[@NoEggCraig]

Thanks!

[@vikkigillespie8945]

Tara From Terra what is booch

[@theherbivorehustle1871]

true

[@ericad3850]

I'm jealous of all that good food you got! All I've had to eat today was a smoothie and Justin's peanut butter cup, so I was practically drooling while watching this. I'm glad you had fun!

[@NoEggCraig]

Haha awww wish you could have come!

[@theveganhippie2730]

I'm from the midwest too and I'm planning on going to the Chicago Vegandale this year. Can't wait!! Great review of the fest too.

[@NoEggCraig]

I'll probably see you there!

[@vivianwilliams2216]

Craig and Kat, thanks for bringing us along with you and your friend Marsha to the festival, that sandwich looked delicious, and the ice cream cookies! Wishing you all the best!

[@NoEggCraig]

Thanks Vivian! We had so much fun and such good food, also happy 4th!

[@SandraOranje]

Hi guys. This was really fun to watch and I was looking forward to this after seeing all the nice pics on instagram. I totally get you guys. It's very warm here in the Netherlands as well and I also crave more cold stuff. I even make more salads than usual. Oh btw Craig. That potatoe salad. A keeper. And I did not add the maple syrup. (I listened to you.😉) Didn't miss it. Hugs for the both of you from Holland 💕😉

[@NoEggCraig]

I haven't made it without the syrup yet but I can imagine it's much better, I'll have to make it again sometime soon though for sure!

[@christinaarundale8583]

I SEARCHED this video to see if I could spot myself in the background 😅 I still can't believe I didn't see you guys there all day!! I actually first heard about this event from your video where you mentioned that you would be there, so I was really hoping to see you. Also, I totally agree that the music and DJ were a little too loud and obnoxious to handle, but otherwise it was a really great event👌

[@NoEggCraig]

100% agree. Next time DM me on instagram and we’ll have to meet up!

[@theherbivorehustle1871]

you may be in the background of mine hahah

[@christinaarundale8583]

The Herbivore Hustle I'll check it out!👍

[@edmyrvespucci]

looks like a fun summer event.. makes me want to go on the next one...

[@NoEggCraig]

Definitely, it was so worth it

[@Uniquelyyours1]

Yummy food, Craig and Kat. Masha's sandwich looked extra devine. Too bad it was so darn hot that day. Thanks for another great vidya:)

[@NoEggCraig]

[@eileengray8228]

Finally! I’ve been waiting for a noeggcraig Vijay. That cake looked amazing!

[@NoEggCraig]

[@theherbivorehustle1871]

I found out last minute, so glad I did

[@nebraskafrankcourtny]

I've had that same experience going to the Festival of the Arts here in Grand Rapids, where the heat is oppressive and the music is deafeningly loud.

[@NoEggCraig]

Yeah, other than that though it was great!

[@lalalafalalala]

I was there! Wish there would've been lighter fare. Agree on the tropic love fruit though. Super underwhelmed with the pineapple.

[@NoEggCraig]

Haha yeah underwhelmed is definitely a good description

[@EvolutionofMasha]

OMG....and yea I definitely had sun poisoning when I was at work....was not thinking straight. They really need to not have the fest in the hottest month of the year lol!

[@NoEggCraig]

Yeah or a mister tent would be amazing!

[@janicekrol8320]

[@yarivargas8144]

Hi! Just an FYI this Sunday July 22nd, 12p-5p at the Emporium logan square 2363 N. Milwaukee, 30+ local vegan chefs & cruelty free vendors.... I was one of the vendors at the vegandale fest this year...and I will be this Sunday there as well.. you guys should go check it out.

[@vanillathunder9106]

Deep dish for the win!!

[@NoEggCraig]

Twas grand!

[@helenbell1988]

Looks incredible!! We are coming to usa in nov and we are hoping for more vegan foods than we have here in England!! ...

[@byronmurphy1977]

Helen Gay I live in England and I agree.

[@theherbivorehustle1871]

I was in london recently and the selection wasnt great :(

[@katrhoads2741]

Yeah... I would try that deep dish without hesitation!

[@NoEggCraig]

haha yeah that was one thing I wanted to try more than anything else. I mean I was in Chicago, that's the best place to try it

[@Lolations]

Did they accept debits/credit cards??

[@leapinlizards115]

when/where is the NYC veg fest in september?

