    Oops, forgot to mention...
    ...I forgot to point out that Beth gives the proceeds of the Kind Veggie Burrito cookbook sales to the Rex Foundation and SEVA. There you go, you gets and you gives! (www.kindveggieburrito.com) :^D

    The Kind Veggie Burritos Cookbook lives on!
    Hi, I first visited this forum last week just to see what it's about. Food, duh. Anyway, marye's first post directed me to the Kind Veggie Burrito Cookbook so I went to that website. The cookbook still exists (I'm getting two, one for me and one as a gift), and Beth (the author) asked about how I was referred to her site - she's interested because all her advertising is "word of mouth". I blamed it all on marye and izzie, of course, and I invited her to dead.net to shill her cookbooks for Christmas gifts. There you go, a little dead.networking has occurred. It felt fabulous, you should try it yourself. www.kindveggieburritos.com. Enjoy!

    Falafal Bill
    Theguy who led the Falafal Mafia was Falafal Bill. He was a guyof I would guess Lebanese descent that while not a deadhead was a major part of the lot scene. Alot of folks criticized him for being on tour but not a head. But let me tell you, he fed alot of heads for free, put alot of heads to work and was a real brother. He even bailed some other heads out at points. I actually miracled him once at a Jerry show in Hampton 91. (there was no one else to give the ticket to..) he at that point had been on tour for years but ad never been into a show...and I convinced himto give it a try. He went in for the first set and had a great time, of course he had to leave early and get back to work.I have heard that he runs a falafal stand on Venice Beach now but have not confirmed it myself. He was a true Road Dog. Does God look down on the boys in the barroom Mainly forsaken but surely not judged? Jacks, kings, and aces, their faces in wine Do Lord deliver our kind

    We ran outta t-shirts by the time we hit Foxboro in '87 so we decided to give fruit cups a try. We had a hotel room full of scraps, seeds, and peels, and sold out so fast the next day, we kept on with em for the next few shows. I had to head back home before the WV show, but my friends still laugh 'bout seeing a pick ur own bluberry stand, and spending the day picking em to the point of being late : ) The cups never suffered though! so I give you my eyes, and all of their lies please help them to learn as well as to see capture a glance and make it a dance of looking at you looking at me.......

    Kind Veggie Burrito Cookbook
    I just recently purchased the cookbook, and love it. I remember getting to know the folks next to me in the parking lot and ended up helping them make veggie burritos for good part of the afternoon. After that ended up seeing them several shows later. Let the good times roll (no punn intended) More recently I prepared the Shakedown Szechuan Noodles for a birthday cookout, and everyone loved the dish. I look forward to many more cookouts, camp trips, etc. with this cookbook. If anyone cares to chime in, I am looking for help on page 107 of the cookbook. The Pear-Apple Chutney calls for "4 pears, peel and chopped", but the line is repeated. Is this a duplicate line, or should there be another fruit there? Thanks in advance for your help. Many thanks to Beth and Dead Heads that contributed recipes.

Hey now! I hope y'all don't mind me posting again to discuss my cookbook with you.. but this year is the Kind Veggie Burritos Cookbook's 20th anniversary!! Because it's self-published, it'll be available as long as I am around. And remember every dollar that clears my expenses (mailing, printing) goes to the Rex Foundation and SEVA. AND -- it just got written up in "Munchies" magazine: https://munchies.vice.com/articles/deadheads-forever-changed-the-way-we… So check it out, and get yours in time for the Big Finale. We're still rolling our own (burritos!) and I'd love to hear from YOU. You can go directly to the KVB site by going to www.kindveggieburritos.com

Haha, i met freddy at richfield fall 93. He hung out at our campsite all night with a tank, just being kind and fun. We where all fairly newbies at the campsite. What a hoot!! He told us the story about the cops too. What a trip that was. Was one of my earliest cherished memories of the characters you meet on shakedown. Id been to several shows before that, but that time with freddy was when i got on the bus. No turning back since. He gets credit.

I know people sold a lot of foods over the years , I recall the last shows of summer tour in Ventura as the 1st time we actually saw food on the lot. Anyone remember people selling foods before that year? I do not and was on tour awhile at this point. I know that thee was no food being sold by heads in summer of 83. Food circus became more popular as years got up there more tour heads meant more stuff to sell. Hope someone knows answer to this one.
