Hey everyone! I was wondering what your thoughts were on impossible/beyond meat burgers. Do you enjoy fake meat? Do you like or dislike these specific products? Do you have a problem with any of the ingredients? Prefer one over the other? I personally am a big fan of how they taste, however I...

Hi all. I was just wondering if its really reasonable to expect restaurants to serve both vegan and non-vegan food options. Would the "contamination" risk (e.g. foods touching each other) be too high? Is the food truly vegan if its served and prepared alongside non-vegan foods? As a vegan, is...

Hello! I'm based in the U.K and wondered if anyone knows of any place online that sells non-fortified Nutritional Yeast!?... Everywhere I look it seems to be fortified. I found one non-fortified brand but they're no longer in production it seems... (The fortified brands contain a fairly high...

Most the people I know think us vegans don't get to have those so awesome comfort foods but I have them all the time vegan style. Last night for dinner I made vegan Tomato soup with grilled vegan cheese sandwich. It took me less than 15 min. too cook and enjoyed every single bite. I do vegan...

Does lentil pasta have lysine in it? Cronometer says it doesn't and I can't fin anything online. I would think that is does since the only ingredient in the pasta is red lentil flour. (FYI: I'm using Barilla Red Lentil pasta) Thanks in advance.

Hi all, I guess my problem isn't specifically a vegan one, so sorry if it's wrong to post here, but I know the answers I'm going to get elsewhere will involve eating meat & dairy, and I just don't have the energy to deal with that right now. Basically, I'm usually a pretty healthy person - I...

Pretty much what the title says. I can't (for medical reasons) eat regular sugar so i love finding sugar free vegan stuff that's kinda like ice cream. I love the taste of the sugar free jello puddings but i'm wondering if they're vegan, Here are the ingredients for the vanilla pudding...

So sorry if this is the wrong form but I'd like to know if agave nectar is healthy? I can't eat maple syrup because I have a fructose intolerance and it makes me sick if I have maple syrup. BUT I've heard that agave nectar is terrible for one's health so I'm not sure what to do.

I use to have anorexia and now my parents are super sensitive about my eating and food choices. When I announced my intention to go vegan my parents threw a fit and said (I do quote) "No. Not happening."

I knew I wanted to make the change in my diet, not just for the safe of animals, but also for my own health. When I stopped eating meat, and daily products, I was doing the right thing for both my body and the environment. But.....is that all I needed to stop eating..? After my first 6 month...
