    Whenever you visit Cali again, you should try Chicana Vegana in Downtown Fullerton. They have amazing Mexican vegan food. The Carne asada fries are bomb 🤤 and then also Soy Concha Bakery in Santa Ana. It’s a whole vegan panaderia where they sell pan dulce. Their vegan gansitos and tres leches cake are my go-to’s, but everything there is delicious.

      You don't know ,but non vegans ,meat eaters actually can make a huge difference on poor animal's condition on farms & everywhere more than vegans or vegetarians !!! As not all of us go vegans ,or even vegetarians ! The meat industry won't care about our ( I am a vegetarian, once vegan for 17 years ) opinions much as we don't give them business !! Lol.
      So ,people like you buying vegan meals / products more helps animals a lot !!! Not to mention,the planet earth !!! So ,I thank you so much for interested in vegan meals & cooking them !!! You're the big part of our future on this beautiful blue planet !!! 👍👍💜🥁🎵🐉🎤🎶💞

It would be interesting for you to do a vegan pizza comparison between Domino’s, Papa John’s, and CiCi’s. (On another pizza note, if you have a Mellow Mushroom pizza place in the PNW, you have to try their vegan options. Soooo gooood!

I also love Pots and Woks in Whittier which is a classic Chinese counter order restaurant but has a full vegan menu with all the classic American Chinese dishes. I'm not a fan of Monty's, but Plant Power is incredible. There is also a new fast food spot in Fullerton that used to just be a pop up called Chicana Vegana.

Two locations in center city, one in West Philly and I'm almost positive there's a location down in D.C. The Hip City buffo ranch with sweet potato fries is my jam. Oh and Goldie, 100% vegan falafel joint with outstanding tahini shakes and vegan tzatziki.

    Excellent Sweet simple vegan video. Haven't eaten much fast food since becoming vegan because we do have options in the UK but they may be limited in the UK compared to the US. Fast food can be expensive and isn't the healthiest way to be vegan so I focus more on a vegan whole foods plant based diet. But I am vegan for the animals and other ethical reasons.
