Greenies Rejoice | The Ultimate Guide To All Things Vegan On The Coast

The best thing about vegan food is that it’s for everyone. Because, newsflash, you don’t actually have to be vegan to eat vegan, crazy we know. To meat eaters it was once thought that a secret society of basket weaving mountain monks held the keys to this mysterious meat-free lifestyle and if you didn’t have the right password (the password is “seeds” just so you know) then you weren’t allowed in. But never fear, it’s 2018 people and the Gold Coast is home to some top-notch vegan choices that not only bring joy to vego’s but delight to the rest of us trying to cut down on our meat intake. Rejoice!
