Any vegans here?

Licorice?

Sadly they contain gelatine…

I've been veggie for just over 2 years now and I am swaying more and more towards moving to veganism.

The only thing thats stopped me so far is the switch to no cheese but as my main reason for not eating meat is animal welfare, it doesn't sit right with me that I haven't made the full switch yet.

Cheese was a big one for me and I just went for it.

After a 6 months I was with friends and they got the ususal cheese board out - I had a chunk.
I had a different experience - I worked out its a chunk of fat with some flavourings.
Albeit tasty

I've reduced my meat eating a lot recently, especially the red meat. I'm broadly vegetarian much of the time. I'm not sure if I could ever go full vegan though, I'd miss eggs too much. Is there a good vegan sub for eggs?

Tofu for scrambled eggs, poached eggs are almost impossible unless you go to a restaurant, used to have vegan fried egg and sausage baps from a market in Brighton but they've gone now. For egg replacement aquafaba is great for meringue etc

Looks like I just need to nail a load of coconut milk then. Luckily I quite like it.

No.

The things I miss most are chorizo/pizza and chilli con carne. That said, I’ve not tried one with Quorn yet and I expect it’ll probably be decent.

There are plenty of chorizo substitutes out there - not sure how good they are mind.
The Sainsbury’s chorizo sausages were ok (no more than that)

Don’t use quorn at all personally.

Chilli Con Carne - just replace the meat with chopped mushrooms or tempeh
Pizza - I’m assuming you miss the mozzarella?

This is outstanding (get mine from Ocado)
