Okay here’s a post with some links to good books, blogs, videos etc. I’ve created a separate page for it here. It’s a work in progress and I’m sure I’ve missed quite a few so if there’s anything you’d like to see added, just send me a message. I’ve activated anonymous asks unless the douchbag parade moves in on it, so if you’re shy but want to say or ask something, now’s your time.
Videos
Some of these aren’t vegan related but all are definitely worth watching - they’re either nutrition based, vegan based or environmentally based.

Food blogs/ websites
(okay some of these are now defunct but you can still trawl their archives for great recipes and info. Most of them are vegan but some are raw - I haven’t separated them because we could all do with more raw in our lives - raw vegan or not!)

Also, don’t forget you can always search for ‘vegan’ on flickr, facebook, tastespotting and foodgawker for even MORE food ideas. Check out the blogrolls of your favourite vegan bloggers to get even more. I like to keep my intake small but there’s a lot out there, the internet is jam packed full of inspiration these days. I haven’t included tumblrs because it’s pretty easy to find them yourself, but if you want me to add a list of my favourites then let me know.
