About this episode
When Chicago attorney Joanne Molinaro went vegan in 2016, she worried that she wouldn’t be able to eat her favorite Korean dishes that she grew up with. It’s why she started the “ Korean Vegan ” blog. She initially focused on her recipes, but over time felt like she needed to connect cooking with personal stories about her family, heartbreak, and other ups-and-downs from her life. These stories have resonated on TikTok, where Molinaro has more than 2 million followers. Molinaro explains what shifted for her and tells host Jacoby Cochran about her favorite Korean dishes and vegan spots in Chicago.
