The rise of Veganism is evident, as the last few years have seen the launch of various Vegan food products. More people are not just experimenting with Vegan food and incorporating it into their diets, but becoming Vegan completely. According to The Vegan Society, Deliveroo’s Vegan orders spiked by 163% in 2020; and Vegans and vegetarians look set to make up a quarter of the British population in 2025.

As well as the health benefits that come with being a vegan, there are clear effects to climate change and sustainability issues. A study published in New Scientist magazine showed that each person can reduce the amount of greenhouse gases that his or her diet contributes to climate change by up to 60 per cent—just by going Vegan.

With the world changing and sustainability/ climate change/ access to resources becoming an increased worry across the world (it only takes a few threats of petrol and toilet paper shortages to send the world into an extreme panic), it is more essential to rely on less and help the world in whatever way we can. 

A great way to help is eating more plant-based meals, and an online subscription helps reduce thinking time when trying to eat more non-meat options, as well as being seriously packed with flavour.

If you’re considering taking up a plant-based diet and are seeking some options to get you started, you’re in luck! Our Director, Sarah Balch, is a strong advocate for Veganism, and has selected a few of her favourite online Vegan meal prep companies for you to explore!
