What can a vegan eat, besides soy and veggies?

I saw the vegan menu at the Chinese restaurant, there wasn't much of a selection...I did see fake shrimp and chicken|||A lot, everything else that isn't animal products. Well most college campuses do not have much of a vegan selection unfortunately.





Fruits, vegetables, nuts (almonds cashews, hazelnuts, walnuts, etc), beans (black, pinto, baked, kidney, etc), seeds (flax, sunflower, pumpkin, sesame, hemp, etc), soy products (tofu, TVP, tempeh, fortified soy milk, miso, etc.) pulses, whole grains, quinoa, seiten, nutritional yeast, cereals, chickpea, seaweed, lentils, %26amp; vegetable, hemp, and flaxseed oils are the basics.





[Vegan versions] pastas, salad, sandwiches, tacos and burritos, quesadillas, enchiladas, lasagna, pizza, cake, cookies, burgers, etc.

There is all vegetarian Asian store in Oakland, CA that sells vegetarian versions of sea cucumber, beef tendon and rolled squid just to name a few.|||vegan menus at resturants can be very varied depending on where you are really, years ago you probably wouldn't have has much of a choice but as the number of vegans grow, the demand for the food grows too so now we are beginning to see vegan selections aswell as vegitarian on standard menus, along with fully vegan resturants which is great. so basically you just have to watch out for places in your area. you can do a search at vegdining for resturants in your area.





also, the vegan diet is alot more complex that you would think. i mean you can actually eat a whole lot more than you would expect, i mean at first when i heard of it i was skeptical because i thought i would be munching on salad leaves or something, but there is actually alot of wholesome, healthy food which you can eat. beans, lentils, seitan, tofu, there is so much to mention that i would probably be here for hours. also, you can still have treats whilst being vegan, you can still bake wonderful cakes which taste probably better than baking with dairy products - i swear! there is alot of leeway with it, and you never go hungry. |||you could try out allveggielinks.com as well as veggielinks.com for site links to vegan things i love them and try to use them because im trying to go vegan
