Vegan food brands

Piri

Sustainability and plant based foods are directly connected. In this discussion I am inviting you to share some great vegan food brands you discovered. 🌿🥑🍏

Even if I prefer homemade food made from scratch sometimes is good to have some alternatives.

I am starting with a sustainable vegan CHOCOLATE brand from Finland. Most of vegan chocolate bars I tasted I didn't like the feeling and flavours, but these chocolates are just simple great in taste, sustainability, design, transparency

GOODIO

My favourite is this one from the ones I tasted until now:

This chocolate is so good, I love all the flavors they make.

Öko Kaapo

Piri My favourite is this one from the ones I tasted until now:

A good choice, my favorite chocolate and that is my favorite flavor too!

Egle-K

That looks super good!

I bought some German chocolate in Veggo, with rose in it called Gmeiner, and it was good, I think it is vegan, there is no dairy listed on the ingredients.

Piri

Egle-K I remember trying it, but not the flavour.

We don't eat so often yogurt, but sometimes we want it! Depending from the place we lived we found different companies. There are couple things about plant based yogurts - the first that they are most of the time pricey, and it doesn't even feel or taste like yogurt. Last year we tried plenty brands and it was not so good. Again you can make it from plant based drinks(milks) at home, but what about ready to eat ones?

Well I am not so happy that Danone bought Alpro, but they claim to keep all quality and vegan products of Alpro well maintained.

Alpro

So vegan yogurt brand of my choice is ALPRO they offer Greek yogurt alternative, plain natural flavour which is very nice! And the one with flavour I like the most is below in the picture.

Aiga

This is one of my most favorite things.

Salted caramel coconut bliss

I do not know really what you are supposed to use it for. I put it in smoothies and it makes them amazing or eat it with the spoon. 😅

Piri

Aiga never tasted this, sounds like a candy 🙂 in general Biona is all about organics and sustainability for decades.

Skylar

Aiga

I saw this in the shop but I didn't pick any up, but if you say it is good maybe I will try!

Guess you just use it instead of peanut butter or almond butter?

Piri

While living in Denmark we used many products like grains, coconut sugar, gluten-free flour like coconut, almonds, as well tomatoes in the can by Danish company which was one of the most Sustainable in Denmark.

The company is well know for organic products, they have not just food, but body care products aswell. But for example in Lithuania it is quite hard to get their production. Well I am not sure they are just vegan or not, but vegan friendly and gluten free friendly for sure.

Urtekram

As well they had spices and powder like baobab which I love in tiny eco-friendly boxes.

Aiga

Skylar Yes, you can use it anywhere!

THE BEGINNINGS

Latvian brand! Well I don't know how Sustainable they are, but the production is natural, vegan and mostly raw: cookies, crackers, pesto, veggies crisps and more.

The Beginnings

Personally I tried just tomato crisps (super tasty), but my parents love beetroot and sweet potatoes crisps, and crackers.

Piri THE BEGINNINGS

Actually I tried a lot of their products and all of them are really good!

We are in the US at the moment and so all of the brands that I can pick up over here are completely different to most of the stuff that you find in Europe.

I'm really looking forward to trying out some of these as soon as we land there, especially those tomato chips and the salted caramel spread.

Piri

Julie Brooks-Girskiene we are now in Mexico so we are trying out things here. The big plus is plant based milks (drinks) well Silk I like the most... and just amazing fresh avocados and all kind of veggies and fruits which in Europe we don't eat often and they are not so eco-friendly.. 😊

I buy Silk sometimes, I really like their cashew milk, but Stasys hates it.

Mexico sounds exciting, when are you going back to Europe? If you are flying though Chicago you could come and say hi 👋

Piri

Rude Health

I would say it is well known brand from UK, and you can find in many countries, for example in Lithuania aswell.

Dairy-free drinks are unsweetened, organic has barista versions, there are selection of granolas, cookies, flour like spelt ect. Quality is good.

Rude Health

Well my homemade granola has less sugars and more cool stuff, but they do good about sugar because granola usually hides a massive amount of sugars.

Skylar

Aiga I will order some with my next shopping.

Vilte

I just discovered a grain called fonio that I never heard of before.

You can get it from a company called Aduna, as well as other superfood products. I'm not sure where they are from, I found it in one shop here but I think it is from Europe somewhere. https://aduna.com/

I am Ashlynn

Vilte I'm not sure where they are from, I found it in one shop here but I think it is from Europe somewhere.

I have seen that in a shop here in the UK as well.

I really like these pulled oats - https://goldandgreenfoods.com/productcategory/pulled-oats/

Piri

Aiga

I noticed these oats before, but had never tried. Probably it is a time to do so.

Arvīds

Aiga Maybe they taste amazing but in that picture they look like something not nice at all.

Marin-94

Aiga I never heard of the pulled oats, what does it taste like?
