Lovely to discover you two. What a helpful friendly video. I have been vegan for years and I can see how helpful you are ❤

[@maximokit]

I started Veganuary 3 years ago today..(you don’t have to start on the 1st Jan) and safe to say your channel has been instrumental in me now beginning my 4th year vegan. Keep up the Stirling work guys 🎉

[@davidjones6470]

Congratulations lads over 18K, Well deserved Paul and Jason,

[@charlotterice7418]

I love you guys 😊. Thanks for helping me become vegan a year ago. Still vegan 😊. My tip for newbies: if soya milk curdles in your coffee its because of the hot mixing with cold. Warm the soya milk in the microwave for a minute while the kettle boils and then make as normal. No curdling

[@lindajo1840]

These tips are useful, thanks.

[@filawless]

Or I even find if you take the soy milk out of the fridge before you fill the kettle, make your tea but leave it steep for a minute or so, the difference in temp is lower so it doesn't curdle

[@Addified]

What a great tip!

[@Julie31596]

I buy the Growers Harvest 50p soya milk and it is lovely on my morning granola. It's never curdled in my tea or hot chocolate, but I always shake the carton first (a tip from Stuart from Veganuary last year). Happy New Year Guys and a big warm welcome to anyone doing veganuary xxx

[@janegoodfellow1529]

Great tip 👍

[@maximokit]

Me too! Though I do have to buy Oatly for my omni son as he has transitioned to Oat milk, but the soya is still a step too far for him.

[@LeaKhn]

We use this on our overnight oats, cheap and cheerful and brilliant!

[@meatismurder3261]

Not fortified though.

[@MostlyLoveOfMusic]

Thanks, your efforts are deeply valued

[@janegoodfellow1529]

They really are ❤

[@janelizabethlove]

Squeaky Bean Chorizo is amazing! It’s really nice with pasta. I make the sauce with silken tofu and it tastes like carbonara! I’d be happy to share the recipe if anyone is interested x

[@joles-gaming]

Yes pls!

[@Addified]

Sounds delish ❤

[@ewanstevenson]

Have to say... You were very quick off the mark (and the settee) to get this out so soon! Kudos to you and happy new year!

[@sonofliberty1]

I didn't expect to see a Veganuary video so quickly. Thanks for this guys, it was really useful. Tesco is my default shop because it's just around the corner but you've shown me quite a few things that I've not noticed or thought about before.

[@heylittlejude]

This was brilliant. Better than my Tesco - stuff I’ve not seen before. Ten years for me, too, but sometimes you need a bit of extra inspo. Thanks! 💚

[@ThoseVeganGuys]

Hey you, so lovely to read you here again. X

[@heylittlejude]

@ My pleasure. Kudos to you for your never ending enthusiasm for the cause 💚 x

[@janegoodfellow1529]

I absolutely adore the plant milk wall in all the supermarkets! Reminds me we're not alone in trying to protect animals and eating responsibly for the planet.

[@LondonEve24]

Just found your blog. It’s great! Thanks for your hard work. X

[@robinsutton4952]

Thanks TVG. Happy New Year to all.

[@worldofwarcraftnoob254]

Great vlog. I love Astonish products! They're made in the UK plus it’s a small company based in Yorkshire and their stuff is very reasonably priced too. If anyone can’t find them in their local supermarkets you can buy directly from them online. Happy New Year guys!

[@flanny5419]

"Happy New Year guys!" and what a splendid start with this vlog. Hope you enjoyed the crispy fakon muffin. Well deserved.

[@ThoseVeganGuys]

It were grand x

[@leroybrown7757]

...i do appreciate (and am slightly in awe/envious of) the opulent amount of clearly marked vegan packaging in the U.K. a-MAZING stuffs - bits , things etc - as per usual 🌾🌿 Happy Veganuary🌿🌾

[@ruthsmith1694]

I love being a vegan for ethical reasons. Been so for nearly 13 healthy and fit yrs. The world is changing slowly but surely towards a better kinder one. There are plenty of food choices so no excuse or any reason not to be vegan. For kindness to the animals to humans and the planet.

