The history section of this website is drawn from a body of legacy content originally compiled by John Davis, former manager of the International Vegetarian Union. It represents his curation of historical material, and in places includes passages written by him directly. Over the years, the IVU website has migrated between several different hosting servers. In the course of these migrations, a number of PDF files were unfortunately lost, and **some links to PDF documents may no longer function**. Where this is the case, we have chosen to leave the original link text in place, as it may itself carry information of historical value. - Hits: 1829 ### Vegan Recipes - [![VEGAN RICE COOKED WITH JUJUBE FRUIT](https://ivu.org/media/zoo/images/th10%20225_20d3ada0271472713aeeb918c5a1cab1.jpg "VEGAN RICE COOKED WITH JUJUBE FRUIT")](https://ivu.org/vegan-recipes-around-the-world/vegan-food-academy/front-page/item/vegan-rice-cooked-with-jujube-fruit.html "VEGAN RICE COOKED WITH JUJUBE FRUIT") #### [VEGAN RICE COOKED WITH JUJUBE FRUIT](https://ivu.org/vegan-recipes-around-the-world/vegan-food-academy/front-page/item/vegan-rice-cooked-with-jujube-fruit.html "VEGAN RICE COOKED WITH JUJUBE FRUIT") [Breakfast and brunch](https://ivu.org/vegan-recipes-around-the-world/vegan-food-academy/front-page/category/breakfast-and-brunch.html) [Main course](https://ivu.org/vegan-recipes-around-the-world/vegan-food-academy/front-page/category/main-course-for-lunch-and-dinner.html) [Rice](https://ivu.org/vegan-recipes-around-the-world/vegan-food-academy/front-page/category/rice.html) [Vietnam](https://ivu.org/vegan-recipes-around-the-world/vegan-food-academy/front-page/category/vietnam.html) -
