On the Not 2 Popular Podcast, we talk about everything taboo and controversial from minor things like tastes in food to major things like politics. Let’s get real and honest about touchy subjects, keeping an open mind and an open heart instead of immediately canceling someone forever. We hope this platform is a learning tool for people to become more empathetic and embrace our differences. Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/not2popularpodcast/support

    When major celebrities and public figures like Miley Cyrus publicly announce they are quitting the vegan lifestyle, it makes one wonder, were they ever truly a vegan or was it just for dietary purposes? Or worse yet, to jump on the bandwagon with the rising popularity of plant-based foods and beverages being marketed all over the world. Veganism has grown into a multi-billion dollar industry in the last decade or so, and naturally there are people who want to cash in on what's trending and profitable. So what is the difference between actually being able to call yourself a vegan and the plant-based diet fad? And why is it important to understand the difference? Follow us on Instagram and Twitter.
