However, it's lockdown (again!), it's January (again!) and we need something to make us smile. Veganuary 2021 is well underway and there are so many new products and more businesses offering delivery to get us through the dark January nights of lockdown.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-b-bDruBqKa8/X_2Gv8z05mI/AAAAAAAAKlA/2E7HxGoKGycQDU_ylhmOIXPEcdI5N9CqACLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/IMG_5514.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1365" data-original-width="2048" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-b-bDruBqKa8/X_2Gv8z05mI/AAAAAAAAKlA/2E7HxGoKGycQDU_ylhmOIXPEcdI5N9CqACLcBGAsYHQ/s320/IMG_5514.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-_R_6yUr7uyA/X_2Gwf3Fm2I/AAAAAAAAKlE/TBWlc1vZ2EAfVvN1OFQ2E_lE-LXSpapygCLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/IMG_5520.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1365" data-original-width="2048" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-_R_6yUr7uyA/X_2Gwf3Fm2I/AAAAAAAAKlE/TBWlc1vZ2EAfVvN1OFQ2E_lE-LXSpapygCLcBGAsYHQ/s320/IMG_5520.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p>We moved to Shropshire last summer and since moving here, we have gravitated towards <a href="https://www.planet-doughnut.co.uk/"><span style="color: #04ff00;">Planet Doughnut</span></a> who have local branches in Telford and Shrewsbury, both of which we have visited several times, in between lockdowns and tried several of their vegan doughnut offerings.

<br />
It's been a long time. Most of my days now are spent running our vegan streetfood business - <a href="http://www.thevegangrindhouse.co.uk/" target="_blank"><span style="color: lime;">The Vegan Grindhouse</span></a>. If you don't know who we are, click on the link and go and find out! We travel the UK selling handmade vegan burgers at markets, festivals, concerts, weddings, parties, events and more. We are available to hire as well.<br />
<br />
Well today, I had a very rare day off, due to an event being cancelled and so I thought I'd do a new recipe for the blog as it has been too long.<br />
<br />
A few days ago, I was sent a hamper of Free From items from the lovely people at Sainsbury's to try out and let them know what I thought, so I decided the best way to use them would be bake something, as baking is one of my favourite things to do!<br />
<br />
Here are the items Sainsbury's sent me to try:<br />
<br />

All of the items were clearly labelled vegan which was great and the almond milk is fortified with calcium and vitamin D. I decided to make a strawberry oat bake with chocolate and have a slice with a glass of the milk. Perfect afternoon treat. This item is gluten free also.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Here is my recipe (Makes 6-8 slices):</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
50g light brown soft sugar</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
125g gluten free plain flour (I used Dove's Farm plain flour)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
1/2 teaspoon bicarb of soda</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
100g gluten free oats (I used Deliciously Free From Pure Oats by Sainsbury's)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
1 teaspoon vanilla extract</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
1 tablespoon golden syrup</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
125g vegan butter alternative (I used Pure)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
1/2 jar jam (I used Sainsbury's Taste the Difference Strawberry Conserve)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
100g vegan chocolate (I used Deliciously Free From Choc Bar by Sainsbury's)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Method:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Preheat the oven to 180C/160C (Fan)/Gas Mark 4</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Grease and line a 20cm square cake tin</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
In a mixing bowl stir together the sugar, flour, bicarb, and oats until combined.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Then add the vanilla extract and golden syrup and stir through the dry mixture.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Rub the butter alternative into the dry mixture with your finger tips until the mixture resembles crumble.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Pour three quarters of the crumble mix into your prepared tin and press down into the tin with the back of a metal spoon.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Spoon the jam onto the base and spread all over with a pallet knife.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Sprinkle the remaining crumble on top of the jam and press in lightly.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Bake in the centre of a preheated oven for 40 minutes until golden brown.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Remove from the oven and leave in the tin on a wire rack for an hour to completely cool.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Next, break the chocolate into pieces and place into a glass bowl over a saucepan of just boiled water. Stir until the chocolate has melted. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Drizzle the melted chocolate over the top of the strawberry bake and pop in the fridge for 20 minutes until set.</div>

