About Me

Welcome!

I’m Cynthia Kimura.  I want to make the vegan diet accessible to all.  I love that the vegan diet is the ultimate trifecta, it helps the animals, planet earth, and you.  I’m hoping to change the world… one meal at a time.

Cynthia Kimura - Cyn-fully Delicious Blogger

I began my veg journey in 1990, after reading “The Jungle”, by Upton Sinclair.  Through the years I eliminated red meat, chicken, fish, eggs, dairy, and finally cheese (that’s the biggie for most people)   … and eventually became vegan.

Tacos Al Carbon - Vegan Chick'n Street Tacos

In the beginning, there weren’t as many great vegan products to choose from.  Vegan food has come a long way since then … before Daiya, I couldn’t find vegan cheese that melts or tastes good.  I had to experiment with different veg meats and burgers to find the best tasting ones.  I learned about tweaks that you have to make so they really soar.  I found a vegan cream cheese that was horrible (I threw it away) and ones that weren’t too bad.   After much trials and tribulations, I came up with some winners.

I want to share the information that I wish I had when I started my vegan journey.  So I started this blog to give you some of my secret weapons that I've picked up over the years.

Many people have told me that it’s so hard to be vegan.  I’ve been giving out recipes and tips for years.  So, I decided to follow my passion and help people change their eating habits.

Vegan Chick'n Buffalo Tenders


I have been working towards my goal as a vegan chef and owner / creator of X-Marks the Spot, Polar Explosions, Taco Island, and Obasan’s Fusion Sushi.

I have a passion for making great cross-over vegan food.  Crossover vegan is a term for vegan food that appeals to the masses (that’s everyone, especially meat eaters).  So, whether you’re a hardcore, health conscious vegan who is craving a little junk food fix or a fast food junkie who wants to try a great tasting, healthier version or somewhere in between there's something here for you.

Here you’ll find proof that there’s more to vegan food than just salads and grains… it can be delicious and satisfying.  I’ve been experimenting on Craig, my former fast-food junkie and rock ‘n roll guitar addict boyfriend, for years.  He’s my inspiration and co-creative genius.  Food has to pass his seal of approval before I release it to the public.  I’ll be honest with you though, there will be times when the substitutes won’t cut it (so I’ll be working on them and let you know my findings).  But overall, I guarantee you’ll find food so good here … you won’t miss the meat.

Sea Salt Chocolate Shavings

The recipes on this blog are designed so you can use your creativity and tailor it to your own tastes.  Have fun in the kitchen!  I do have to admit that this might not be the healthiest of all food... but most Americans do love their junk food.  I try to give you a little healthier version without sacrificing taste or texture. 
Enjoy!
