Heather Mills exclusive: Burgers To the University That Ditched Beef

Vegan businesswoman and athlete Heather Mills has offered to donate at least 1,000 plant-based burgers to Goldsmiths University.

The London university recently announced plans to ban the sale of beef on campus as part of a slew of initiatives aimed at making the institution carbon neutral by 2025. These include phasing out single-use plastics and installing more solar panels. The ban follows the 2018 publication of an Oxford University study that suggested eating a vegan diet is the 'single biggest way' individuals can reduce their environmental impact.

Now Mills wants to help students and staff change the way they eat by giving the institution her VBites burgers made in her plant-based food factories in the North East. 

Goldsmiths beef ban

Professor Frances Corner is the new Warden of Goldsmiths. She ordered the beef ban, saying: "The growing global call for organizations to take seriously their responsibilities for halting climate change is impossible to ignore."

She added that staff and students at the university 'care passionately about the future of our environment' and are determined to take action.

"Declaring a climate emergency cannot be empty words," she continued. "I truly believe we face a defining moment in global history and Goldsmiths now stands shoulder to shoulder with other organisations willing to call the alarm and take urgent action to cut carbon use."

'Action is needed'

"I totally applaud this inspirational move by Professor Corner and I completely support her stand," Mills said in a statement sent to Plant Based News. "She is absolutely right, empty words will not tackle the climate emergency, action is what is needed, and I have been saying this for 20 years.

"That's why I am prepared to donate at least 1,000 vegan burgers in order to help students and staff at Goldsmiths ease into a plant-based way of eating which is so much less damaging to the planet. 

"The meat-eaters at Goldsmiths won't miss their beef because these British-made vegan burgers taste so much like meat that in America, the very home of the big meat-eaters, where we've been taste-testing them this summer, they have consistently scored 10 out of 10 against alternatives."

Switch 4 Good

Switch 4 Good Training Camp - Plant Based Athlete Summit                      

Los Angeles 25 - 26 August 201

Heather, invited by Dotsie Bausch an Olympian cyclist and a fellow compassionate activist for plant-based living, participated as a keynote speaker and panelist to help Athletes ditch dairy, in a Plant Based Athlete Summit held in Los Angeles, USA, 25 – 26 August 2018. 

 

The S4G Summit prides itself in being a training Camp for athletes, influencers, scientists and doctors who are all assisting with spreading the message that dairy is not a health food. 

 

The summit was filled with passionate humans, wanting to make a difference in the world and have a monumental impact on changing people’s hearts and minds to ditch dairy.

 

During the 2018 Winter Olympics, Dotsie, along with several other influential vegan athletes, produced a commercial, titled Switch 4 Good, in response to an advertisement put out by Milk Life. The S4G commercial, which can be viewed here, was a huge success. Dotsie and her team are now taking what was the original Switch 4 Good (S4G) Olympic commercial and are creating that into a world-wide movement.

 

Heather opened the Summit with an incredible keynote speech, hitting home the true dangers and myths surrounding dairy and the medical complications that can arise from consuming dairy and the impact dairy consumption has on the animals and the environment.

 

Throughout the course of the weekend Heather also joined other athletes and key individuals on various selected panels to discuss related topics such as the significant importance of a plant based diet and the benefits this can bring to the mind and body, as well as solutions on converting the carnivore in the short term with exact alternate meat, fish and dairy products to wean them off animals.

 

Each vegan athlete and influencer had their own unique story inspiring people to ditch dairy and embrace in the wellbeing of a plant based lifestyle.

 

Jessie Lingenfelter | Director of Public Relations said:

“Heather's presentation, video, and delicious V-Bites absolutely stole the show, and we are so grateful for her attendance!

 

Thank you for your help in everything related to Switch4Good and the summit.”

EXHILARATING SPEECH - VEGAN CAMP OUT 17 AUG 2018

HEATHER GIVES AN EXHILARATING KEYNOTE SPEECH TO OVER 2000 PEOPLE

unspecified.jpeg

Vegan Camp Out returned this August 2018 for another successful festival.

Vegan Camp Out, who are partnered with Viva is the UK’s largest vegan camp out, this year sporting an impressive line-up of speakers, activist workshops, yoga and fitness classes, plus a huge array of plant based food options throughout the 2 day festival.

Heather was invited by Jordan Martin the organiser, to open the festival with a keynote speech on Friday 18th September.

At 8.45pm Heather took to the stage with a crowd of over 2000 jostling for a space in the main hanger at the Nottingham Show ground.

