Are home grown eggs vegan?

This is a question that I have often pondered on over the years. Now I have never owned chickens, but I would of course love to. I think chickens are just so adorable, and I also really love the idea of having modern day dinosaurs wandering around my house. But I have always wondered whether … Continue reading Are home grown eggs vegan?

Ben and Jerry’s Oat of this swirled

I think it is pretty widely accepted that nothing beats Ben and Jerry's ice cream. Their flavours are highly creative, and their vegan range is still of the same high quality as their non-vegan options, which is rare with many other brands. I am also quite a fan of their sundaes, so when I saw … Continue reading Ben and Jerry’s Oat of this swirled

When you forget to check the ingredients…

I fancied a little bit of chocolate over this weekend and so treated myself to some of the Monty Bojangles truffles, because they are just too good to say no to. Except, I didn't realise that Monty Bojangles were not a totally vegan brand - I usually only see their vegan options, so when I … Continue reading When you forget to check the ingredients…

Where do vegans get their protein from?

Despite this information being readily available online, I am still asked this question on a far too regular basis. As soon as someone hears that I'm vegan, or at least hears that I don't eat meat, I am met with the obligatory 'But what about your protein intake?' as though without meat it is only … Continue reading Where do vegans get their protein from?

Crosstown Cinnamon Scroll doughnut

I somehow question how I make it through the weeks without doughnuts. I don't have them every week, but on the weeks I do get these extra little treats, it is just the most comforting and rewarding thing possible. Especially on those very busy weeks with lots of miles ran, lots of work meetings and … Continue reading Crosstown Cinnamon Scroll doughnut

Magnum Raspberry ripple

I don't know why I am eating an ice cream in the middle of the English winter, but I just had such a craving! In particular, a magnum type ice cream. With the frozen chocolate on the outside of it. I still believe that nothing beats that type of ice cream. There is just something … Continue reading Magnum Raspberry ripple

‘This is Vegan Propaganda’ by Ed Winters book review

Book description: Our choices can help alleviate the most pressing issues we face today: the climate crisis, infectious and chronic diseases, human exploitation and, of course, non-human exploitation. Undeniably, these issues can be uncomfortable to learn about but the benefits of doing so cannot be overstated. It is quite literally a matter of life and … Continue reading ‘This is Vegan Propaganda’ by Ed Winters book review

Crosstown chocolate ring doughnut

Crosstown really seem to be raising those vegan standards because we vegans are really being spoilt for choice with their current range. It would not be a trip into London if I didn't pick up at least one sweet treat for the evening, and Crosstown is just hitting all the right spots lately. I truly … Continue reading Crosstown chocolate ring doughnut

Request – elcotrolyte recommendations

I am currently training for a half marathon and so am experimenting with the best fuel options. I am also set to run a marathon at the end of the year too so hoping that if I sort my feuling during this half marathon, I can think about it less during the full marathon. I … Continue reading Request – elcotrolyte recommendations

Another day, another doughnut. This time from Crosstown, a doughnut company that is spread out across the country but is mainly focused within London. According to their website they have around 15 locations, including stores, trucks and market stalls, all around the city so if you do plan a visit then this store will be … Continue reading Crosstown vanilla bean doughnut
