AS Program Board Presents… Like So, Like That with Tabitha Brown on Friday, July 10th at 7 PM (PST). Join us for a LIVE cooking demo and Q&A with the queen of vegan cuisine!
This event is free and closed to UCSB students.
Tabitha Brown literally and metaphorically satisfies the hunger of millions with her unique approach to vegan food and her wholesome, comedic personality. The North Carolina born actress, vegan lifestyle personality, mother, and wife, has amassed over 6 million followers across platforms– 2 million of which was acquired in 40 days on TikTok. Whether you’re looking for a new recipe, some motherly wisdom, or just want to melt away to the most soothing voice on the internet, Tabitha Brown has you covered.
Brown’s unique journey to veganism highlights the intersection of personal discovery, food, and health. In 2016, Brown’s daughter encouraged her to watch the Netflix documentary “What the Health”, which inspired Brown to start a 30 day vegan challenge. This challenge turned out to be the answer to all of Brown’s prayers. 10 days into the challenge, she found her nineteen month long chronic neck and head pain had completely disappeared. As she began sharing her story and vegan recipes online, she turned it into a lifestyle and found happiness in the ability to turn being comfortable in her own skin into a career doing something she truly loves.
Also known as America’s mom, Brown’s delicious, creative, yet simple recipes, sautéed with compassionate messages, and sprinkled with a pinch of humor, attract a large following that finds comfort in the ‘auntie they never had.’ Though the term “vegan” often polarizes audiences, Brown reinvents the idea of veganism, demonstrating that it can be accessible and accommodating for anyone.