Heather’s inspiring hour long speech covered many topics that are prevalent amongst today’s ever growing vegan society, such as the current dairy industry problem and its 3 billion cost to subsidise them from we the taxpayer to transitioning to living a plant based lifestyle, as well as activism and nutrition.

But the main message was working with the opposition and problem-solving by making the farmers self-sufficient and not a burden to the taxpayer by changing the dairy industry to grow pea protein and crops instead. Heather's company VBites can buy and utilise in the millions of tons.

Heather focusing heavily on offering solutions said:

“Instead of working against the meat and dairy industry look at offering ideas to work with them to offer solutions to stop their harm”

After the speech many attendees came up to Heather to express their motivation as to how they had been inspired to actually go out and make a difference.

 

Here is a brief resume of some of their social media reports:

 

“We need more people in the world like her. Woohoo”

“Great talk Heather! Bold and full of humour. Hopefully see you next year"

“Thank you for all that you do. It was so great to meet you and thank you in person"

“You inspire me to change”

 

Jordan, the organiser said:

“Thank you to everyone for being part of an event that's going to be remembered for a long time to come!"

Vevolution Festival 2017

Well, what can we say about Vevolution? Lots of great things - what a well-rounded and informative festival - it is one of many innovative and inspirational plant-based events that the UK has to offer, and they will be making great strides in the future - we're sure of it. 

The day was jam-packed full of panel discussions, inspirational talks, delicious food and workshops from some of the most creative and brightest vegan thinkers. 

Heather Mills took to the Vevolution main stage alongside the likes of Sarah Bentley (Founder of Made in Hackney) Hilary Jones (Ethical Director at LUSH) Derek Sarno (Wicked Healthy) and Vevolution’s own Damien Clarkson amongst an array of other exceptional plant-based innovators. 

Heather was there to promote her plant-based company V-bites alongside some other giants taking over the plant-based world. In her speech she discusses the importance of making the switch to plant-based and vegan foods, that are not only healthy but delicious and nutritious, too.

There was a ProVeg stage which hosted athletes who live on a plant-based diet just like Heather, and there were conversations with local entrepreneurs, animal activists and advocates. 

There were many different panels ranging from environmentalists leading the “Let’s talk about the cow in the room” discussion to the fitness panel, “Powered by Plants” with athletes discussing and answering questions regarding their nutrition surrounding a plant-based sustainable and achievable diet. 

The Parenting Panel was extremely informative in “Raising the next generation” where parents such as Laura Pierson (Vegan Mama) gave tips and advice on a range of topics with first-hand experience of raising the next generation of vegans and activists.

Matthew Glover (Founder of Veganuary) also shared his thoughts on effective communication and strategic campaigning for the plant-based movement and discussed his new book “How To Go Vegan” which you can check out and pre-order here.

It’s December, and yes you should totally go and sign up for Veganuary, and it’s free. 

The founders of BOSH TV, Ian and Henry were also there. These TV Vegan cooks have a burning desire to show the world just how easy it can be to eat plants. Their inventive food creations reached more than half a billion people in their first year. They cooked up a storm at the show generating an ensemble of aromas tempting all to try their delicious recipes.       

                                    
Heather delivered an inspirational and eye-opening speech to a full house on the main stage. Heather spoke passionately about the plant-based industry, the marine eco system and the importance of buying British for an hour.

Following on from Heather’s talk there was some great feedback popping up on social media:

 “The way the media can portray someone can influence your perception. @heathermillsoffical is a force to be reckoned with! What a story, what an inspiration and what an amazing woman! Loved her talk and her openness and humour. Speaking from the heart. Gutted I didn’t chat to her after” - @Louisejaynesimpson

“Heather was mind-blowing – loved her talk” - @veryanwj

“I had no idea how much amazing stuff Heather Mills has done until I saw her talk at @vevolution. She has achieved so much for human and animal welfare. She also helped launch Winchester’s Centre for Animal Welfare last year, where I’m studying” - @moonlolly

Heather said:

“It was such a pleasure to be able to inspire people from all over the country, and it was so wonderful to talk to many of them following the discussion along-side so many advocates for this movement.”

Vbites is a company delivering excellent plant-based meat alternatives, and has been making great strides for over a decade. Heather discusses how the plant-based change in the 90's had been much more difficult because there weren't any alternatives, but she managed to change that, and this is when V-bites was born.

Heather then went on to say:

“Vevolution is one of my favourite organisations in the UK right now, and for them to bring so many young and talented folk into one room was a real success. Their workshops didn’t disappoint either, and they were hosted by young and budding geniuses in this movement such as Bright Zine – who created “faces in veganism” a collaborative piece bringing everyone at the festival together in a fun and dynamic way.”

