really interesting stuff thanx. It's been pretty much the same here (Ireland) in that the cities are way better for vegan options and products. I've found that if you ask for vegan products at your local shops they will often try to get them for you so it is worth trying. If they don't know there is a demand they will not get the products in.
I even found a new product the other day and the label made me laugh, it was an ex butcher family turned to vegan 'meat-like' products. They call themselves 'Sons of Butchers' a funny play on words (sons of bitches) hahaha. The label is hilarious.

Situation with veganism in Russia.
I can't even imagine what Mince Cheat tastes like!!
These taste really good. Tried them for the 1st time on the weekend…
Nice one Offgrid, it didn't hurt you did it to eat a plant-based burger? Good for you.
No… it was delicious. I’m a new convert to Vegetarianism… at least these Beyond Burgers.
I love fried tofu! Or any tofu...
Me too. Especially in my soup.
I need a good substitute for chicken now …. Maybe crispy Tofu ? I love the taste of fried Tofu.
If you want the real naughty stuff Linda McCartneys new 'chicken' nuggets are the best I've ever tried.
They look good huh! Yum. I've always made my own vegan rissoles but it's so easy just to buy them these days!
I was surprised when I was cooking them on the BBQ and I could see what would normally be blood oozing from the burgers… judging from the ingredients this is either beet juice or pomegranate … 2 foods I love. Much better than blood.
Haha that's so wierd!!
Why do "vegans" have to keep telling people what they are and what they eat? Question, not accusation, but it does seem very divisive when they all bang the "I only eat plants drum".......
Well try going to a party or restaurant and explaining to the host or waiter what you can't eat without using the word vegan which is much easier and explains it in one word. leaving allergies aside if a jew a muslim and a vegetarian or meat-eater came to my house they could happily eat anything from my fridge/cupboards. It's the only 'diet' that is all inclusive. So what would be the point of a meat-eater proclaiming he was a meat-eater unless it was to be 'divisive'.
I was even once told that a burger given to me was vegetarian only to be told years later they had lied (for a laugh). Vegans are specific about what they will put in their mouths so it's best to be forewarned. I find that if people don't like knowing that someone is a vegan it's because they have a guilt complex.
My point stands, why do you all have to tell people "online" what you eat? I care not what you put in your own mouth.
Then you are free to ignore us talking amongst ourselves. Vegans like to swap ideas and recipes, it's what we do.
Do they not do vegan cook books?
of course they do but it's always better to learn from real people, tips and stuff you don't get in books. I have a few recipe books but have rarely used them, I picked up most of my fave recipes from friends and from my own experiments which also will not be in any books so I pass them on too.
oh, butchers turning vegan, that's such an inspiring thing! This really gives hope that any person has a kind seed in him / her, even those who used to slaughter animals themselves.
It's happening a lot now. There was a famous dairyman in the uk who gave it up and converted to veg farming. He released his herd to a sanctuary. I know personally a lot of farmers hate their lives and would give it up in a shot if they could. They can get grants to help make the transition but it's not well known. Change is one of the hardest things for humans it seems, some would rather suffer than take a step outside their box.
yeah... but that's still inspiring!
Yes I think it's a case of the next generation just not wanting to carry it on. The UK dairy farmer was old tho and had suffered for years, his conscience just couldn't take it any more. There's a film about him you might like. He called it soul destroying. The film won a BAFTA.
