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
Crosstown vanilla bean doughnut
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
Krispy Kreme I love you a-choco-lot
I promise I don't have a doughnut problem. Krispy Kreme is just doing so well with their vegan friendly doughnuts that it feels rude not to try them all. Now this one is not labelled as vegan, however I did do a scan of their allergens and ingredients pamphlet online and I didn't see anything … Continue reading Krispy Kreme I love you a-choco-lot
Gnaw oat milk chocolate
I find that the hunt for good vegan chocolate is an ongoing battle. My favourite used to be the Tesco's own brand orange chocolate, but it seems that they have now discontinued this to replace it with new own brand chocolate bars, none of which are vegan. Which is such a shame because this was … Continue reading Gnaw oat milk chocolate
