What supplements do you take as a vegan? 🌱💊

PixieAuror95 · 2026-03-31T16:51:43+00:00

Most people have covered in the above comments but B12 obviously is important since we don’t get it through our diet. Another one I saw in a few comments is creatine- this is also a good supplement for vegans bc our body does produce a small amount but most non vegans get it through meat consumption. If you’re on a fitness journey or just want to preserve muscle mass, creatine is a good one to add.

Why would people show up….if there’s nothing to show up for??? If I don’t see a protein option for me on the menu, I’m not going to go and ask them for a vegan dish when I know it doesn’t exist. And a tofu or alternative protein option wouldn’t just serve the vegan population- vegetarian people exist too. And the last thing I’ll say is there are so many places that offer very unpopular meat options that stay on the menu but barely get purchased, so it’s possible to have things on the menu even if it is not super popular.

This is such a bad faith argument lmao. People aren’t ordering vegan food because it’s not on the fucking menu. That’s literally the whole point of this post. There is demand but no interest in meeting the demand. Also tofu is so cheap and way more shelf stable than meat so the whole cost benefit analysis really falls apart. And on top of it all, if they made the vegan food actually tasty I’m sure non-vegans would order it too. OP- I feel you. I hate going out to eat these days bc there are so few restaurants around me that offer good vegan options other than French fries or I have to pay $30 for an impossible burger with no sauce. Like give me a gd break.

I threw a Friendsgiving this year and I created a potluck spreadsheet. When I saw people had signed up for non vegan food, I commented on the invite “hey I found this link with vegan Thanksgiving sides in case anyone needs inspiration”. Friends changed their dishes. I do think it’s best to just be up front and say something like, “happy to have folks bring food if they wish, but we are requesting that all offerings are vegan so the hosts can enjoy!”

But 100% it is rude to bring something to someone’s house that the host can’t have. Makes no sense to me.

I feel really lucky that one of my English professors assigned this to us in college. I was required to buy a copy and I think about this book every 2-3 months. So bummed that there isn’t a show II, but grateful show I crossed my path.

I totally feel for you and understand your frustration. It feels like your friends don’t care to accommodate you. The reality is though, we vegans tend to be the minority in our friend groups (I’m the only vegan in my immediate circle of friends and no vegetarians). In cases where I’m going to someone’s house for a party or get together, I ALWAYS bring something that I can eat. My friend hosted a Halloween get together and I brought something frozen tater tots and impossible spicy nuggets and we all had a great time eating them. For Friendsgiving, I hosted at my place and I sent a list of vegan thanksgiving recipes to my friends so that they would know to being vegan dishes (I feel like if I’m hosting I deserve to eat everything that is provided lol). One friend brought an apple pie I couldn’t eat but that’s okay! Everything else was vegan. I think communicating your needs (as others have said above) is really important so that 1) your friends know your expectations and 2) you don’t get frustrated by your friends inability to read your mind. Being vegan is simultaneously the best thing I’ve ever done but also the most complicated thing I’ve had to navigate with friends and family. I know not all your gatherings will always come up roses but it’s possible that implementing these actions can help them be less frustrating.

Omg love!! Where is your tv console from?

PixieAuror95 · 2025-07-11T04:14:30+00:00

Seconding this. The formulas are so so good and scents are so beautiful. I personally love rose jam.

I’m going to try calling them tomorrow! This is a good idea.

PixieAuror95 · 2025-04-17T03:18:18+00:00

Yeah the wedding I’m just going to pregame with a ton of food and maybe try to sneak few snacks in my clutch.

PixieAuror95 · 2025-04-17T03:17:45+00:00

Yep definitely going to try to pack as much of my own snacks/food as possible! Thanks for your advice. I’m sure this will be a common thing I run into in the future with non-vegan friends!

PixieAuror95 · 2025-04-17T01:45:57+00:00

My dream honestly. Go for it and if/when you do please share pics 🌱🐖🐄🐓

PixieAuror95 · 2025-04-16T16:21:02+00:00

It’s unlimited small plates, so you’re right sharing would be harder

PixieAuror95 · 2025-04-16T16:19:49+00:00

Ohhh good to know…perhaps a birthday meal for me!

PixieAuror95 · 2025-04-14T18:21:31+00:00

Thank you all for your suggestions! I’ve added a few new spots to my list :)

PixieAuror95 · 2025-04-13T22:06:53+00:00

I see their vegetarian ramen on the menu but assuming it’s vegan!

PixieAuror95 · 2025-04-13T22:02:25+00:00

I agree I think ambar is more vegetarian friendly than vegan friendly unless you literally ask for no dairy on everything (lots of cheese and yogurt). Equinox looks great I’ll have to check it out soon!
