Veganism has a PR problem. It has a reputation which is 20 years out of date for offering little choice outside home cooking.

Nowadays, wherever there’s an animal-derived ingredient, there’s a vegetable-based equivalent.  Dairy-free dairy products; meat-free meats, sausages and burgers; ice creams, deserts, ready meals…  There’s loads of choice for vegans and everyone wanting to reduce meat and dairy consumption.  What’s not to like?

Non-animal options are so easy to find on the high street nowadays.  Check out our sections about choices for meat and dairy and where you can buy these.  You can also find out about wines and beers which contain no animal ingredients.
