RE: AUTUMN PENNE 🍁💚🍁
Howdy Janton, thank you again for being a gentleman, lol.
It depends what exactly. Some veggies and fruits do not cost a lot but some do. Also the prices change with seasons. For example English cucumber during the summer cost $0.99, but now is up to $1.50 to $1.80, depends which store. Avocado same price range. Tofu and beans are cheep, however, organic spelt pasta, quina, chia, cacao powder, nuts, just to name a few are very pricey items.
Nevertheless, there is a way how to live on vegan diet on very low cost, by shopping for cost effective yet nutritious items, such us beans, rice, potatoes, root vegetables, lettuce, apples and whatever is seasonal. This of course does not apply to restaurants. Eating in any restaurants is always expensive.
howdy today Miss Lena! I see.. and also you can purchase many of the items in bulk so that can bring down the cost of the others like avocados.
Do you go to restaurants out to eat much? It seems like vegan restaurants may be more of an exclusive, kind of elite type is that right? I mean in a small redneck town like our local town you aren't going to find a vegan restaurant!
Howdy Janton,
Well you can buy lots of things in bulk, but avocado o. Bulk barn is great for spices, cereals , flour and all nuts besides other items, but it's not exactly cheep neither. I personally eat in restaurants very rarely, but I wouldn't call vegan restaurants elite, lol. For the urban people in Toronto it's part of their lifestyle.
howdy again Miss Lena! oh ok, vegan restaurants aren't elite, got it. Well I'm learning more about this strange diet everyday! lol.
We almost never eat out. Unfortunately, hopefully that will change some day. Dunkin Donuts is my favorite place! but I haven't been to one in many years sadly. lol.
Well, veganism is not really a diet and it isn't strange neither. For example Pythagoras, Da Vinci, Buddha, Jesus Christ, Einstein and many more well know individuals were vegetarians which was same back then as vegan today. The reason why we do not consume flesh is mainly ethical and spiritual, but we laso do not by leather clothing and products tested on animals.
However, back to eating out, Dunkin Donuts are not good for you anyway or eating out in general, unless you go to a very good vegan restaurant, lol.
howdy again Miss Lena! well, the reason I haven't been to a Dunkin Donuts is because of self-control. I've been on a clean eating crusade for many years, driving people nuts.
No the vegan style of eating isn't a diet but I sometimes don't know what to call these things...like the Keto eating plan, people call it a diet but it's a lifestyle just like vegan is.
As far as it being strange, no I know it isn't strange to you but the concept is a strange one to me. but hey, I'm very open minded and learning alot and anything that can help get people away from the hideous eating habits of fast food, soft drinks and all that poison I'm in favor of!
