| Airline vegan food review Copy of what I just sent to Delta: THIS IS FOR THE CATERING COMPANY FOR DELTA #1551 MSP-LAS Thank you for offering a "Vegetarian (Pure)" VGML meal on this flight. However, if I wanted to eat a bland, boring, insipid "grilled veggie sandwich", I could have brought it onto the plane from any number of restaurants in the airport. You should be ashamed of offering this "meal" in first class. Lettuce on a plain whole wheat bun with 2 slices each of zucchini and yellow squash topped off with a slice of grilled red onion. Dry, no condiments, nothing else. "Salad": 10 cherry tomatoes cut in half along with maybe 10 quarter round slices of cucumber covered in some greasy oil (dressing?). I guess the 2 slices of cantaloupe and pineapple were supposed to be "dessert" Pathetic! Here's an idea: Take whatever the non-vegan meal is and make it vegan. So, instead of the ham and cheese sandwich offered to others, you could use vegan ham slices (they exist - go shopping at Whole Foods to see the variety of manufacturers) and vegan cheese slices (such as Daiya). Other choice was some sort of white rice and chicken dish. VERY easy to veganize: brown rice (using vegetable broth) and either Gardein or Beyond Meat grilled "chix" strip/breast. See, no need to use the grilled veggies in either of these entrees. May I suggest to the "chef" in the company that they get a vegan cookbook and use those recipes instead of using the brain-dead, stuck in the '50s ones I got last night for "dinner". I refuse to eat grilled veggie sandwiches in restaurants, and I certainly didn't eat it on the plane. I had a bag of the cranberry blueberry crunch things, about 30 little bags of peanuts and the fruit slices instead. Post Date: 01/03/16, Replies: 2 | ||
| Good Vegan restaurants in Chicago? I'm planning a trip to Chicago with a friend for sometime in May. However, I'm a vegan and I've never been to Chicago and would really like to experience some of its great vegan cuisine. Do any of you have suggestions? Any favorites? Also, are there any vegan food carts around? I doubt there are, but we're looking to save a lot of time so would prefer some quick options as well. Thanks! (: Post Date: 04/09/15, Replies: 2 | ||

| Thailand Vegetarian Festival The Thailand vegetarian festival always falls on the first days of the ninth Chinese lunar month. While celebrated across Thailand the centre & most spectacular display of the festival is Phuket. Firewalking, body piercing and other acts of self mortification undertaken by participants acting as mediums of the gods, have become more spectacular and daring as each year goes by. Men and women puncture their cheeks with various items including knives, skewers and other household items. It is believed that the Chinese gods will protect such persons from harm, and little blood or scarring results from such mutilation acts. This is definitely not recommended for the faint hearted to witness (see pics in this link). www.phuket.com/festival/vegetarian.htm Post Date: 08/10/15, Replies: 2 | ||
| survival traveling in Texas I travel the entire state of Texas for work. I'm not happy with Burger King's Veggie Burger (no taste and not vegan), but I used to believe that was all there was on the road - until my wife found the Whatavegan. Whataburger is a huge chain of fast food stores around the southern US. They can make a Whataburger with hash brown sticks in place of the meat patty. Leave the mayo and cheese off and this is about as vegan as it gets out away from the cities. I get storage looks, but they usually do their best to take care of me. Does anyone have any other ideas for keeping vegan on the road? Post Date: 11/05/15, Replies: 2 | ||

| Staying in Chiang Mai? Hi friends, we're heading off to Chiang Mai on Saturday and are wondering on suggestions of where to stay.

| Omg Georgia! I'm moving from California (international cuisine heaven) to Georgia (need I say more?) & I have this very large (& justifiable) fear that I'll never eat healthy again! Alternatively, I guess I could start my own restaurant, but it would definitely have to cater to Southern tastes, at least in the beginning. (This is assuming that it's even possible to get one off the ground.) Ideas? Post Date: 11/06/15, Replies: 2 | ||

| Humane Animal Rescues/Sanctuaries in USA Is anyone aware of a website that lists humane animal rescues/sanctuaries in the USA (eg. Popcorn Park and Sanctuary in NJ)? I'm driving from the east coast to the west coast this summer and I would like to stop at any that are along my route to support them, but I'm having a hard time finding them. If not, could you list any humane rescues/sanctuaries that you are aware of? Thanks! Post Date: 05/10/16, Replies: 2 | ||

| Vegan Hi all, I joined here because it seems to be the most active forum. I've only been vegan for about four months, but it's the best life change I've made. I feel physically and mentally healthier, and it feels great knowing that every meal I eat contributes to the ending of this world. I'm very lucky to live in a very [url="www.vegjauntsandjourneys.com/"]vegan-friendly[/url]city and community as well, it's been a great influence for persuading others into becoming "www.vegjauntsandjourneys.com/">veganl as well. I hope to meet more people and gain a little more knowledge here! Post Date: 12/12/16, Replies: 2 | ||
| Vegan travelling in Central/South America I am wondering if anybody has travelled through Central or South America as a vegan. I spent years there, but that was before I was a vegan. I am wanting to go back again, but as I remember, it didn't seem like such a veggie-friendly place, especially the more off-the-beaten-track places. Any good tips? I'm guessing Costa Rica is the easiest. Post Date: 02/13/08, Replies: 1 | ||

| Free Food in Malacca, Malaysia I was in Malacca a few years ago and stumbled upon a wonderful vegetarian restaurant that cooked up 3 meals a day, and the food was all free (you are encouraged to donate whatever you like). The owner was really nice, and the food was good. I didn't know about HappyCow at the time, so I didn't add it, and it still isn't on this site. Have any of you been there and know the details? Or do you think it is better not to add it so the place isn't bombarded? Post Date: 11/18/07, Replies: 1 | ||

| Vegan Food in Tel Aviv Hi everyone. I'm visiting my family in Tel Aviv soon and non of them have any idea about vegan food, and not much about veggi food in fact.

Anyone have any up-to-date info on this? It looks like there's not a health food shop either :? Thanks! Post Date: 01/24/08, Replies: 1 | ||

| Vegan cruise Forwarded on by someone at the vegan society. --------------------------------------------- Should anyone fancy a cruise but be worried about the catering, I can highly recommend the first cruise I went on in March 2008. I enjoyed it so much that I have booked for Feb.2009. It is a holistic cruise and the catering for over 1,000 participants was vegan macrobiotic. It has been running annually now for about 6 years with numbers increasing each year. It is on the Costa ship, Costa Fortuna.
