Excerpt – ~ ……according with the more profound investigations of Graham, Lambe, and other dietetic reformers. He gives them to understand, in general terms, that the more simple and plain their food the sooner they may expect to recover health. He tells them that coarse, unconcentrated food is the best, eaten cool or cold; that brown […]</p> <p>The post <a href="https://www.happycow.net/blog/abandoning-all-animal-food/">Abandoning All Animal Food – Vegan Advocacy From The 1840s</a> appeared first on <a href="https://www.happycow.net/blog">HappyCow</a>.</p> ]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>https://www.happycow.net/blog/abandoning-all-animal-food/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Advocates of Vegetative Food organize an American Vegetarian Society</title> <link>https://www.happycow.net/blog/advocates-of-vegetative-food-organize-an-american-vegetarian-society/</link> <comments>https://www.happycow.net/blog/advocates-of-vegetative-food-organize-an-american-vegetarian-society/#respond</comments> <dc:creator><![CDATA[John Edmundson]]></dc:creator> <pubDate>Thu, 21 Aug 2014 17:14:42 +0000</pubDate> <category><![CDATA[vegan history]]></category> <category><![CDATA[vegetarian history]]></category> <category><![CDATA[american vegetarian society]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Dr. William Lambe]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Ernest Bell Library]]></category> <category><![CDATA[joel shew]]></category> <category><![CDATA[MARY CHANDLER]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Reverend William Metcalfe]]></category> <category><![CDATA[The Vegetarian Advocate]]></category> <category><![CDATA[William Horsell]]></category> <category><![CDATA[William Metcalfe]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.happycow.net/blog/?p=9961</guid> <description><![CDATA[<p>“Vegetative” – an adjective – meaning – “relating to vegetation or plant life” Here we share, for the first time on the Internet, an 1849 letter.
