i’m sure with the influx of people we have enough of a community for this to be a thread, or at least people who are interested in veganism and vegetarianism and incorporating aspects of the diet/lifestyle into their current life. so yeah, pop off! share your struggles, experiences, good times, recipes, all that kind of stuff
As I said on !vegan@lemmy.ml, I would very much classify myself as an aspiring vegan. I don’t eat meat at all and try and avoid dairy & eggs when I can, but takeaway, family gatherings and restaurants are basically impossible here in eastern Europe. Most places these days have vegetarian options at least, and my parents are fine with making sure I have something without meat, but EVERYTHING has cheese in it. I never realized quite how all-pervasive cheese is until I tried to avoid it, and I’ve given up hope of any vegan options that I don’t cook myself.
