Faux Gras Arrives in the Nick of Time for the Holidays!
Deliciously Decadent Vegan Interpretation of Fat-Laden Classic is the Ultimate Guilt-Free Addition to Your Holiday Spread
BROOKLYN, NY, December 19, 2009 – Discerning epicureans looking for an alternative to the unhealthy, cruelly-manufactured, yet guiltily satisfying foie gras need look no further. This week, The Regal Vegan unveils a delicious, cruelty-free version of the popular dish called Faux Gras™ at select Brooklyn fine food purveyors, including Park Slope’s Blue Apron Foods, D’Vine Taste and Back to the Land. The Regal Vegan founder and chef, Ella Nemcova will also offer limited free samples at The Greenpoint Food Market today from 12:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m, and Sunday in the above mentioned Park Slope stores.
“I first explored vegan cuisine as a way to eat healthier and lose weight,” said Ella Nemcova, founder and chef for The Regal Vegan. “Once I experienced the amazing effect it had on my body and overall well-being, it finally dawned on me. Why would I eat any other way if I could make vegan food ridiculously delicious? I have since set about creating alternatives to the most unhealthy and controversial foods. Why should eating decadently be reserved for the sinfully unhealthy? I am always so delighted when I hear ecstatic praise from vegetarians and especially non-vegetarians.”
Faux Gras is as perfect for breakfast on a slice of warm toast as it is for the holiday table or in a lunchtime sandwich with cucumbers and avocados. It works with crackers or crudité and makes a killer stuffed mushroom. Packed with all the flavor and smooth, spreadable texture of its traditional namesake, the goose and duck win out this year to “good-for-you” ingredients like lentils, walnuts and carmelized onions. In addition, Faux Gras is:
• 100% Vegan and Gluten-free
• Packed with Omega 3’s
• A great source of dietary fiber
• Low in cholesterol
“Delicious, nutritious and cruelty-free, Faux Gras had the power to change the world one bite at a time.”
Michael Parrish DuDell, Editor-in-Chief – VEGdaily.com
“Ella’s “faux gras” — like all of her food — rocks. Delicious, healthy and nutritious, and a bargain to boot. We’ve been been eating it for months now and it has changed our lives for the better.”
V. Zonana, Global Health Strategies

Join me for Open House at my Nutrition School!
As you know, I am a graduate of the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, where I received my training as a health counselor.
Each weekend we learned from inspiring leaders in the fields of nutrition and wellness like Andrew Weil, MD and Deepak Chopra.
We learned about how to make food and lifestyle choices to nourish our bodies and minds. And I got valuable tools to help launch my business–including marketing training, business cards and a website.
The program really changed my life and opened up incredible opportunities in my career. I think you would find great value in it as well.
The school is hosting its first ever Open House weekend and I’d like to invite you to attend and explore what the school has to offer.
At the Open House you’ll have the chance to:
* sample a live class at Avery Fisher Hall in Lincoln Center
* listen to inspiring guest speakers including a choice of Barry Sears PhD,
David Katz MD, Mark Hyman MD and business coach Robert Notter
* meet grads and ask questions in person
Space is limited so click here to register for a session the weekend of April 18-19.

Ladies Lotto interview and food coma
“I was introduced to Ella Nemcova of The Regal Vegan by a mutual friend and have been fascinated by her company ever since. Below are her answers to a few questions I had. Happy post-coma day everyone!
Tell us a little about yourself, what do you want the ladies to know?
I’d love the ladies to know that indulgence needn’t be bad for you. This is not junk food vegan – this is the kind of food nutritionists recommend to their clients. And I sincerely believe this kind food helps people live happier, healthier lives and is preventative medicine for much of what burdens our healthcare system.”
