MANY people across the country will be changing up their diets for the month and going vegan.
The Veganuary campaign is a month in January where you give up all animal-based products in your diet such as meat, fish, eggs and dairy.
During the 2019 campaign, more than a quarter of a million people tried a vegan diet, while more than 500 brands, restaurants and supermarkets promoted the campaign and launched more than 200 new vegan products and menus in the UK market alone.
If you’re sticking to a vegan diet this month but want to eat out at a restaurant, then this guide could help.