Sorry for the long blogging break. <a href="http://thevegangrindhouse.co.uk/" target="_blank"><span style="color: lime;">The Vegan Grindhouse</span></a> has taken over most of my waking hours of late and we have just returned from a lovely holiday in sunny Devon. However, I am back and blogging. This week TOV is a new frozen product from Sainsbury's. It is a Roasted Pepper Arrabbiata pasta dish which is vegan and wheat/gluten free. The pasta comes in a separate sachet from the arrabbiata sauce and you can oven cook or microwave. The meal was nice, not too spicy with a good texture and flavour, but would have been easy to make from scratch or just as quick to use a jar of sauce and some gluten free pasta. This ready-meal is pricey at £2.50, however for a quick frozen meal which is gluten and wheat free as well as vegan, it provides another option.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Fox's have reformulated their <a href="http://www.foxs-biscuits.co.uk/#kids" target="_blank"><span style="color: lime;">Party Rings</span></a> recipe to get rid of the animal products and animal-derived colourants and they are now completely animal-free! Yay!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
These Party Rings Minis bags are on offer at <a href="http://www.bmstores.co.uk/" target="_blank"><span style="color: lime;">B&M Bargains</span></a> at the moment for 89p. The new packets are labelled as suitable for vegetarians on the front and back. There may be old stock in some shops which are not suitable so please check the packets before you buy. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I contacted the company to check the vegan status of the products and they assured me there are no animal-derived ingredients, however they do manufacture biscuits which contain dairy at the same facility so they would not label them as vegan due to cross contamination/allergy risks.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Enjoy reliving your youth!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A few weeks ago, I was lucky enough to be invited to London to try out the new all-vegan days at <a href="https://www.tibits.ch/en/restaurants.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: lime;">Tibits Restaurant</span></a>. Tibits is an all-vegetarian restaurant on Heddon Street, just off Regent Street in Central London. A few times a month, they have an all-vegan day at the restaurant, which means all of their buffet showboat is full of yummy vegan starters, salads, mains and desserts as well as an extensive drinks menu including fresh juices and vegan beers.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We arrived at the restaurant and were shown to our seat by the manager who was a lovely lady, full of useful information on the food and drinks and we were seated under a beautiful chandelier.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

We had some soft drinks and cashew nuts whilst we were getting settled and then went up to look at the impressive buffet range.</div>

Tabouleh, couscous, breaded tofu escalopes, ratatouille and lots of tasty vegetables.<br />
<br />
Mr Vox had the following:<br />
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Pizza, crusty bread roll, salad, tofu slices, onion rings, guacamole and falafal. We both really enjoyed our meals, they were fresh and tasty and full of flavour. There was a good range of dishes to mix and match to suit all diets, including gluten-free and raw vegan.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
You choose your items and then take your plate to be weighed at the till, the food is charged by weight to reduce food waste often associated with buffet restaurants.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Next we had some more drinks, Mr Vox went for a vegan beer by Brew Dog and I had a fresh Carrot, Apple and Ginger juice which was super refreshing.</div>

This yummy samosa is available in the kiosk section of Waitrose, is great as a delicious snack on the run and is vegan-friendly too! They cost £1.35 each and can be frozen. The packaging is recyclable and they can be eaten hot or cold.</div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Veggie Lounge in Wolverhampton is a small vegetarian fast food cafe/takeaway with delivery service, which offers to make most of the menu vegan upon request. The range of food is similar to a regular fast food takeaway - burgers, pizza, chips, wraps, salad etc but this takeaway uses all mock meats, mock fish etc.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We ordered a "Chicken" Tikka pizza for delivery with vegan mozzarella. The order was simple and easy and they were happy to make the pizza vegan for us. The delivery did take a little over an hour as they were very busy that evening. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When the pizza arrived it was tasty, the mock meat was nicely spiced and there were plenty of veggies and cheese on the pizza with a nice crispy base. We ordered mid-week and they do a mid-week special - any large pizza for £6.99, which was a good deal. There is a minimum order of £10 for delivery and they deliver anywhere in the Wolverhampton area.</div>

