Vegan (ish) food at the fest.

[madspaceangel]

Last year I was a veggie and found loads of lush stuff to munch (and cheap too!). In fact the veggie food was so nice my hubby has been vegetarian ever since.

I am now ovo-veggie (for anyone who is thinking WTF is that, a lot of people I know do, it means I eat a veggie diet but also eat no dairy products but still eat eggs)

This forum is usually excellent for knowing what to get where so can anyone help me get myself a little mental itinery of where to seek out suitable munch? The problem I mostly have is anything veggie is usually smothered in cheese or full of cream.

I want to get myself a little list ready so when I get hungry I don't get grumpy trying to find places to eat (yes I am one of those horrible people who gets stroppy when hungry).

Hope you can help!

Scarily enough veggies can eat most meat flavoured crisps.....how odd it that?

Vegans generally can't eat many crisps because they all have milk in them....which I think is even scarier.

I fecking Luuurve falafel Funkyfairy. Will hunt that out definately.

If I could get away with it I would be a carnivore however last year I got a plate of some vegan curry type stuff from the Hare Krishnas which I must admit, was very nice cost me nothing aswell!

I know what you mean, with it being such a vast site it can be hard to find niche foods. I have a penchant for veal but am yet to chance upon some at Glastonbury.

The food I really loved was the thali (sorry for spelling)well I think it was called that! it was a really nice chickpea curry just off the entrance from the healing fields well worth the £6 cos you get curry, rice and salad and it is a big plateful

Bravo on your meat free diet.

I find it staggering that people know precisely the conditions farmed animals live in, and exactly what goes on in slaughterhouses, yet continue to stuff their fat faces with artery clogging meat products.

Hey meat eaters, have a look at this, it'll be like porn for you: www.meat.org

P.S. Are chick peas made of chicken?

Laid back: funny you should say that! people make out vegans are all transparent skinned waifs, I recnt had my bloods done and had the healthiest Hb (iron levels for those who don't know what that is) I have EVER had!!!

I am camping in the Pennards (CT!) so the green fields are not too far depending on size of hangover!
