✨💎「每個人都該為這世界做點事情。這才是錢的意義。」
國際中心/綜合報導
美國一名高齡98歲的男子葛雷默(Russ Gremel),靠著投資股票錢滾錢,把1000美元(3萬元台幣)變成了200萬美元(6000萬元台幣),成了人人稱羨的富翁,不過,令人感動的是,葛雷默不但沒有將財富拿去購買豪宅、名車等奢侈品,反而霸氣地將財產全部捐出去!根據外媒報導,葛雷默認為,民眾總是需要藥物,女性也相當喜愛購買化妝品,於是他在70年前,買進價值1000美元藥品連鎖店Walgreens的股票,並決定長期持有這筆投資,直至今日,他的股票價值已超過200萬美元。
隨著Walgreens的股價不斷增值,葛雷默的財富也日漸豐厚,不過,他沒有因此過著虛華無度的生活,他不但沒有買豪宅、名車等奢侈品,吃飯寧願在家吃燕麥,也不願出門吃大餐,他坦言自己是一個很簡單的人,「我從沒有讓人知道我有這些錢。」最後,他將全部都錢都捐給了非營利機構伊利諾奧杜邦學會,「每個人都該為這世界做點事情。這才是錢的意義。」

🌷消費者越來越不想買肉了
美國近十年來的紅肉年均攝取量下降了15%,有有30%的人口是彈性素食者🌱。而根據GlobalData的全球性研究,有70%的消費者刻意減少買肉,甚至都不買了❗
70 Percent of Consumers Worldwide Are Cutting Back on Meat and Embracing Veggies!
Meat is quickly losing favor with consumers. In the United States, the annual per capita consumption of red meat has dropped by 15 percent within the past 10 years. Today, about 30 percent of consumers identify as flexitarian, or people who choose to leave meat off their plate more frequently. But this change is happening in more than just the United States. According to a recent study by data and insights firm GlobalData, 70 percent of global consumers are cutting back on meat or avoiding it altogether.
GlobalData’s study revealed more than just the fact that people are consciously avoiding meat — the way they view vegetables and protein are changing, too. According to Nicole Peranick, the director of culinary thought leadership at global retail strategy and service company Daymon, “Thanks to a new focus on flavor, innovative, and exotic vegetable dishes are emerging to dial up craveability.”
What does this mean? Peranick highlights prepackaged cauliflower steak and vegetable noodles, as examples of new, unique ways that retailers are showing consumers how these vegetables, that have often been pushed to the side of our plate, can, in fact, be the focus of our meals. On top of that, more retailers now offer prepackaged plant-based meals that make leaving meat off one’s plate more convenient.
Peranick also highlights how the way we view protein is changing, with increased offerings for plant-based proteins such as pea, hemp, chia, and flax as a cleaner alternative to whey in the space.
GlobalData’s report is just another study that shows the future of food is plant-based. As a result of the growing consumer concern for their health, the health of the planet, and animal welfare, we are seeing a steady decline in the consumption of meat and dairy. As more people choose to leave meat off their plate, consumers are seeking out healthier plant-based meat alternatives and vegetable-centric dishes and retailers are catching on to those trends with innovative, prepackaged options that present vegetables as more than just a side dish.
It’s exciting to hear a global retail strategy and service company encourage retailers to consider expanding their plant-based options, but if you love to cook from home, we highly recommend checking out the Food Monster App. The app is available for both Android and iPhone. With over 8,000 vegan recipes (and over 10 new recipes added daily), you’re going to find something you love!

Vegan Bodybuilders Win 32 Medals at 2017 Fit Games
http://vegnews.com/articles/page.do?pageId=9607&catId=1
By Anna Starostinetskaya | ?? 7, 2017
PlantBuilt vegan bodybuilders break a world record at the 2017 Naturally Fit Games in Austin, TX.
Vegan nonprofit bodybuilding organization PlantBuilt collectively won 32 medals during the 2017 Naturally Fit Games in Austin, TX last Saturday. The games welcomed 1000 total participants—39 of whom included PlantBuilt’s entrants—who were challenged in various fitness events including kettlebell, powerlifting, bodybuilding, Olympic weightlifting, and CrossFit. In addition to winning 32 medals—22 of which were for first place—the vegan team’s own Sara Lee set both the world and American records for kettlebell. PlantBuilt was founded by husband-and-wife team Dani Taylor and Giacomo Marchese in 2013 for the purpose of proving that consuming animal products is not necessary for building muscle. “As long the meat and potatoes crowd exists in strength-based sports,” Marchese tells VegNews, “we will continue to educate and dispel the myths that you need to eat meat to build muscle and strength.” Marchese hopes to add new members to the team in 2019 and compete in a wider variety of sports including Strongman events and Jiu Jitsu. “People may chuckle at the little vegan team in the morning,” Marchese says, “but by the evening, when we have shown what we can do, we have many people asking more about veganism and plant-based lifestyles.” To date, more than 100 athletes—from countries around the world including Singapore, New Zealand, Australia, Canada, Great Britain, and Germany—have competed with the PlantBuilt team and have raised $20,000 to support vegan outreach organizations, non-profits, and farmed animal sanctuaries.

A Brand New Meat-Free Supermarket Chain to Open in Switzerland!
In the past decade, the grocery store landscape has undergone a dramatic transformation. While premade meatless burgers, plant-based meats, and dairy-free options for milks, yogurt, and ice cream were once scarce, thanks to rising consumer demand they have started to take over grocery store aisles. Large-scale grocery store chains such as Whole Foods, Target, and others now have entire shelves and freezers dedicated to their plant-based options — and in one case, a plant-based burger is infiltrating the meat aisle in some grocery stores.
In that light, it’s no wonder why we’re also witnessing what seems to be an increase in the number of grocery stores that only focus on stocking plant-based options. Just last week, one of Switzerland’s largest wholesale and retail companies, Coop Cooperative, opened the first location of their vegetarian and vegan supermarket chain, Karma!
According to VegNews, the shop will feature options for plant-based meats and milks released under their house brand as well as options from other European brands. In addition to that, the supermarket will feature a cafe, grab-and-go options for food, cosmetics, and more.
Karma is joining other completely vegan and vegetarian markets out there, such as Cruelty Free Shop, the world’s largest vegan grocery store, in Australia; GreenBay, London’s first all-vegan grocery store; Food Fight! in Portland, Oregon; as well as Orchard Grocer, Riverdel, andHaymaker’s Corner Store, in NYC.
While grocery stores overall are starting to carry more vegan options, the increase in the number of all-vegan or vegetarian grocery stores is just another sign that the future of food is plant-based!