They are microwave pouches of rice, vegetables and seasoning which can be steamed in a few minutes and eaten as a snack or as a side dish with a meal. They are available in most supermarkets for around £1.75 but are often on offer for £1 or 2 for £2, in the freezer department. They contain no artificial colours, flavours or preservatives and are great for a quick meal when you don't have time to cook.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
A few weeks ago the lovely people behind The London Tea Company sent me a huge box of teas to try out and to review for my blog.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This is an ethical tea company which has a fully certified Fair Trade policy which covers the entire range. They have quirky modern packaging, bright colours and a huge range of teas from classics to the more unusual.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As well as the Fair Trade certification, they have robust environmental policies including reducing water usage and carbon footprint and are certified by Viva and The Vegetarian Society. They use no GMO products or by products and even distribute short dated stock to food banks and homeless charities. This is a brand which really wears its heart on its sleeve, which we love at Vegan Vox Blog!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The teas themselves are flavourful and there really is a tea for every mood. They have black teas, green teas, white teas, herbal teas and Rooibos teas. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-b7KzWqyCFkw/U-NBgacLLlI/AAAAAAAAGyQ/gAJKAy8oCEg/s1600/2014-06-25+14.18.33.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-b7KzWqyCFkw/U-NBgacLLlI/AAAAAAAAGyQ/gAJKAy8oCEg/s1600/2014-06-25+14.18.33.jpg" height="240" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
These were our favourites, the London Breakfast is a classic breakfast tea, perfect with almond milk. For a refreshing summery tea, try chilled Peach & Rhubarb over ice.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-1qZMLXWfJ8I/U-NBcD49e1I/AAAAAAAAGyE/80xRLH1dB34/s1600/2014-06-25+14.16.19.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-1qZMLXWfJ8I/U-NBcD49e1I/AAAAAAAAGyE/80xRLH1dB34/s1600/2014-06-25+14.16.19.jpg" height="240" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Mr Vox particularly enjoyed this Sencha Green Tea, which he enjoyed with a twist of lemon. Other favourites are the fragrant Vanilla Chai and fruity Lemon & Ginger.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If you haven't tried The London Tea Company products yet, you can purchase directly from their website <a href="http://londontea.co.uk/shop/" target="_blank"><span style="color: lime;">here</span></a>. The London Breakfast is currently on sale too.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A huge thanks to The London Tea Company for sending lovely samples and for being a refreshingly (pun intended) ethical company who genuinely care about their tea, their workers, the environment and their brand.</div>

It is always rare in a mainstream supermarket to find a gelatine-free jelly, and then when you occasionally do, they colour them with animal products making them unsuitable for vegans - boo!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Therefore, I was pleasantly surprised to find this jelly is Sainsbury's which contains real fruit and no animal products and is labelled as vegan - yay! Be warned they are high in sugar though.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
These jellies can be found for sale in the kiosk area of the store by the take away sandwiches, newspapers and cigarettes. They are currently on offer 2 for £2 and they are so refreshing in this summer heat.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I was approached recently by the lovely people from CAT (The Centre for Alternative Technology) in Wales regarding testing out a brand new food app called Laura's Larder. The purpose of this app is to make us more aware of the impact of what we choose to eat on the environment. Even vegan diets high in processed foods and imported goods can have a significant carbon impact. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
You use the app by inputting your meals for a week, portion sizes, country of origin etc. Once you have completed a week, you can go to the stats section, where it will show you the environmental impact in terms of emissions for your diet. The app will then show the you highest impact foods you eat and suggest how you can reduce your impact. The app also analyses the health impact of your diet and warns you if you are low in essential dietary requirements or where you should cut down.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This is a great app to sit down with children and show them the impact of food choices on the environment. It would work well in a classroom or home environment and is very family friendly and educational whilst remaining fun and interactive as well.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The app is available via the CAT website now at <a href="http://www.cat.org.uk/"><span style="color: lime;">www.cat.org.uk</span></a> </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So go and try it out and find out what impact your diet is having on our planet.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

These new sharing bag size crisps from McCoy's are for sale in Tesco at the moment for £1.99. They were recently on offer for 2 for £2 and they come in three flavours - all of which are vegan-friendly:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Sizzling BBQ Chicken</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Chargrilled Steak & Peri Peri</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Sea Salt & Black Pepper</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I tried the BBQ Chicken and the Steak flavours and they were both delicious, full of flavour, really crunchy and great for parties and BBQs.</div>

<br />
<br />
Here is my recipe:<br />
<br />
125g Hard Stork in the foil packet<br />
60g Caster Sugar<br />
180g Plain Flour<br />
1 Tbsp Vanilla Extract<br />
pinch of salt<br />
<br />
Preheat the oven to 170C fan/190C conventional.<br />
<br />
Cream together the sugar, vanilla and margarine until smooth, then sieve the flour into the creamed mixture, add the salt and work together until in forms a soft dough.<br />
<br />
Roll the dough out until it is around 1/2 inch thick and cut into fingers, circles, stars, hearts or whatever you like. Sprinkle with caster sugar and prick with a fork.<br />
<br />
Chill in the fridge for 30 minutes.<br />
<br />
Bake in the oven for around 16-18 minutes until golden brown and then transfer onto a cooling rack.<br />
<br />
Variations on the recipe include adding dark chocolate chips into the dough before rolling, adding chopped cherries or raisins to the dough before rolling or after baking drizzle with lemon or vanilla glace icing.<br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A couple of weeks ago the lovely people at <a href="http://www.vivesoy.co.uk/" target="_blank"><span style="color: lime;">Vive Soy</span></a> sent me a mixed crate to sample and review. The range of soy milks is great with Vanilla, Unsweetened, Chocolate, Light, Sweetened and Cappuccino flavours available. The milks are fortified with calcium and vitamins A & D and are suitable for vegans.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I decided to experiment with the different milks so I could recommend the perfect partner for the milk.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Here are my findings:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<u>Vanilla</u></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-iSHD8IUlj2E/U75CIBJRgII/AAAAAAAAGnc/4rtmrhUHun0/s1600/2014-06-26+09.06.56.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-iSHD8IUlj2E/U75CIBJRgII/AAAAAAAAGnc/4rtmrhUHun0/s1600/2014-06-26+09.06.56.jpg" height="320" width="240" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Vanilla flavour is a perfect partner to coffee, cereal, smoothies and for baking cupcakes, Victoria sponge and rock cakes. I also used to make custard.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<u>Unsweetened</u></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-pev5Al4Ozyk/U75CKu62wtI/AAAAAAAAGnk/HdlzcoeWYkM/s1600/2014-06-26+09.07.06.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-pev5Al4Ozyk/U75CKu62wtI/AAAAAAAAGnk/HdlzcoeWYkM/s1600/2014-06-26+09.07.06.jpg" height="320" width="240" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The unsweetened is great for savoury dishes, such as creamy soups, curries, cheese-style sauces, pie fillings and for brushing on pastry before baking.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<u>Chocolate</u></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