Heather was interviewed for the official program / zine created in collaboration with both Bright X Vevolution. The zine is jam-packed full of exciting articles, tips and stories by people from all walks of life.

In the article, Heather discusses her journey and hopes for the future of the vegan movement with the founder of Vevolution, Damien.

She discusses the shift in the media from the 1990’s until now, and goes on to talk about the:

 “Evidence of improvement on health from scientists like Professor Colin Campbell who wrote the China Study and making VBites incredible meat, dairy and fish replacements to make the transition easier.”

This is a step in the right direction to changing mind-sets and implementing change.  

Heather also talks about her dynamic sporting achievements and her drive towards becoming the record holder for the world’s fastest disabled speed skier. 

“I like to challenge people’s perception of disability and show that being a vegan athlete is the healthiest, proving that at nearly 50 years old you can become a world record holder and ski at a speed of 166.84kph. Plus, I am an adrenaline junkie and love extreme sports.”

VBites wins The Great Moshimo Vegan Challenge for the 4th time

VBITES WINS THE GREAT MOSHIMO VEGAN CHALLENGE 2017

VBites, the largest UK plant-based food company owned by Heather Mills, has won The Great MOSHIMO Vegan Challenge (22nd November), beating stiff competition from some of Brighton’s top chefs.  

The annual event, which has earned Brighton’s pre-eminent Japanese restaurant MOSHIMO a prestigious PETA award for the promotion of plant-based eating, invites Brighton’s most celebrated chefs to MOSHIMO to create Japanese-inspired plant-based dishes to be voted on by customers.  

Amongst those competing was Michael Bremner from multi-award-winning 64 Degrees, and Alun Sperring from Chilli Pickle. Joining them in the competition were local restaurants La Choza, Silo, Cashew Catering, CanTina, Purezza, The Market, and Lucky Beach. 

MOSHIMO came a close second, with Purezza, the newly opened vegan pizza restaurant in Kemp Town, taking third place. The event, which has become an eagerly anticipated fixture for vegans and non-vegans alike, was set up by MOSHIMO in 2009 to demonstrate what its menu might look like in the future if fish stocks continue to deplete at the present rate. Over the years MOSHIMO has increased its vegan menu to become one of the best places to eat plant-based food in the city.  

From Wednesday 29th November 2017, MOSHIMO is launching 50% Vegan Wednesdays, where all plant-based food will be discounted by 50% for MOSHIMO Members (25% for non-Members). 

MOSHIMO IS FAMOUS FOR ITS FISHLOVE CAMPAIGN TO END OVERFISHING. 

MOSHIMO became known for its work in fish sustainability due to its high profile Fishlove campaign, a series of photographs featuring naked celebrities with fish which became one of the most successful campaigns ever to end over-fishing. The images, including those of Helena Bonham-Carter, Dame Judi Dench, Mark Rylance, Gillian Anderson, Julie Christie, Lizzie Jagger, Sir Richard Branson and Sir Ben Kingsley, were shown on the front covers of the media across the world many times over. They are credited as being instrumental in some big wins for ocean conservationists. 

Nicholas Röhl, co-owner with Karl Jones of the independent restaurant, said:                          

“We’re keen on promoting not just sustainable, but what we call restorative eating, a type of ethical consumption which aims not just to make the environment sustainable, but to actually restore and improve it inorder that we give back more than we take away. Scientists believe that the world’s oceans will be without fish by the middle of this century if fishing methods do not change substantially.” 

Karl Jones went on to say:                                 

“Demand for fish continues to grow, and the methods for catching fish remain unsustainable, so we’re keen to look at approaches to protect fish stocks for future generations. One of the ways we can do this is to increase the amount of plant-based food and decrease the amount of animal or fish protein on our plate.” 

VBITES WINS THIS EVENT FOR FOURTH TIME 

Heather Mills has led the Vegan movement for 25years. Having worked on fish, meat and dairy replacements for years, Heather created VBites in 2009. It now distributes over 85 products to 24 countries.  

Moshimo’s co-owner Karl Jones was inspired by Heather’s Vegan duck and cheeses enough to be the first non-vegan restaurants to offer meat, fish and dairy replacements.

VBites winning dish, their 4th since the event began, was an inspired Duck style gyoza dumpling with beetroot powdered garnish, micoherbs with ginger water dressing and homemade tare sauce. To further save the Marine eco-system Heather has produced an Algal Oil that will wipe out the need for Omega 3 fish oil capsules. Heather has been developing it for 10 years when she realised overfishing for oil is causing more devastation than the consumption of fish.

