A Meaningful <strong>Vegan</strong> New Year Eve<br />

In support of the Christmas and New Year food and<br />

fund drive organized by the Ontario Vegetarian Food Bank<br />

in 2010, the local Loving Hut restaurant served a hot vegan<br />

lunch for its customers on New Year’s Eve. They also<br />

children. Both adults and children appreciated the delicious<br />

meal very much. Some were surprised to learn that the<br />

cakes were made only with vegan ingredients. Eco-friendly lunch boxes<br />

also were provided for customers to take food home for their family<br />

members.<br />

Malan Joseph, founder and president of the Food Bank, thanked<br />
