Food columnist Grant Butler of Portland’s Oregonian, included Bryanna Clark Grogan’s World Vegan Feast in his top-five favorite picks for  2011 cookbooks. Touting World Vegan Feast as “the first [book] in almost a decade from one of the pioneers of ambitious plant-based cooking,” Grant described the directions for these ethnic dishes from around the world as
“so instructive you’re sure to pick up new tricks and techniques.”

“Looking back on 2011,” he writes, “it’s clear that veganism went mainstream in a big way.”

I couldn’t agree more. This is a big triumph for vegan and vegetarian coalitions from the environmentalists, to the animal rights groups, to the growing ranks of health-conscious Americans looking to plant-based foods as genuine “health care.”
