[@testt9414]

i'm vegan and i think it's so impressive that you gave veganism a good shot for the week, regardless of the mistakes/intentional non-vegan eats! the worst thing about veganism is seriously how dogmatic people are. it really doesn't have to be all-or-nothing - if you can't be a perfect and strict vegan, and being super strict will make you upset/miss out on life, whats the point? being 90% or 50% or even 10% vegan is better than not being vegan at all :) you did amazing and i hope you can try and aim for a more plant-based lifestyle where convenient!!

[@Grackle]

Yuju K exactly!! That’s what I was trying to say, like surely something helps more than nothing!

[@emilystorck9560]

Thank you! I hate the vegans that criticize people that are at least trying to reduce their harm to animals. theres people out there that really think people who are vegetarian are just as bad as complete nonvegans.... it's impossible to be 100% vegan anyways. Because to me being vegan means eliminating harm to all living beings and unless you grow all of your own food most food is produced by workers who are treated unethically.

[@Simnettnutrition]

I always say, "Don't do nothing because you can't do everything". :D

[@rebeccakealy5340]

Emily Storck I'm exactly the same as you gal, I'm a vegan but holy hell I get annoyed at angry vegans. Any reduction in consumption of animal products is an amazing thing for so many reasons. Support everyone with their decisions and just be kind is my opinion 🙈

[@lyte3339]

I hate vegans that say you can't be a certain percentage of veganism🤔

[@phoenixmeadow]

personally, i only cook vegan food for myself and just eat vegetarian when i eat out. it’s the best i can do right now and that’s what matters! i’ll be fully vegan some day but, with a history of an eating disorder, worrying so much about food is not so realistic for me. i’m glad you tried this out and had a good time! be easy on yourself and just figure out how to do the best you can to reduce your animal product consumption. starting small and making incremental changes, with an end goal in mind, is the way to go!

[@VioletWaves44]

I totally feel you on this comment, as someone with an eating disorder past also. I just got back from Greece and didn't wish to explain to every waiter that I don't want milk or eggs in their veggie options, which mostly are vegan anyway if you order the right things. But sometimes they sprinkle cheese on or serve with a yogurt zip. I would rather support veggie options when out rather than eat meat so to me, that's still making a difference and showing a demand for veggie options in restaurants. I got really stressed about this when I was last there, so I decided to just do my best this time. But you still get the light shone on you sometimes cos you're restricting most animal products lol.

[@cozycasasmr4510]

I did the same! Vegan at home and then vegetarian when I went out/was with my family who thought veganism was way too crazy haha

[@alexandrapanico374]

I do pretty much the same. I live in a country where I don't speak the language well enough to always interrogate everyone about whether there is a bit of milk in something. I always avoid meat and fish and just generally try to avoid other animal products 9 times out of 10. It's not perfect but I am happy with this approach as I can do my best without being seen as 'difficult' by non-vegans who cook for me.

All vegans aren't aggressive like that. For most people its a journey. Most don't wake up and say ok I'm vegan now and never slip up. It takes time and it takes some longer than others.

it took me one and a half year to go vegan. i went vegetarian in 2015, and slowly i started to change it up so i stopped eating animal products. but it took a long time. so it is okay to make mistakes! i think it’s great that you wanted to try it out, because i really love being vegan!

[@isla2593]

@@Joy-qw3wm hi, haha what's a few years. I think you've misunderstood, I wasn't saying vegan eating isn't unhealthy or bad for the planet, just almond milk specifically being a huge tax on resources such as water. Alternatives to almond milk (oat, soya etc) are far better for the environment than almonds, and if a driving reason for incorporating vegan meals was environmental concern then they'd be preferable. I'm sorry to hear about your health and I'm glad youve found a diet that works :) I love soya milk the most (especially in coffee) but rarely have it due to flatmates soya intolerance

I'm vegan and I think honey is vegan depending on where you get it from. Large companies manufacturing honey is a big no for me, but we have a local store that sells locally harvested honey from local farmers, and I know all the farmers that sell their honey to the local store. They treat their bees SO WELL and their bees don't die to make the honey, along with helping the local environment (flowers and such). They don't even use smoke on their bees. So I don't see a problem with buying honey, just make sure you know where you're getting it from

[@robyn109]

same

[@sleepingtiger2105]

