On Sunday I did a talk and demo at Evolution Fast Food.

They had fliers with my face all over -- it felt really cool!

I have to give a plug to the owner, Mitch. He is such a nice, caring person, and really passionate. His restaurant rivals McDonald's and Burger King and he dreams of having 10,000 locations too so there is a vegan choice everywhere. I was so honored to be part of San Diego's annual Meat-Out …