[@x.soph.x]

When you showed the "i can't believe it's not butter" it made me chuckle cos it reminded me of my late dad who I'm missing immensely at the moment, 2nd Xmas without him.........he used to call it "must be butter". 😂😂 😊😊😊 and then the ad for your book popped up and made me smile too, my dad was a pigeon fancier lol, so thankyou for brightening my day.😊 love, hugs and a happy new year both xxx

[@janegoodfellow1529]

I absolutely loved the 15p root veg in Tesco over the festive season! Sad it's over but pleased they're still discounting some veg into the new year.

[@georginabird9354]

I have that grower harvest soya milk 50 pence and it’s brilliant and it doesn’t curdle xx❤

[@jennymatthews4901]

Happy new year guys onward and upwards

[@daniellecomeau2996]

The produce section is amazing.

[@ThoseVeganGuys]

@@daniellecomeau2996 it really is

[@janegoodfellow1529]

Lovely to see you on NYD. Getting the year off to a good start.

[@RainbowVegansRock]

Tesco is still my favourite supermarket. Happy Veganuary!

[@robingill7363]

Happy New Year TVG. Best wishes for 2025. Bang no messing with you and straight into vlogs and veganuary. Great intro and overview of Tesco for anyone new to veganuary and plant based eating. Well done to anyone new to being vegan and starting your vegan journey.

[@lindajo1840]

So helpful, for vegans old and new, well done, and thank you. All the Best. ❤💚👍

[@fionahaggarty4012]

Happy New Year! I shop quite a bit in tesco as its nearby but you still manage to find things I've missed Love these vlogs so helpful

[@The-Good-Life-Off-Grid]

Yes I wasn’t very keen on the beans and sausage one myself, but I love the one lovely and creamy soup. video. Thank you for sharing once again take care it’s snowing here very ices here Bsafe 😊

[@Addified]

10 year vegan here and even I always learn tons from these shopping vlogs! Great to know the La Vie bacon is good as I’ve always steered clear of faux bacons since trying the This Isn’t one and not loving it. Must give it a try 👍🏻 I also had no idea Tesco also did their own brand tofu in a smoked version, that’ll be on my shopping list for next time and thanks for the rec on that brand of kimchi too 👌🏻 I agree Naturli is the best vegan spread by far, but when I can’t get hold of it, Lurpak plant based and Vitalite are my solid alternatives ✊🏻

[@Hummus420]

As non native English speaker your voice and accent is so soothing 💚😋👍should be making commercials for vegan foods 👏🌱✌️

[@janegoodfellow1529]

Absolutely! Both the guys have lovely voices ❤

[@Addified]

I have said the same!

[@SUZANNEJAGGERS]

Happy VEGAN New Year, to both of you.❤❤🎉🎉🐾🐾🐖🐮🐓

[@teresawright5326]

The Tesco naan in the aisle with popadoms are labelled vegan plain, garlic and peshwari xx

[@davidjones6470]

Happy New years lads, Excellent upload as always,

[@marcharian2343]

nicely timed for my big Tesco shop next week. Thank you Paul and Jason

[@michellesetzer9366]

Love this post. Just back from 3 weeks in Scotland where I had a Tesco right across the street. Saw all of these items. I was in heaven as a vegan there! Choices and prices were amazing.

[@ruthsmith1694]

Thanks guys for the Tesco vegan tour. Much appreciated.

[@chrissiehart22]

Happy New Year guys x

[@ScentedWithLee]

Thanks for the new year update. I was disappointed with the Lurpak for the price. The “Eat Plants without Palm” spread and block are both nice.

[@janegoodfellow1529]

I always buy the 50p soya unsweetened. I don't have milk in drinks but find it great for cereal, cooking/baking or just drinking straight 🥛🌱😋

[@janegoodfellow1529]

A small but perfect haul in your trolley ❤🛒

[@craftlover9702]

I'm astounded by the Vegan choices in the UK.... I'm in the US and the places I shop have NOTHING compared to what you just showed. It's like it's an after thought, one tiny frozen section with 2-3 brands and that's it. Our Aldi's do offer Tofu and a few items, burgers, chick'n patties and that also is about it... I've never seen half of the brands you mentioned...

[@ThoseVeganGuys]

We hear this quite a lot. We're very lucky over here

[@craftlover9702]

@@ThoseVeganGuys Yes and your prices are great as well!!

