Veganism is taking over the planet like wild-fire and for good reason: the diet is healthy, ethical and contributes positively to the climate. Awareness about the nutritional benefits of veganism and the growing availability of plant-based ingredients have definitely helped hasten the adoption of this healthy diet.

However, we understand that it may not always be possible to have vegan options at hand, especially if you’re travelling or are staying at a place with limited vegan diners or stores. Also, given the explosion in demand for vegan products, the prices of vegan food-items, at times, prove to be expensive too.
