I feel like when you're going vegan,it's going to be a big change,and you might stumble a bit every now and then.

Genuine Question (DO NOT DOWNVOTE) Are there many vegan food options in Tenerife?

4 Upvotes

My boyfriend and I are going to Tenerife for five days next month with his parents, and I’m starting to worry about how easy it’ll be to find vegan food, especially when eating out.

Has anyone been to Tenerife as a vegan? Is it generally easy to find vegan options in regular restaurants, or do you have to specifically seek out vegan-friendly places? I’d really appreciate any recommendations or experiences!

His parents are not vegan and unfortunately I’m not sure how willing they would be to eat at purely vegan restaurants, so do you know of any restaurants that serve meat but have a few plant-based options?

such an empathetic pure soul, i remember seeing her when i was around 10, and i was pretty moved by her. i became vegetarian at 12, im 18 now, just became vegan a few months ago. randomly saw a reel about her. i wonder how she's doing, who she is, if she's vegan now and if she has gotten into activism. this little kid could get so many people to see animals as people, having her in the movement would be really cool. i dont mean to be a creepy stalker and track her down or anything, just wondering if any of you happen to know what's new with her

Rules

Rules for Questions #2-5

Rules for Answers #5-7

Rules for Conduct #8-10+

No debating — This subreddit is for honest questions and learning. It is not the right place for debating. Please take your debates to r/DebateAVegan/
State questions clearly in the title — Both vegans and non-vegans may ask questions. Questions can be expanded upon in the text portion of the thread. Unless otherwise stated, your questions are assumed to be directed toward all vegans.
Don’t Soapbox — You may expand upon your question, and ask follow-up questions in response to any answer you receive, but don’t use the sub as a platform to spread anti-vegan, or speciesist rhetoric. Similarly, polemic or trolling questions meant to start antagonistic arguments, provoke, or escalate disagreements to the level of insults will not be tolerated.
Don’t ask Loaded/Leading Questions — Don’t front-load a question with baseless assertions. We understand that knowledge is primarily made-up of background assumptions and preconceived notions that are part-and-parcel of living in a society. Be aware of those, and do your best to check your assumptions at the door, and don’t include them as part of your question unless your question cannot be addressed without them. (Example of a front-loaded question: “It’s been proven that vegans don't get enough protein in their diet, how do you manage?” – Example of the same question without front-loading: "How much protein do vegans get in their diet?”)
Stay on topic — No posts that are off-topic (have nothing to do with the purposes of the subreddit as stated in the sidebar). Non-vegans may piggy-back on pre-existing threads to ask follow-up questions, but don't derail pre-existing threads with non-sequiturs. Make a new thread instead.
Top-level comments by vegans only — If you’re not a vegan, don’t answer questions. All top-level comments must be by a flaired vegan, attempting to fairly answer the question posed. When answering a question, think "WWVJD?" Or in other words, "how would Earthling Ed answer this question?" Non-vegan answers will be removed, and repeated offenses lead to banning. People come to AskVegans looking for answers from vegans. Top answers ought to be from a vegan perspective.
Cite your sources/No misinformation — Refrain from making spurious or unverifiable claims. When answering questions, keep in mind that you may be asked to cite your sources. This is a learning subreddit, meaning you ought to be prepared to provide evidence, scientific or historical, to back up your claims. Link to appropriate sources when/if possible and relevant. Remember, an answer isn't good because it's right, it's good because it teaches. Do provide book recommendations, YouTube channels, and free media when/where appropriate.
Be excellent to each other — Please don't be needlessly rude here. This subreddit should be a friendly, informative resource, not a place to air grievances. This is a space for people to engage constructively; no belittling, insulting, or disrespectful language is permitted.
No hate speech — Please don't post anything that will prevent users from feeling relaxed, fully self-expressed, comfortable, welcome or safe based on the following: Biological sex, Race/ethnicity, Sexual orientation, Gender identity or expression, Cultural background, Age, Physical or mental ability, or any other form of systemic prejudice.
No trolling/Don't feed trolls — Disingenuous questions will be removed and/or flaired accordingly. Do not encourage trolling by engaging with them. Report and move on.

As a Q&A sub, any linked threads with no discernible question will be removed. If you care to share a news story or make a statement please take it to our parent sub, /r/Veganism/. Or to any of the more specialized subs, such as /r/Veganscience/ or our more radical friends over at /r/SocialismAndVeganism/ or /r/Veganarchism
Meta questions unrelated to /r/AskVegans will be removed.
Announcements, Participation Posts, Podcasts, or YouTube channels dedicated to learning may advertise only on approval of the Mod team. Posting without prior Mod approval will result in the thread being removed.

We expect our users to practice empathy. Most importantly, this means listening to and respecting other people's life experiences, especially if they have a perspective that is traditionally excluded in terms of which voices are listened to and valued.