If you haven't tried any of the Vive Soy range, then give them a whirl. Hopefully I have given you some inspiration for different ways to use soy milk in your kitchen.</div>

Vive Soy is available in most major supermarkets and health food stores and retails for around £1.25.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
What is your favourite soy milk brand and you most inventive way of adding it into your cooking and meals?</div>

<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">This week's TOV is another from Tesco. This handmade coconut ice is free from artificial flavours and colours and is vegan. Yay! Yummy sweet delicious coconutty treats, what's not to love? It costs £1.48 for a pack of 150g. Most coconut ice has condensed milk in so it is great to find a vegan version in a supermarket.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Now for those of my readers in the USA, you may be wondering why I have never mentioned Earth Balance products before and my UK readers are probably wondering why this would be on TOV and not on Vegan Vox Reviews. Well my vegan friends, here are the answers.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
US readers, here in the UK we do not have access to these wonderful vegan products by Earth Balance which is why I have never featured them before. UK readers, this is not a special product I have been sent for review...I found these at Tesco!! In large Tesco stores at the moment they are trialling American vegan, gluten-free and free-from products. I am hoping if they sell well they may become a regular feature so grab them whilst they are hot!</div>

They taste buttery and rich and how I remember non-vegan butter popcorn tasting. I was so excited to see these in Tesco. They sell for around £2 and they also had by Earth Balance: Sea Salt Kettle Chips, Peanut Butter Popcorn and Peanut Butter spreads.</div>

<div class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
Berlin is
a wonderful city for many reasons, the history, the architecture and
the people, but as a vegan, it is a paradise – full of vegan choices
at every turn.</div>
<div class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<br />
</div>
<div class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
Here are
some of the highlights:</div>
<div class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<br />
</div>
<div class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
All over
the city there are kebab shops, but unlike the UK versions, all of
these serve delicious falafel in pitta with salad. A great
vegan-friendly option if you need something fast!</div>

<div class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
There are
a few chains of organic shops and health food stores, such as <span lang="zxx"><u><a href="http://www.viv-biofrischemarkt.de/"><span style="color: lime;">Viv
Stores</span></a></u></span> and <span lang="zxx"><u><a href="http://www.lpg-biomarkt.de/en/"><span style="color: lime;">LPG</span></a></u></span>,
which have a wide variety of vegan products and an entirely vegan
chain of food shops called <span lang="zxx"><u><a href="http://www.veganz.de/"><span style="color: lime;">Veganz</span></a></u></span>
– these are filled with mock meats, cheeses, store cupboard
essentials, sweets and drinks including the American brands such as
Tofurky, Gardein and Daiya. There is also a coffee shop attached to
Veganz – <span lang="zxx"><u><a href="http://www.goodies-berlin.de/"><span style="color: lime;">Goodies</span></a></u></span>
which sells amazing cakes, paninis, brownies and more. Nearby there
are other vegan boutiques selling shoes and clothes such as <span lang="zxx"><u><a href="https://www.avesu.de/"><span style="color: lime;">Avesu</span></a></u></span>
and <span lang="zxx"><u><a href="http://www.deargoods.com/"><span style="color: lime;">DearGoods</span></a></u></span>.
Nearly every shop sells vegan-friendly Fritz Cola if you fancy a soft
drink and we found almond and soy options as well as at least one
vegan cake at most coffee shops.</div>
