What do you eat then?
Alex Bourke, our expert media contact says this when asked what we vegans eat:
Vegan cuisine is the richest and most diverse in the world, because we take the healthiest ingredients and dishes from every country in the world, such as
- Chinese stir fries
- tempeh and satay from south east Asia
- tofu and brown rice from Japan
- Mexian enchiladas and tortillas
- Italian pasta and other Mediterranean dishes using olive oil and lots of fresh veg
- Middle Eastern hummus and falafels
- and of course stacks of Indian curries
As a vegan you are mercilessly spoilt for choice. Instead of a few animals, we have thousands of ingredients and recipes to choose from.
And before you get asked, you know you will be, so have a think about some of the nicest things you've eaten recently and tell them about those and decide how to describe them in luscious terms.
