Then 4th Annual Akron Peace Week is partnering with many downtown restaurants this year to create "Peace Week Specials." These specials are vegan options each location will be highlighting to draw attention to the peaceful foods available to our community in many of our local restaurants.
We will be adding a full list of participating locations soon. I can tell you that Ms Julie's Kitchen, Urban Eats, and House of Hunan are part of the group.
Food is a key ingredient to peace. Both within and without. In our bodies and minds, the food we eat physically creates our bodies. When we put good, healthy, plant-based foods into our bodies, we provide our body with all it needs to keep us healthy and energetic. When we feel good, we tend to find more peace with those around us as well. On the bigger picture, food scarcity and crop failures are putting the world in very precarious situations. Wars have been waged because of lack of food and water, and this will only grow more intense in the future without changing our habits. Along with this, trillions of animals are slaughtered and tortured every year to provide us with "food" that we do not need as a part of our diet and only leads to cancer, heart disease, stroke, Alzheimers, diabetes, obesity, deforestation, depletion of water and energy resources, and unnecessary suffering.
Please support the businesses who choose to highlight a Peace Week Special.