[@bexyweewaggys]

I thought Publix had a great selection of vegan stuff and also Whole Foods is amazing for vegans. When I was there I saw full sized birthday cakes on the counter!

[@zcs9399]

And this is just Tesco. Waitrose and Sainsbury's have some good bits too!

[@LeaKhn]

Tesco is definitely leading the way! Squeaky Bean is our go-to meat replacement, Imran’s a huge fan of the smoked salmon. I found the crispy bacon to be very good! I’d recommend the Ginsters garlic mushroom slice to eat on the go. It’s lovely! Tofoo for the win. I’ve had it for 2 separate meals this very day! Flora spreadable is our preference, wasn’t impressed with Lurpak Can personally vouch for the salted caramel iced dessert. It’s proper good!

[@helenx2852]

I have the 50p soya milk every day in tea and porridge, it's great.

[@janegoodfellow1529]

Me too. Way, WAY cheaper than most of the others.

[@lornam4596]

Same - I use it in everything. It's UHT so I buy 10 at a time for online deliveries.

[@sarahweir3]

Happy New Year! 🎉

[@IvanaEsc]

You NEED to try the squeaky bean chorizo. It’s incredible, especially straight out the pack.

[@AtheistEve]

For fish fans, their tuna is worth a try, too.

[@TraceyLTims]

Happy New Year guys, what an incredible variety you showed, very impressive ❤❤

[@nigelfrazer-ashbrook533]

Just found you guys and love the videos, so down to earth and honest. The juicy marble steaks are out of this world. Happy New Year to you both🥳x

[@DreamClean]

You are such lovely blokes :D

[@ThoseVeganGuys]

Thank you

[@janegoodfellow1529]

Interesting observation about the posh supermarkets labelling their cleaning products. Pressure from their customer base, I guess, which is heartening. The M&S furniture polish is the only clearly marked I can find that has "that" glorious furniture polish smell 👃

[@cantstoplion]

Happy New Year loves! 💜🩵💜🩵👍🏼🤗🤗❌⭕️❌⭕️

[@janegoodfellow1529]

I get through SO much of that lovely peanut butter, on toast, crackers or oatcakes 🥜🍞!

[@mumzilla6584]

Great as always guys 👍👍

[@LeighSmyth-v6u]

Happy New Year and thanks for another great vlog!xx

[@janeknight3434]

Our Tesco was awful this Christmas. No plant chef dips, no vegan Camembert, hardly any vegan party food. The dips was the biggest disappointment as they only ever do them at Christmas for some reason and this year they didn’t even bother then.

[@samphillips9109]

Hi guys, I'm doing Veganuary and I'm really need help with crisps, as I'm a real crisp girl! It started really well, until I became hungry in mid afternoon! Hope you a great new year! The smoked Cathedral City is LUSH!

[@ThoseVeganGuys]

@@samphillips9109 so you've already eaten something not vegan? Blips happen. There are so many crisps clearly marked vegan. Just look at the labels! Like we always say. The more you look the more you find. And don't forget all our other shopping vlogs.

[@lauraamypacey5087]

Tesco finest cheese and onion share bags are clearly marked vegan! As a cheese girl I can 100% vouch for them! The only issue is trying to not eat the whole bag haha!xx

[@janegoodfellow1529]

​​@@lauraamypacey5087ooh, yes, they're superb! I also love the Tesco freefrom cheese balls and cheesy tortilla chips - SOOO cheesy!

[@lorrainesveganallotment887]

Tesco Finest Beef and Horseradish crisps are AMAZING. Most of the range is vegan.

[@heatherjessaca3914]

​@@lauraamypacey5087 these are the best chips I've ever had. I packed 3 when I returned to Hawaii in November. Wasn't enough.

[@little_becky]

22:18 home bargains sometimes have banana Jamie dodgers which are so good

[@sugarplumfairycakes]

What a lovely cozy way to encourage veganism!

[@peter_kropotkin_]

Thank you

[@janemsxrayspecs9843]

Let's know what the Cathedral Smoked is like pls lads. Maybe a taste test? PS not much doing new for veganuary at Tesco's then!

[@janegoodfellow1529]

I think the guys used it in a pie, and spoke highly of it. All the CC plant-based cheeses would be great, I'd imagine.

