Grocery shopping vegan is rough. You read labels constantly and have to make sure there isn't an obscurely naming insect/animal-derived byproduct in any food you eat. My friend Melissa gave me a small, but neat packet containing easy-to-make vegan recipes. I decided to make the mac un-cheese, which needed nutritional yeast. Couldn't find it for the life of me. Damn you, Outpost! But eventually, I found it in the bulk foods section. Relief.
I would have a picture of what I bought but I already put everything away, but a list can't hurt
- Soy yogurt (strawberry and peach)
- Vegan margarine
- Vegan cheese
- Tumeric (it's a popular spice in a lot of recipes)
- Fruition, vegan granola-esque bars. You'd be surprised how many bars aren't.
- Chapstick (No Burt's Bees for two weeks :/)
- Nutritional yeast
- Kashi Strawberry Fields cereal
If I missed anything else, salty me. But that's roughly $39. Maybe if I have time down the road, I'll compare dairy prices versus the non-dairy ones.
Oh, and from Sendik's, I bought myself Soy ice cream bars. Yum yum! Dessert tonight?