Food Business Expo 7th November 2017

Food Business Expo 7th November 2017

Heather Mills was invited by Food and Drink Business Europe to speak at Ricoh Arena, Coventry on 7th November 2017.

The event was not only attended by food and drink professionals from across Europe, but over 2,000 key decisions makers from the UK’s leading food processing, rentals and food service industries participated.

There were a range of seminars and panel discussions highlighting the key issues facing the industry.

Fifteen individual conferences dedicated to food, beverage and the manufacturing service were held, with over 250 speakers covering topics of interest currently facing the sector.

The event was a collection of a wide number of individual events with their own individual focus. By gathering delegates and advocates in one room, the Food and Drink Business Expo created a perfect environment for cooperation and networking.

Heather was invited and chose to speak about the current manufacturing market, plant based foods and the challenges facing the marine eco system.

DSC_0001.JPG

In her speech Heather discussed the importance of business manufacturing and delivering consumer advantage through nutrition, taste and function when promoting her Award winning 20 yr old Plant Based food company VBites.

Highlighting the fact that a vegan diet ultimately saved her life over two decades ago, when she explained in 1993. On Lorraine Kellys GMTV,  the nutritional benefits and results are only now being brought to light in the media.

After experiencing such a traumatic event first hand, Heather is now able to provide the drive and motivation to adapt a lifestyle that will benefit not only health, but the planet and long term eco-system as well.

Heather discussed the benefits of being plant-based, the effects that it has on the marine eco-system, and the fact that you can now take oil from algae and develop vitamins and oil capsules that will change the way we treat our planet. Ultimately this research and the findings will save fish, marine life and the eco-system that is slowly being wiped out by us humans. There isn't just a focus on marine life, Heather also discusses the other animals that are suffering every day - she spoke about the importance of saving as many sentient beings as possible. For example within the fashion industry, many companies are changing their views on using real fur for their products - it is a small step in the right direction that others need to then  follow.

As well as this, and a key focus on heath and nutritional benefits, she went on to encourage people to shop locally and to buy British products which will ultimately help the food and drink industry going forward.

Chris Sturman, Chief Executive of the Food Storage and Distribution Federation spoke on the main stage about the challenges we may face in the future.

He said:

“Europe has complex supply chains and at the moment  there is no clear plan from the Government. Shippers will need time to adjust to a new reality. For every hour of delay at customs, there is a £15,000 cost to road haulage and that is not sustainable. Shopping locally and supporting independent British businesses will be what drives the countries Food and Drink industry in 2018 and the future.”

The show itself covered top trends across the food manufacturing, retail and foodservice sectors, from improving traceability and consumer trust, transforming productivity, to highlighting the latest new ingredients and super foods currently making an impression on the industry.

London Food Tech Week

Heather Mills, founder and owner of VBites foods was invited by YFood and London Food Tech week to showcase her multi-award winning 100% plant based company by presenting a luncheon for 250 to the food industries invitees.

London Food Tech week is the largest week long showcase and collaboration of companies and trends forming the food ecosystem using technology.

The Hyper (R)Evolution Of Eating took place on Monday 30th October 2017 at Banking Hall situated in London’s Square Mile, looking out over the historic Bank of England.

Just before lunch was served, Heather gave a short, but detailed introduction to her innovative and leading, original meat, dairy and fish free brand, VBites.

Many companies are trying unsuccessfully to replicate VBites products resulting in a plant based product of poor quality.

It's easy to make great tasting vegetarian products but they are full of egg and milk. Making vegan meatless products taste real is an art...

Award winning tasty fish and chips with a tartare mayonnaise, mini quiche’s, sausages rolls, hoisin duck spring rolls as well as the soon to be launched, premium VBites beef style super burger were on the menu.

Many of those present at the luncheon were astonished at how incredible the food tasted and how the flavours and texture of the plant based alternatives were identical to ‘the real thing'.

Heather said:

I was really motivated to hear the comments of the attendees today during lunch. A lot of people came up to me during the lunch hour to say that they had no idea that plant based food could taste quite so amazing and look so much like real meat and fish.

I obviously love feeding the plant based lovers, but it really gives me satisfaction when the carnivores are blown away by our products and are asking me where they can buy VBites foods.

Without them loving it we will never save people, health, the animals and the environment on a grand and much needed scale.”

VBites currently has over 74 products in its plant based range and exports to 24 countries.