[@janegoodfellow1529]

Yes, decades of eating those glorious LM pies ❤🥧 Pretty sure Linda would have become vegan had she lived, and Paul too perhaps?

[@ThoseVeganGuys]

Agree

[@fat_vegan_slim]

Might be worth mentioning, when it comes to fruit and veg, that waxed lemons/limes/oranges etc are not vegan because the "wax" is made from beetles 😢 Thanks for another great shopping vlog!

[@janeleach9064]

Happy New Year Guys Thanks for the video. I bought the Squeaky Bean bacon( it was awful, just too much salt on it) I wouldn’t recommend it. Like you the La Vie one is nice( but expensive).

[@ThoseVeganGuys]

We enjoyed the Bacon and absolutely would recommend it.

[@janegoodfellow1529]

Ooh, that bolognese ravioli! On the wishlist now 🍝

[@zcs9399]

I struggle with the cheese texture 😢 And I love cheese. Violife is the only one I like so far.

[@zenstrain6647]

New here. Jealous of the variety you have available to you! Where I am I’m lucky to have more than one or two brand options vegan products.

[@ThoseVeganGuys]

@@zenstrain6647 we hear this too much. The world needs to get on it

[@beekind3459]

They do indeed but do try making your own stuff from scratch too. TVG's have some great recipe vlogs using every day ingredients (sweet potato maç n cheese comes to mind). I made the 86 eats turkey alternative this year and it's fab and made from easy to find ingredients. X

[@zenstrain6647]

@ I will check their recipes out. I’m already intrigued by the 86 eats turkey. Thanks.

[@heatherjessaca3914]

The Eocked Ravioli are the bomb, so good.

[@tracysmith-yv5lt]

happy new year

[@chrissiehart22]

This isn't rang are changing branding so maybe why some aren't on shelves at mo! I picked up sausages today at Morrisons and it was new packaging x

[@chrissiehart22]

Happy New Year guys x

0:30 happy new year 🎉

[@LondonEve24]

I love you two!

[@welcomeback2mychannel]

Quorn changing so much of their range from vegan to vegetarian is incredibly frustrating. Convinced they didn't actually change the recipe, just changed the label to shut people up. Why would the last ingredient be egg white if it's so key?

[@bexyweewaggys]

Does anyone remember when Swedish Glace had a Neapolitan ice cream or am I imagining it lol 😅 it was lush

[@ThoseVeganGuys]

No never saw it

[@AtheistEve]

They did a pear version, which was fabulous.

[@tonycasey3183]

12.40 For me, tofu has a horrible aftertaste, generally. HOWEVER the ToFoo brand does not and neither do the tofu, non-refrigerated cartons. So, if, like me, you thought you didn't like tofu, try these.

[@heatherjessaca3914]

When I'm in London, TESCO is my store to shop. Aloha from Hawaii. London, I'll see you in 2026.

[@indef2def]

Happy 45x45, you wonderful people!

[@vegan_teen2811]

Which tescos is this? My local tescos, despite being really big , doesn't have good vegan cheese or as many plant milks as in the one you visited in this video. It had fantastic vegan meats though!!

[@ThoseVeganGuys]

This is Oldham

[@oregonchika]

Pretty much all your staples are cheaper than here, except one thing... tofu. Ours is quite a lot cheaper. That's something I suppose 😂 Thankfully I'm a big fan of it.

[@LondonEve24]

Cathedral City plant based is the best vegan cheese.

[@alanesq1]

May be worth mentioning booze as this often seems to get overlooked, especially in pubs it can be difficult to know which are ok

[@ThoseVeganGuys]

We mention it in most vlogs Alan. And as we always say check your labels that goes for alcohol too.

[@AtheistEve]

Aldi is one of the best for booze. Their labelling is so clear on the back. And they also do organic versions. That’s my New Year’s resolution - buying far more organic food, specially fresh veg and breads.

[@alanesq1]

@@AtheistEve When I first went vegan nothing was labelled and often when shopping the only one I could remember that was vegan ok was Special Brew, in the end I actually started to like it - lol

[@barrydevonshire9749]

Glebe farm oat milk is number one look out for it

[@marydower2685]

So excited for the veganuary.

[@teresawright5326]

Happy New Year 🎉 I found a plant milk maker on Clubcard Price at £50 Didn't buy it as I have a very small kitchen xx
