GOING VEGAN
TURNING VEGAN: EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW
Becoming vegan isn’t difficult – it just requires
a little thought and commitment. You can’t live on crisps,
cornflakes and soya milk – but with all that fabulous vegan
food out there, who would want to? Luckily, vegan food is the first
thing you see when you walk into most supermarkets – row upon
row of tasty, nutritious and attractive fresh vegetables. Vegan
products, meanwhile, are available everywhere - from tins of beans
at your corner shop to vegan roasts in your health food shop, they
are all around if you know where to look. If you’re in any
doubt, the vegan “bible”, the fabulous “Animal-Free
Shopper” (order online here...),
will answer your questions about what is vegan and what isn’t.
Dairy-free alternatives to milk and butter are on sale in every
big supermarket and many small ones and you don’t have to
give up chocolate, cakes, ice cream, beer, wine or any of the other
good things in life either. Our on-line guide, The
L-Plate Vegan, takes you through the whole process and if there
are any questions you can’t find the answers to here, just
email us at vegadvice@viva.org.uk
and we’ll answer them for you.

| What is a vegan? |
| A vegan is a person who eats and wears
no animal products of any kind. That means that as well as
avoiding
meat, we don’t eat or drink dairy products (cow’s
or goat’s milk or cheese) or eggs and honey. That also
means, of course, that we eat nothing which includes any
of
those products as an ingredient. We also wear no leather, fur,
silk or wool. |
