Show Info: White Flour is podcast that looks at food and culture from a vegan/sociological perspective. Through current news articles, research, and interviews, I talk about what we eat, why we eat it, and how our consumption habits affect our relationship with ourselves, those around us, and the environment.
In this episode, Chris and I discuss the sexualization of veganism and what a bummer it is that veganism often mimics mainstream ideas of beauty and fitness instead of carving out new territory (or at least that was the point I was trying to make), I express bad body feels, and we (mostly Chris) bemoan the ways veganism would be great except people. After that, I look at feminist critiques and rejections of veganism as well as vegan feminist responses to those ideas, and lastly I chat with Callie and Nichole from Vegan Warrior Princesses Attack! about the short feminist horror film “The Herd”.
