Seattle this week to discuss their vegan recipes and America’s relationship with food.

The cover of the controversial vegan cookbook, “Thug Kitchen.”

They packed their suitcases only to learn Monday they were uninvited.

Book Larder, a culinary-themed bookstore in Fremont, decided to cancel a book signing scheduled for Wednesday night over concerns that critics would take over the event.

The authors also canceled two events in the San Francisco Bay Area earlier this month after people threatened to disrupt and protest.

Ya'd think they'd get a pass for being "vegan".

OTOH, from earlier today, Plants Can Tell When They’re Being Eaten

"The Race Card" trumps all.

I love it when the Left days their own.

Oh, they’re meat...nevermind.

“...an example of racism and cultural appropriation.”

Cultural appropriation? Seriously?

I don’t suppose the author is aware that “Thug” has its origins in 14th century India? Talk about your cultural appropriation.

Not sure why anyone would want to claim the modern-day “thug culture” as their own in the first place, either. But I digress.
