EP. 200: Welcome to a milestone episode of the Realfoodology Podcast! After four years of dedicated work and your unwavering support, we've reached our 200th episode. Today, I'm thrilled to have Chef Mollie join us once again. Many of you know her from Instagram, and she's been a beloved guest on the show before. This time, we’re covering her latest bold move: transitioning her vegan restaurants away from exclusively vegan fare. We explore topics ranging from the history of her restaurant Sage to the importance of regenerative agriculture, carbon sequestration, and the nuanced perspective that "there’s no such thing as vegan food." Join us as we discuss the evolution of food consciousness, the nose-to-tail movement, and the crucial role of aligning ourselves with nature. Whether you're a seasoned foodie or just embarking on your culinary journey, this episode offers insights, reflections, and perhaps a new perspective on the plate. Don't miss out on this enriching conversation and the chance to support Chef Mollie's innovative endeavors!
