Hi Matt2584

I will also try to watch 'The Game Changers' documentary when it comes out.

It looks good and it looks like it could inspire many more people to go vegan, which I think, is a good thing indeed :).

Doe sit not tempt you to make the change yourself?

Well, if I was the owner of this house that I live and Ihad to do the grocery shopping myself then I probably would fo completely vegan.

But I could probably be a rubbish vegan still because I may end up eating foods that had dairy in it...... actually, 2nd thoughts. I know I couldn’t make a good vegan because I still eat some meats :).

I just had a pizza that was topped with bacon.

If veganism became much more widespread and bacon was replaced with a plant-based food that tasted very very similar then I may be able to go completely vegan.

There is a restaurant near me that does freak shake desserts and they are dairy.

I usually have a vegan/veggie-based meal and then I would finish it off with a dairy-based dessert :).

That is how flexitarian I can be :).

You can buy vegan bacon - I think I've seen it in Tesco.

Maybe you can try a veganuary sometime, then see if the diet works for you.

I have had some vegan bacon once before, it was quite nice.

I’ll keep that in mind about Tesco possibly selling some, thanks.

There is a café near me which is like a proper greasy spoon café.

I and my family sometimes go there every now and then and have a slap up cooked breakfast. Very un-vegan and is probably one of the reasons why I couldn’t fully go vegan.

But if and when veganism grows and grows maybe this café might replace their meat-based dishes with plant-based dishes.

I’ve got the feeling though if plant-based foods took over this café would no longer exist. I think the café, as it’s been brought up on eating and selling meat it is going to be a hard change for them and the other customers that go there.

You might have a vegan cafe near you, if you look? A lot of places are starting to introduce new options too, so you can just look a bit further afield? If it's really the change you think the world needs, then changing your habits a little bit just now would send the message to the greasy spoon that they should change with the world.

I do know a couple of vegetarians who will give in and eat a bacon roll once a year or so too.

Looks interesting. I hope they will give decent nutritional advice to make sure people don't miss out on any micronutrients too :)

Not what you're looking for?
