In Oregon, there\u2019s a through line from 19th century saints to 21st century sinners. They both sought salvation, of a sort, by eschewing meat.<\/p>\n

It was in Portland, in the 1890s, that Seventh-day Adventists opened one of the first vegetarian restaurants in the country, in line with their belief that a Godly diet was one of fruit, vegetables, legumes and grains.<\/p>\n

It was also in Portland, more than hundred years later, that Johnny Diablo Zukle opened a vegan strip club, now in its 18th year.<\/p>\n

\n

50 States, 50 Fixes<\/strong> is a series about local solutions<\/a> to environmental problems. More to come this year.<\/p>\n

\n

Portland, highly praised for its food scene, is a hot spot for vegans, who don\u2019t eat dairy or meat. The maker of Tofurky, the vegan holiday roast, is headquartered nearby, as is Bob\u2019s Red Mill, global purveyor of artisanal whole grains.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
