Vegan 100

Ok, I have buckled and joined the masses in doing this Vegan 100. But I was feeling a bit left out about the items that were dependent on being in the USA so have changed a few of those to Australian places so I could join in! (and perhaps so my list wouldn't look so pathetic...)


Rules:
1) Copy this list into your blog or social networking site profile, including these instructions.
2) Bold all the items you’ve eaten.
3) Cross out or italicize any items that you would never consider eating.

  1. I love these lists too - did one a while back (vegetarian rather than vegan) with some Australian ingredient as I agree I am not likely to try some of the more American treats - it is a good way to reflect on meals to try - will have to check if I have ticked more off my list since doing it

  2. Yeah we should put together an Australian Vegan 100.

    I would also love a Melbourne Vegan 100 shops and restaurants!

  3. Changing certain items is a really good idea! I liked reading your list.

    WHY has everyone but me had Apple Lemon Ginger Cayenne fresh-pressed juice with Extra Ginger? I had never even thought of that combination.

  4. Yeah, I would love someone to change more of the items to Melbourne stuff - except I'm not much of a vegan veteran yet!

    I don't think I was creative in thinking of that combo of juice - it was just one of those random chance combos after having tried making 100000000 different juices in my time! (I used a chili, not cayenne)