Honey is not vegan because even if the bees don’t die, they still being exploited by people. And they make honey for themselves but not for people to steal it from them. There is also a very good documentary called More Than Honey

[@robyn109]

Sleeping Tiger i know but if it is locally sourced and you’re 100% sure it’s totally ethical i don’t see a problem

[@sleepingtiger2105]

robyn I don’t understand how the exploitation can be ethical :( and people take away the honey that bees make for themselves to eat in winter to survive

im vegan and don't even worry about the bagel, its the first week. over time, people learn that your vegan and if you're in a family or friends setting, they won't mind. its just a getting used to thing. once your intentions are fully set in stone, you'll realise that you would rather just have an awkward situation over going against your morals. maybe watch some documentaries and it will get heaps easier. transitioning is the hardest part. visit a vegan cafe and you'll realise how good it can be. by being plant based for 70% of your diet is doing so much already, you just gotta do you

[@adamc3390]

From my research, eating honey is good and supports bees. Bees often make a surplus of honey that’s way more than they need and it doesn’t hurt them or seriously disrupt their systems or health to harvest it if the beekeeper has proper education and equipment. Also if there is a demand for honey, beekeepers stay in business and bee populations can grow. It’s also a good idea to look up ways to support local native varieties of bee so they can continue to thrive in the community. Go bees! Edit: clarification

[@gmaerowed]

A lot of vegans swap out honey for agave which actually negatively affects the ecosystems and homes of animals in that area, not to mention agave has a super high glycemic index. I love to support local beekeepers and help the environment by buying locally sourced, ethical honey ❤❤

[@negativeplace]

The bad thing about bees kept by beekeepers is that we need wild bees, and the bees kept by beekeepers carry diseases that kill the wild ones. And the bees get sugar water instead of their honey when humans take it from them.

Some tips that worked for me: Make sure you eat plenty of legumes, nuts and seeds whenever you would've had animal products, just don't eat everything like before but without meat/eggs/dairy. Do pick the whole grain version of everything. Also it could be worth checking if you could benefit from supplements (except for b12, if you're vegan this should be mandatory) like omega 3, D-vitamines, iron etc. Good luck with eating more plant based and based!

My general tactic for dealing with the "I don't eat that" situation, especially at parties is to offer to bring something for me to have and to be shared. Also I always pre plan what I am going to eat when I go for meals. If you are genuinely interested in starting moving towards being more vegan then just take it slow, let yourself make mistakes and just keep being aware and positive :) never let anyone tell you you aren't doing something right.

If you ate mostly vegan with the odd mayo etc now and then, you'd still be doing extremely well!

As a vegan I'll admit there have been times I ate something and later on found out it wasnt vegan but you live and learn! You gave it a try and that makes a big difference 😁 I know first hand its very hard to make a switch like that especially going out where you can control whats in the food. You did great though, the animals thank you.

I thought this was “I went to Vegas for Five days, here’s what happened”

[@ThePringle268]

YES GRACKLE!!!!! Going vegan is the best thing you could ever do for yourself, the planet and of course the animals! You can get an abundance of vegan mayo in the UK by the way, Tesco even does a free from mayo!

[@Grackle]

Penelope S does it taste like normal mayo!?

[@ThePringle268]

There are so many to try so you can see which one tastes the most similar to you, but yes, it's crazy what plants can replicate! :D

[@megsd1533]

@@Grackle You are in luck! Tesco is launching new hellmanns vegan mayonnaise in a month!

[@jennifermalcolm6838]

Just popping past to say the Tesco Vegan Free From Mayo tastes AMAZING!

[@clarehackett1023]

Thanks so much for this video ^_^ what was it you ate at 6.12 for breakfast day 2? Thank youuuu X

[@Grackle]

Clare Hackett these little chocolate bread things but they were homemade!

Honestly going vegan cold turkey can sometimes be hard. I first cut out red meat and then 6 months later went full vegetarian and then it took me another year and a half to go vegan and even then i still made a few mistakes. I’ve been vegan for nearly a year and would never go back

[@VioletWaves44]

They do vegan mayo fyi for next time. It's usually in the free from aisle, not the refrigerated one. But not every store sells it. My mum always buys it for when me and my vegan sister come home because her local Morrisons always stock it, and it's actually really nice.

