If you’ve ever searched the vegan hashtag on Twitter, you’ll know that vegans have gained a bit of a rep being constantly mentioning that they’re vegan to their friends. That being said, some struggle on how to go vegan without it affecting their family relationships and friendships. Going vegan can mean lengthy conversations with friends and families about your choices and excessive questioning (including stupid questions like “but what about bacon!?”). But chin up, everyone! It doesn’t need to be super difficult. In this short guide, I’ll show you the best way to navigate some tricky territory with your friends and families regarding being vegan and keeping good friendships!
Navigating The “Why Would You Go Vegan?” Conversation When you choose to go vegan, it often comes with a conversation about being vegan with friends and family. Some common questions can get pretty frustrating when you go vegan, and we’ve come up with some great answers to help you navigate this conversation with the least tension possible Here are some good examples: Friend: “Why on earth would you go vegan?” You: “Veganism is the best way I can reduce my carbon footprint. It’s also less cruel to animals. For me, it’s the best choice I can make”. These responses are perfect for when you become vegan and get a bunch of annoying questions from you’re friends and family because they are backed up with hard evidence.
How To Eat Out With Friends As A Vegan Sometimes going vegan can mean that you can’t go to your favourite restaurants with your friends anymore – if the restaurant doesn’t have any vegan options. But honestly? This happens so rarely. It’s barely an issue. Even KFC has vegan options! (Check out our guide to the best vegan restaurants in the UK here!) If there really aren’t any vegan options on the main menu – why not try ordering two or three sides instead of a main meal? Olives, vegetable soup, roasted veggies or breadsticks are often vegan and are common menu items. See? You can still be vegan and maintain your friendship groups traditions of going out to eat together pretty much anywhere! Tyne Chease is another cheese delivery service. They offer a range of some of the finest cheeses to display for a lovely brunch. The cheese from this shop is a bit more luxurious and presentable, while you can use the vegan cheese shop for cooking.
