Ames Radwan


Ames Radwan is a graduating senior and Editor-at-Large of the Opinion and Food sections.

They are incredibly grateful to TMS for having given them an amazing and accepting community of friends and fellow writers, a newfound love for food writing that will extend beyond their college years, an opportunity to stand on their soapbox in the Opinion section for four years and a knowledge that the Oxford comma isn't always right.

Despite looking like regular mac and cheese, this Daiya Cheddar Mac & Cheeze is not only vegan, but also gluten-free --- and delicious!

The voyage of Veganuary

When a friend of mine first brought up going vegan for January back in the fall exam week, I decided to take the plunge and say yes. This is how my Veganuary went...
