Veggie Cooking Shows

[Guest guest]

Hey All,

 

After watching the food network cooking shows I realize there are really

no vegetarian cookings shows. I don't think Emeril doesn't know what

vegetables are. Bam!! Of course, I just may not know of any, so if you

do let me know. Food network doesn't take recommendations from people

other then production companies. Also thought it would be fun to have a

show maybe on public access? I thought it could do all kinds show such

as 101 basics for newbies. It suck trying to be veggie/vegan and not

how to make yourself anything decent to eat. Maybe one week could be on

raw food, another could be vegan, and of course then tons of ethnic

veggie/vegan dishes,whatever. Books are great but sometimes it's easier

seeing it done. I don't know anything about public access television

such as costs or what not but after a few shows I seen on there it can't

be too bad. Another idea was maybe have guest chefs on the show from

the various vegan/veggie/raw/whatever restaurants. Maybe they would be

kinda to let us film in their kitchen. Well this was just my idea and I

have no clue about producing a show but i figured there gotta be someone

on here that does.

Actually there is an all vegan cooking show on PBS called " Christina Cooks " .

She's been doing it for years and is probably the first and only vegan chief

on TV. There's something like 140+ episodes in the series. They don't say

the vegan word, but all recipes are vegan and she basically tells the

audience not to use any animal products and why not. Check out her website -

The show pops up on the local PBS once or twice a year, but I've not seen it

in a while, so maybe worth calling or writing your local PBS channel to ask

to bring it back, or better yet if you're a donor to your local station ask

them when you renew.

 

There's also a very cool vegan cooking show on on NYC public access called

" Post Punk Kitchen " , with a bunch of DVDs available, so no reason why you

cant get it on local public access here.

 

VeganPorn.com has also just started a new online cooking show with quick and

easy recipes -

And of course, there's Colleen's cooking DVD which was produced locally.

 

But I agree it would be great to get a vegetarian cooking show on the Food

Network.

 

Take care

Chris
