If you have ever owned a pet, getting yourself to eat meat always feels like a betrayal to your furry friend. Gladly, there’s always the option of going vegan/vegetarian. But where can you find that vegan cafe or restaurant while traveling around the world?
We have a handy little app for that called HappyCow! 🙂
Why go vegan?
Other than having compassion for fellow animals, there are numerous reasons why one should go vegan. Studies show that vegans have better heart health, and have a lower chance of getting a heart attack. They also have lower chances of getting obese, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, just to name a few. Vegans also have better weight control, so if you have been striving to get that six-pack, here’s one sure way to do it.
So what does it mean to go vegan? Here’s a list of foods that will no longer feature in your menu.
- Meat.
- Milk or any milk products eg cheese
- Egg or any egg products.
With this in mind, there’s a wide variety of easy vegan recipes, vegan restaurants, and options for you on HappyCow.
How we stay healthy on the road? 10k steps a day, limit our daily intake of sugar, supplements from Onnit, stay under our calorie limit, and train 3 times a week for a solid hour.
HappyCow gives you options on options
The main reason most people opt out of being a vegan is because of the food options. I believe that variety is the spice of life, and hadn’t found a wide variety of vegan meals. Then I found HappyCow, with their extensive collection of vegan recipes and options, and had to try them out. From spicy chili to vegan burgers, HappyCow has an extensive collection of easy to follow recipes available to the public.
With HappyCow, you get the ultimate vegan guide. This website not only offers numerous restaurant suggestions, but it also has a feature that gives you the restaurants nearest you. This comes in handy whenever you’re on the move. It also shows the highest-rated restaurants so you can get your hands on only the most scrumptious vegan meals.
It also has an extensive community of like-minded individuals, and ways to earn badges and get rated as a member. This forum of people from all around the world allows an exchange of vegan-related ideas, adding to your knowledge, and as we all know, knowledge is power.

More than that though is the forum where we can all exchange ideas on our vegan or vegetarian likeness. I think HappyCow is a must for all adventurous vegans. What do you think? Will you get HappyCow? 🙂
