL levels and abilities are welcome, including folks who had never climbed before.  The point here is not to climb 5.12, but rather to create a community of compassionate, easy-going climbers, make new, like-minded friends, and have fun!  If the group shows interest, we may also plan extended mountaineering trips …

I decided to start this meet-up group because I've noticed that Hoboken is not as vegan/vegetarian friendly as it could and should be. However, I strongly believe that there is strength in numbers and the first step is to find each other.

(and veg curious folks are we …

Welcome to "Delicious Living". My reason for starting this group was to meet like minded-health conscious people in the area and to support and empower those trying to get healthier. I know that it can get really confusing navigating through conflicting and always changing health philosophies out there.  The BIG secret is that there is NO SECRET.  We just have to eat the way nature intended us to, which is real food, unprocessed, unrefined, and food that nourishes us on a cellular level. I belie …

Here are the facts as discrete as possible (reference links on the bottom): We believe our everyday food is inefficient. Energy production/cost efficiency ---e.g. less than 1% of the consumed energy in production of beef is actually produces the final product) ---This also applies to most most farm plant foods. Time consumption ---It takes more than a year for one cow to mature for consumption. Social norms should be reevaluated. -- Anything can be eaten as long as its benefit/harm is scient …

I would like to enlighten th …
