Chicagoans Beat the Heat with Delicious Vegan Ice Cream

Nathan Runkle July 27, 2011

On Monday, Chicago MFA volunteers helped passersby cool off from the July heat with free samples of delicious Temptation vegan ice cream made by Chicago Soydairy. Hundreds of people were given a taste of veganism, along with a copy of MFA’s eye-opening 25 Reasons to Try Vegetarian brochure, outlining the many benefits of plant-based living!
