Default After 60 years of ridicule, Vegan is the New Black

(PRLEAP.COM) Even though the word Vegan is considered a taboo, dirty
word by the UK tabloid newspapers, veganism is reaching out and
inspiring people all over the world like never before in it’s 60 year
history.

Tony Bishop-Weston Author of ‘Vegan’ by Hamlyn says “A journalist from
one of the top UK tabloids told me that their editor had banned them
from using the word ‘vegan’ as it was too scary for their readers. All
health and beauty stories have to be dumbed down to use the word
vegetarian instead of vegan. ‘Herb tea’ was also on the taboo list.”

“The lack of an amiable vegan in a major TV soap and the apparent UK
tabloid decision to reserve the word vegan for crowd control and shock
tactics may be the only 2 things stopping a tidal wave of veganism being
unleashed” says Tony.
