Here are some quick tips on how you can stick to a vegan diet whilst at college or university.

Why Is Vegan Is a Trigger Word?
Veganism: a Trigger Word My first encounter with the terminology trigger word was in high school English class. It is a literary device used in literature—go figure—to provoke intended emotions in the audience. Some examples of a trigger word include powerless, mournful, and despicable. The word's purposes are to lay down the framework and set the tone for the theme or message that the author aims to illustrate. In the scenario of creative literature, the tool is used to get a reaction that is mutually beneficial. People enjoy reading books that involve their emotions, and writers want people to enjoy their book. It’s a win-win. Now, for the word veganism and vegan, it is a different scenario that is, however, connected to this one the underlying concept of a trigger word.

10 Best Vegetarian and Vegan Cookbooks That You Must Have in Your Kitchen
Whether you're a vegetarian, vegan, or simply want to whip up healthy meals for your diet, you know that there are so many recipes out there that include all-organic ingredients without the use of animal products. Even when we're aware of this, some of us tend to get lost or don't even know where to start. I know I'm lost whenever I want to make vegan dishes for myself every now and then. If you're not a vegan and just want to try out some vegan meals, it can be difficult to find substitutions for some of your commonly-used ingredients; if you're just beginning a vegan journey, or you're living a veggie lifestyle but have little experience in the kitchen, suddenly taking on the task of cooking a vegan meal can feel overwhelming.

The Bronx Vegan Eats: Hungry Bird. Top Story - May 2018.
Indian food can never do wrong in my eyes. It’s the melodious blend of spices and textures that makes me crave this cuisine on special days. The last time I had Indian food was before my vegan transition where I was quite obsessed with chicken tikka masala and other meals that included meat. I thought my days of enjoying this food was over, until I stumbled upon Healthy Bird.

7 Quick Tips for a New Vegan
1. Take your time. Despite the hype, going vegan is not an easy task for most people. To the majority, it is a major life changing decision. And with any major decision, it requires patience, research, and a well thought-out plan. Often people try to go cold turkey and before they know it, they are back on the meat train. Give yourself some wiggle room. Instead of completely cutting out all meat and dairy, try to incorporate meatless meals a few days a week.

Veganism Sucks
Let me just start off by saying, veganism is on the rise, you know it, I know it, the vegan population has grown by over 600% in the US in the last five years. With that comes a lot of truth, and a lot of lies about what it means to be vegan and the effect it has on you and the world around you. I just wanted to clear the air a little bit and address some of the reasons why it is NOT a good idea to go vegan from experience.

Best Vegan Spots in London
Vegan mania is fast setting in. Veganuary reportedly saw the number of participants reach over 150,000, many deciding to stay Vegan even after January came to an end, whether you are a full time, lifelong Vegan, a part time Vegan, a health conscious Vegan, or a Vegan against animal cruelty, or maybe you just want to see what all the fuss is about. I fell in love with Veganism around 6 months ago after going back and forth being a vegetarian/pescatarian my entire life. I had always wanted to go Vegan and never fully given myself the push, until I watched What The Health. It was all I needed to nudge me to being a full time committed Vegan, so in love with my new lifestyle (not in a preachy 'EVERYONE SHOULD BE VEGAN’ type way) that I wanted to share some of my favourite spots in London. For visiting Vegans, for those that want to try something new, or for London Vegans that maybe need somewhere new to frequent, here are my favourites.