[@dallaspaige1046]

Love all your videos. You should do some more what I eat in a day one's 😊

[@hymkemeijer]

ahahahhaha the mushroom part cracked me up... plants are also technically a living organism so you would not be able to eat anything then...

[@avazoeheming9342]

im 13 and the only vegan in my family so trip up all the time by accident, i am realy happy you tried out veganism and hope u might choose the vegan option every now and again. luv your videos x

[@renaerufus8707]

"CRUNCH" went the toast!!! Yummy!

[@BrilliantHuman]

It can be harder to go out and eat socially depending on where you are/where you go... I think what helps me is just remembering why I'm doing it. It just feels so important to me now that foods that have animal products in them don't even sound like food options. It gets better. At first it was for my health, and it still is AND I also educated myself on the ethics and that makes it so much easier to say no to what isn't vegan. It can make other's uncomfortable, but I have clear boundaries around that and I have to remember that I have to honour what makes serves me and my integrity and I'm not responsible for others.

[@katieh747]

What’s the recipe for the chocolate tart??

[@heatherkeegan3726]

I’ve been vegan for 3yrs and I think it’s been harder for my family to deal with than it has been for me! Bc of eating out etc, its hard to stay true to ur self when you don’t want to be annoying for everyone else but I guess you just gotta put it in perspective and go eat out places that have vegan menus, lots of restaurants in the UK do now, like Zizzi’s, Pizza express, Wagamama etc...

[@MeganRayC]

Loved this, I wish I could stick at being vegan, I do try to not eat animal products where possible but just can't fully take the leap! Btw, what do you use to edit with your handwriting?! I love it and think it would be fab for revision is it on the iPad pro?!!

[@Grackle]

MeganRayC yeah, and then once you commit people are always like ‘your eating....I thought you were vegan’ like it’s better than what you are doing buddy oxoxoxox also it’s just on a normal iPad, not boujee enough for an iPad Pro hahaha

[@MeganRayC]

I know there’s so much pressure around veganism lol I just want to eat what I want without no labels on it 😂😂 is it an app!? Xx

[@Grackle]

MeganRayC just on procreate! (I believe it is £10!) xx

[@girld1ck]

You don't have to restrictly stick to one diet. You don't even have to tell people about what speciall diet are you on. :)

So I am also lactose intolerant and I've been looking everywhere for chocolate covered pretzels you are a blumin saint! 💕

[@francescaogbuachi8096]

Thank you Grace 😊😊

[@strawberryjpeg6000]

I’m a vegan and this made me happy. I made so many mistakes when first going vegan because I had burgers with cheese in because they stated it was vegan also the first weeks of going vegan is overwhelming because your body is getting rid of meat and dairy

[@ryleelillie5964]

I'm a 15 year old vegan and I usually make my own dinners or my mum will just make a dinner for me as we all eat at different times. And I don't really go out to eat but if I do, I would go to half man half burger or TGIF. However there are loads of restaurants that do vegan options

[@Eucis93]

I don’t think people understand that alot of things you already eat are vegan, like bread, pasta, tomato sauce etc. Personally I also think people shouldn’t get crap for trying it or vegans messing up once in a while. The whole point is to LESSEN the use of animal products, so if someone has mayonnaise once or doesn’t read the label before buying something it doesn’t matter. I’m not vegan but I have switched my normal staple foods to vegan ones and I try to eat as little meat as possible. Every little thing helps, so if you just check to see if you can switch your mayo, butter, milk, canned goods etc. into vegan ones I would still salute you. Switch whatever you can and if you want to you can go vegan, but I think veganism gets a bad rep because of all the famous vegans that makes it look so intricate and difficult and judging normal people for not eating the way they do. When it comes to honey I don’t think we should stop buying it because bees help our agriculture and basically keeps the world alive lol and buying honey helps the bee keepers so they can continue their work and so on. In other words, allowing bees to produce honey helps the environment and our food production and the bees obviously are gonna do it even if we don’t buy their honey so why waste a good, healthy product that isn’t harming anyone 🤷‍♀️

[@tabithagolembeski9266]

I’m a vegan and for some reason your other videos had appeared on my main page for suggested videos. Eventually I got to this. I’m glad when people are willing to try plant based. Mistakes happen in the beginning so no worries

[@SaxonRachel]

Just a quick word that for the results your looking for you are going to need to maintain any type of lifestyle ? eating habit change for much longer than this to see any effect
