Tagala Brothers: Vegetarian Voices and Violins

Here, from an episode of Ruffa and Ai, performing So Happy Together. The brothers were raised and homeschooled by musically-inclined parents and have been vegetarian since 1991. They were breastfed and are supporters of the breastfeeding movement, garnering for themselves the Lifetime Achievement Award of Breastfed Princes at the Malacanang Palace, 2009.

About Gulay Girl

I’ve been vegetarian for 8 years, and in 2009 I was vegan!

It was fun experimenting in order to veganize Pinoy food (which is flavorful but meat-laden), and learn from already established cuisine that can be vegan-friendly. (Go, Japanese food!)

It was not always easy to find many western vegan products (like soy cheese) in the Philippines, but two things that made being vegan easier was the fact that vegetables (as is almost everything else here) are inexpensive, and more and more farmers are going organic!

Gulay means vegetables – a food group I hated when I was a finicky eater growing up. Who knew I’d become vegetarian?

When I have time, I’ll write more about my decision to go back to being vegetarian in 2010 For now, enjoy the other posts!
