History

[edit]

When Moskowitz was in her thirites, she became "largely disconnected from the punk scene" of her youth, and was dividing her time "between a cubicle job and cooking in a vegan cafe...[she] was also watching a lot of cooking shows on TV."[5] Frustrated by the lack of vegan cooking shows, and inspired by the agency of punk rock, she decided to create her own cooking show.[5]

She took a class through BRIC Arts Media that took her through the basics of tv production. She then spent a few weeks developing a name for the show that would both sound "punk" but also reflect that she "wasn't feeling that punk anymore."[5] Next she gave an interview to Bust (magazine), asked her friend Terry Hope Romero to do the interview with her, and to co-host the first episode of the show (Romero stayed for the entire series). Her neighbor Denise had a television production company and took over all production aspects of the show. The cooking took place in Moskowitz's actual kitchen.[6][4]
