England has just had a mini heatwave (34 degrees Celsius which is pretty uncommon for us!) and the heat of England is the heaviest, most humid heat that I have experienced. Even when the wind blows it is like having someone blow a hairdryer into your face, so it does absolutely nothing to cool you … Continue reading Ben and Jerry’s Berry Revolutionary

Pudding Stop vegan cookie dough sundae
Oh damn... Now THIS is how you do a dessert. I think this gave me enough sugar to last me for a good few months but goodness me was it delicious! A few weeks ago, during some annual leave, we took a trip to St Albans in Hertfordshire. If you have never been, I would … Continue reading Pudding Stop vegan cookie dough sundae
PSA: Vegan Percy Pigs
One of the biggest staples of Britain is Marks & Spencer's, and I think the main reason for this is Percy Pig. What started out as a little pig-shaped sweet has now grown into the mascot, who has cakes, sweets, decorations and stuff toys all in his image and his honour. Which is rightly so … Continue reading PSA: Vegan Percy Pigs
How to be a LGBTQ+ ally
While my main passion in life is animal activism, I find that this relates to all social justice issues that affect our society today. As a vegan, I try to live my life causing as little harm as possible, and this includes how I interact with other people and how I address different issues within … Continue reading How to be a LGBTQ+ ally
Frankie & Benny’s vegan mac ‘n’ cheese
I haven't been to a Frankie & Benny's in years. There used to be one round the corner from where I lived but since moving there isn't one within a reasonable distance. However we took a trip into Wembley (London) the other day and decided to see what new options they had added to their … Continue reading Frankie & Benny’s vegan mac ‘n’ cheese

Doughnut Time: Lil’ Dough Peep
It was Easter weekend here in England which means a 4 day weekend! The weather has also been surprisingly wonderful (20 degrees?! In April?!) so was the perfect time to take a trip into London. Which means we had to take a trip to Doughnut Time. Now when I go into London I do walk … Continue reading Doughnut Time: Lil’ Dough Peep
Milkybar chocolate
I was very excited when the main chocolate brands said that they would be making vegan versions of their favourites: Milkyway, Bounty Bars (don't hate me, I loved bounty bars back in the non-vegan days!), Galaxy. But they truly lied to us with this, because all they really did was bring out chocolate bars with … Continue reading Milkybar chocolate
Vemondo chocolate brownie ice cream
It may have taken me a while but I finally managed to get my hands on Lidl's vegan ice cream range. I've seen articles that it is a cheap man's Ben and Jerry's, so I was very keen to try it. Unfortunately the Lidl near me is not fantastic, and their vegan offerings can be … Continue reading Vemondo chocolate brownie ice cream
Are cat cafes vegan?
As a quick disclaimer, I will not be discussing pet cafes as a whole, only cat cafes. I simply do not agree that all pets can be used for pet cafes Rabbit cafes for example are terrible ideas simply due to the very delicate nature of rabbits, and I imagine a dog cafe could get … Continue reading Are cat cafes vegan?
