J.D. and Mariia Goldschmidt (tofu_fit_guy and tofu_fit_girl on IG, Tofu Fitness on YouTube) and their daughter Mia are a fit and healthy vegan family of three living in New York City. We sat down and chatted about how and why they went vegan, what it’s been like raising their daughter vegan and how they’ve done it, what their diet is like, favorite restaurants in the city, how to be healthy and fit on a plant based diet and much more! They’re genuinely nice, awesome people and it was super fun chatting with them. Give them a follow on Instagram and YouTube, they put out great content!
Hope you enjoy it and thanks again guys!