[@NoEggCraig]

September 10th on Randall’s Island

[@jesusfan3151]

Did you meet Shine with Plants? They live there.

[@NoEggCraig]

I don’t know who that is haha

[@jesusfan3151]

No Egg Craig They have a KZbin channel and are vegan family.😯😕

[@deleruiz8573]

Appreciate your honesty.

[@humboldtrootz]

You guys would fit right in up here in Northern California 💯🌲🤙✌️

[@katbandit3190]

all i can think of is all of the times i had to run a mile in under 10 min in that park during highschool >.

[@NoEggCraig]

Haha good memories huh?

[@daze2992]

Pie pie my darling is amazing ! I get all my cakes from there :)

[@BethGrantDeRoos]

Real loud music and hot weather drains you. Nice video!!

[@NoEggCraig]

Thanks Beth!

[@cg-fb9ct]

Great video, Craig and Kat. Speaking of Kat, your cats are beautiful and did you come home to a catfest? lol. When Mommy and Daddy are away the cats will party.🎉 The rainbow cake looked awesome. The dots were cute and I would've gotten the pistachio and orangesicle ones also. Whatever the sandwich was could that have been a vegan pork or beef hoagie? Yummy looking. Sorry it was so hot and loud there. Kat you were so beautiful even in 90+ degree weather. Glad that you both had a good time otherwise. Enjoy your time together.

[@NoEggCraig]

Yeah we a had of catnip to clean up when we got home, but all the food was great! #worthit

[@petalsforarmor106]

You were there?! I would have loved to meet you!

[@NoEggCraig]

Next year! DM me on instagram too and we’ll meet up!

[@Rachel_85w]

Quick vegan question. So if a vegan has some pet chickens and these chickens have the best life ever, super happy and want for nothing!! Would a vegan eat the eggs? Chickens lay eggs anyway, fertilised or not most will lay eggs. So what would the vegan do with the eggs? xx

[@NoEggCraig]

Nope, because it’s not a plant.

[@Rachel_85w]

No Egg Craig would they throw the eggs away or give them to someone who would eat them. Sorry was probably a silly question but just wondered as I’m guessing some vegan choose to be vegan for ethical reasons not just medical/dietary reasons. So if it was an ethical reason I just wondered about the eggs in that kind of situation. 😀

[@bethanyf9270]

Rachel Williamson chickens will often eat their own eggs if they are not fertilized. It takes a lot out of a chicken to lay an egg, so they are able to re-absorb some nutrients by eating those eggs.

[@Rachel_85w]

Bethany M hi. Thank you for reply. It’s just something I often wondered about and what would be done in that situation. Probably a silly question to ask but for someone who knows nothing about being vegan I just had no idea. x

[@abdullahhabib7105]

Yall from Chicago?

[@grannysquared7140]

NYC can be really hot in Sept. and even into Oct.

[@NoEggCraig]

Last year it was juuuust right

[@goodreason6462]

How much was the rainbow cake tho?

[@doxiemom6850]

You could tell it was hot out. Fun video guys.

[@SandraFruitsYou]

I had shirts for $20 at the fest :) would have hooked you two up!

[@NoEggCraig]

Oh did you have a booth!?

[@paigegomez6836]

Ahhh Compassion Co! I love Andy from the Bearded Vegans!

[@NoEggCraig]

What’s the Bearded Vegans? Sounds like a band haha

[@BethBoots]

$20 Mac n Cheese burger🤬 pizza looks awesome 💚 totally going to NYC Vegandale in September😍 heat index is 108° in my part of NJ today, it's 98° 😥

[@NoEggCraig]

Yes! I’ll see ya there!

[@BethBoots]

No Egg Craig awesome! I will totally be looking for you both❣

[@ashs3836]

Yay

[@TheGhjbkl]

It was sooo hot! I agree with you those fruit drinks were not satisfying at all!

[@NoEggCraig]

They looked satisfying though!

[@d2imagine]

I complained to the DJ about the volume last year and he told me the organizer wanted it that loud. They refused to turn it down. We literally could not hear each other or the vendors talking. It was ridiculous. We left early because of it and I’ll never go back. Glad you liked the food though.

[@Relectrod]

I was there, damn I wish I saw u guys I didn't know u guys were gona be in chicago 😭

[@NoEggCraig]

I mentioned it in a few of my recent vidyas and livestreams, I guess ya gotta watch em all haha! I should have posted on instagram too though to let ya know
