    Hey! Same here- looking for vegetarian and vegan friends. I am a vegetarian- but I do find veganism something to aspire to in little steps when possible.

    Me me!!!! I’m a long time pescatarian (fish only) but am slowly and naturally fading into a full vegan diet. I kept track the other month and I’m 80% vegan without trying already! So I think it’ll happen slowly but surely for me- No pressure on myself.

    Hello, I am veggie and hoping to become vegan in 2018. My diet has been becoming more vegan naturally although I am not there yet. Experimenting with cheese recipes at the moment as I find it hard cooking without.

    I was vegan back in the day. My only advice is don't try to make cheese happen. It won't happen. After eating vegan for 6-8m and having our family have to go dairy free for both kids when they were young...it just isn't the same. Daiya products get close....but yeah in general you will save a bit of money by not trying out and being depressed at every option lol.

    I’m vegan and have been for 2 years although at times not the most healthiest I’m here to change that!

    I think I would advise people to try a couple different kinds for themselves to see if they like them. Sometimes people who try one and dislike it wind up enjoying another brand.

    I think Daiya is just okay, but I really enjoy Mikoyo's Creamery and Kite Hill.
