Where does your food come from?
There are few cases when eating locally grown food has HIGHER carbon footprint than eating imported food, like if you are in a country where the weather dictates that the food has to be grown in greenhouses.

How to replace meat...
Select plant-based complete sources of protein
Iron Vegans need 33mg of iron daily, as they are not eating any animal products
Eating citrus fruit together with plant-based iron sources helps the body to absorb the plant-based iron better

Why we should eat seasonal food
There are few exceptions though, e.g. sweet potatoes are best eaten quite a while after harvest
Marley Spoon's meal kit answers that recurring question, "What are we having for dinner tonight?". Every week customers select online which recipes they want to cook. Marley Spoon delivers fresh ingredients in just the right quantities, with step-by-step recipe cards.
