]]>It Has Plenty of Flavor
When we think of vegan food, let’s banish any preconceived notions of bland salads and flavorless tofu. Instead, imagine a colorful plate bursting with vibrant fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and legumes. Vegan cuisine has evolved into a culinary adventure that tantalizes the senses and nourishes the body in remarkable ways.

One of the most incredible benefits of embracing vegan food is its positive impact on our planet. By opting for plant-based alternatives, we significantly reduce our carbon footprint and help combat climate change. Indeed, choosing vegan options is like giving our planet a big, green hug.
It’s Super Healthy
But it’s not just the environment that benefits from a vegan lifestyle; our health reaps the rewards too. Plant-based diets have been linked to a lower risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, and certain cancers. They are naturally low in saturated fats and cholesterol while being rich in fiber, vitamins, and antioxidants.

]]>Cross-Contamination
Cross-contamination is a huge problem in fast food kitchens because it’s highly likely your plant-based food will come in contact with non-vegan ingredients during the preparation process.
Vegan Food, Lifestyle, Travel (@rachelsvegandiary87)Ethical Concerns
All vegans have their own reason to embrace this lifestyle. If you’re vegan for animals, you should think twice before eating at fast food restaurants because they often participate in animal exploitation, despite offering vegan options.
Unhealthy Options
Food at fast food restaurants is usually packed with calories, fats, and sodium. Their vegan food isn’t immune to these flaws, so it’s better to eat at authentic vegan restaurants with fresh, healthy, and tasty offering.
(@realveganholly)Good Message
Vegan fast food has its bad sides, but that doesn’t necessarily mean it should be avoided at all costs. The spike in demand could inspire fast food brands to introduce more plant-based items prepared in a more ethical way.

“In late 2015, I created About That Food because I wanted to offer a platform to help people who wanted to go on this wonderful journey of becoming vegan,” she shared in an interview with le buzz. “A journey that can sometimes be very confusing and frustrating but essentially is a very exciting and beautiful thing.”
After experimenting and creating her own recipes, her platform slowly grew, until a few years later it has become her full-time job.
“About That Food is meant to be a place to motivate yourself,” says Kutelas, “get inspired, and informed. Veganism isn’t that hard—if I can do it, so can you.”
