Welcome to Vegetarian Foodie Fridays! Where we’re not just Meatless on Mondays, but all week through! Hi! My name is Melodie and I’m a long time vegetarian who’s into real food, holistic nutrition, and healthy living but suffers from a sweet tooth! (I love homemade baked goods and ice cream). To learn more about why I became a vegetarian or why I choose to raise my children vegetarian please click on my links.
Carnival Guidelines
- You do not have to be a vegetarian/vegan or have a vegetarian/vegan blog to participate.
- Your dish must be completely meat-free (no fish or seafood and no meat based broths, etc). Eggs and dairy are fine. Desserts and other baked goods are welcome as are vegetarian-friendly food-related and health posts.
- You may link any appropriate post you want. The date doesn’t really matter to me, although most people will link to something within a week old.
- Please link back to the carnival in the body of your post.
- Please ensure you link back to your post and not your blog.
- Please use your best carnival manners.
- Please try to visit others’ posts.
- Have fun!
My post this week is called Understanding Nutritionism and The Problem With Infant Formula. If you’re new to the word “nutritionism” then you aren’t alone. I was too until this week. This post gives you a run down on what nutritionism means. As well, it discusses how I think eating a real food diet can protect children from infant formula exposure.
Shout Outs

There’s something about glazed whole grain scones that gets me psyched about getting up early in the morning to bake, and then going to sit on the porch in my bathrobe while the air is still crisp and cool, nursing a cup of creamy homemade chai while scones bake in the oven. Katie at Riddlelove is a gal who chooses health but doesn’t allow that get in the way of a little treat now and then. And don’t think these Glazed Cranberry Lemon Scones with Spelt are anything but delicious. You will not be disappointed!
How could you NOT love to scones for breakfast! Yum! What an amazing treat!

I love scones – and if they are made with healthy ingredients too it’s wonderful! I’ve posted a spicy Indian inspired biryani dish. Thanks so much for hosting and have a great weekend.

I am new to this food carnival. I am not a vegetarian anymore, but I was for 10 years, so I do make a lot of veggie dishes. I have never made scones, but I will give it a try! They look yummy!

Hi, Melodie. Thanks for hosting, and thanks also for all of your support and comments on Spoonfed in the last week. I really appreciate it.
You asked about sending a photo for “Picture this.” I was planning to use photos from our own experiences, but, hey, you never know! So, sure, send it along if you’d like.
For the carnival this week, I’m posting about 11-year-old Birke Baehr and his impressive and inspirational talk on the state of the food system.
Since I posted the video on Tuesday, that post has gotten more than 1,200 pageviews. And that’s on top of the hundreds of thousands of views on You Tube and other blogs. The kid is touching a nerve. And I say amen to that.
