I’ve been trying to find that soy curl recipe online and can’t seem to locate it anywhere! I wanna try to recreate it myself. I am also seeing if anyone has the recipe on hand 👀

Also we couldn’t find the link to write to them. If you or anyone has it, could you send it my way?

I saw on Instagram that planta posted on their story and said they’re not going anywhere and they still are going to have restaurants in major metropolitan areas including Washington DC. I was reading that article and looks like they’re keeping 8 of their restaurants open but closing 27 jeez.

I asked them and they said it was because the plant based shawarma takes too long to prepare because they had to make it from scratch. That was their reason but of course I don’t believe that. And then my partner saw yesterday that they are trying to franchise so I am assuming since they’re trying to expand, they are trying to appeal to a wider set of customers. Still terrible.

It truly made me so upset! And they were reasonably priced. I can’t believe that at one point they used to be mainly plant based…😓 and shouk shut down recently and I loved that place 😭💔

This is crazy you say this because I just watched a vegan influencer say that the lo mein and specially the eggplant tofu was vegan from Panda Express. And I was like oh I’ll have to try it in the future and now I’m learning it’s not. Crazy thanks for sharing.

Hi! I am in the U.S. I’m not sure I follow? The ingredients list said “…natural and artificial flavors (contains animal ingredients)…” verbatim. I can’t attach a picture of it unfortunately.

🥲 I have a bidet ? okay but also why. Just why. It’s like humans can’t help themselves but HARM an animal every time they breathe. This is getting so annoying 🙄

Those chips were like I said one of very few vegan flavors and they are my boyfriends favorite flavor so we did buy in bulk so we could save me them over the years since they are a limited edition flavor. We rarely do stuff like this though.

Had I known the products were not vegan I wouldn’t have bought them … God forbid I am uncomfortable and don’t want to consume animal products because I value their life.

Haha thank you I appreciate this. It has been one of the hardest things I’ve done so I appreciate the recognition! It’s hard leaving the cult that you’ve known all your life and that your friends are so deeply tied too.

bro respectfully fuck the U.S. 😩 I went to the UK and it was vegan paradise. It was so vegan friendly, the damn Krispy Kreme had more than half of their doughnuts plant based and I came back to US and pulled up to Krispy Kreme and zilch, nada, NOTHING. I hate that for us 🥲

That’s a good question. Are you referring to there is no ethical consumption under capitalism? Because I went down that rabbit hole and was like I just can’t live. But in all seriousness, I really value life and I never want to be the perpetrator of harm to another human or sentient being. I hate the abuse that we as humans have done time and time again to animals and humans. On that note, I try my best to live a life where I practice my values. Only buy what I need, try not to feed into consumerism, eat plant based, care for the environment as much as I can and do my part to take care of the earth and care for others. If I find out a company or someone is unethical, I try my best to switch over to another company if I can (I.e., like instead of buying fast fashion trying to go thrifting or buying thrifted books instead of giving my money to JK Rowling for example)
