Vegans often have a particularly hard time keeping a balanced vegan diet when traveling. A new city can be overwhelming, and having to find and keep a vegan diet only adds to that confusion. The following tips can help a vegan traveler avoid mistakes and temptations.
Eating out is often difficult in for vegans, even in their hometown. For travelers, unfamiliarity can add to this confusion. When picking a restaurant there are several tips to keep in mind. Most Indian, Chinese, Thai, Mexican, Italian, and other ethnic restaurants offer some vegan options. Unlike most Americans, much of the world’s population do not rely on meat for their main protein source. However this is not always a safe bet. Many ethnic foods hide fish or other animal products in their foods. Some Italian sauces have anchovies, Mexican been are sometimes cooked with pork or lard, and many Asian foods have seafood sauces, even in meals that contain tofu. The best way to avoid this is to study the menu carefully, and when in doubt ask. Calling ahead is also helpful. Often even restaurants that do not normally have vegan items on the menu will prepare a special meal if you call ahead and ask.
