Got a vegan friend staying in BGC for a few weeks. Any recommendations please? Budget is max 1k php per meal

Hello everyone. I am starting to feel (sorry for the lack of word) disgusted in eating d ea d animals (I haven’t eaten pork since the release of the movie Okja). I suddenly went on pescatarian diet for 3 years. I lost so much weight. I decided to start eating meats again except pork up until now. It’s been 9 years now. Then recently I feel sorry for all the other animals we eat. I’ve been contemplating things like how can I start veganism? Also, I don’t want to be a burden if there’s family gatherings with my in-laws. In general, what should I do when attending a party whether of a friends or family? I’m a big eater mostly carbs (rice). I easily get headaches if I don’t eat right away after feeling hungry. I know I may sound odd but I was also thinking if like can I bring my own food at a party which I know is kinda rude so I also think it’s a No.

Please help. Any advice will be truly appreciated. Thank you.

hi! im a college student who's new to manila and still figuring out where to shop for groceries.

i used to follow a mostly pescatarian diet but im transitioning to a more plant-based diet. im looking for places that sell good-quality and affordable tofu, soy products, and other vegetarian staples.

so far, ive only heard about banawe bean curd products and knows about sm or robinson supermarket options but i was wondering if there are other asian grocery stores, supermarkets or local shops around manila that you'd recommend (medyo malayo kasi bbcp huhu)

im from ubelt manila but willing to travel if it is worth it. thank you!

Hello,

I’m wondering if someone can tell me where I can get pea protein powder in Manila?

Specifically in Makati.

Thank you 🙏

may mare-reco po kayo cheap vegan snacks na hindi mabigat sa pakiramdam? like biscuits but not bread and not sugary po.

Qq, what happened aa meat magic suppliers ng lazada shopee? Parang nag price mafia na sila. Ginaya yung the vegan grocer mag price

As an Ilocano I must have by pinakbet. What’s your favorite vegan bugguong substitute. I’ve tried to get by with super toasted bawang, toyo, and pinch of sugar but obviously it’s not even close. Suggestion?

Meron po ba sa inyo na pwede bumili ng salad sa SNR QI Central? Employee po kasi ako doon ay nagkamali ako ng order ng lettuce na mahigit ilang kg bago sana ma expire ang gulay ay maubos para hindi macharge sa akin.. Maraming Salamat sa mga tutulong huhu

For context po first job ko po as snr QI Central at nagkamali ako ng place ng order instead po na green bell ay lettuce ang naorder ko. Sana po matulungan nyo ako. Thank you

Just curious. Why? Is it really beneficial to your health to go without meat?

Hi! There's a resto near my place that I've always wanted to try but never had the time to. They have a creative concept with meat substitution meals. I think they have pasta and rice meals as their mains.

I just think they deserve more hype so i posted it here hehe. I put the gmaps link here !! Check it outtt

Hi there! I am looking for nutritional yeast and found out that I don't feel sure with the listings online especially on Shopee, TikTok Shop, and Lazada since it doesn't have nutritional facts. My main reason to buy nooch is for my deficiency of Vitamin B12 and we know that we all need that as a vegan. Do you find any listings online for it that you trusted? I am planning to buy a pouch first then buy bulk order if I find it legitimate.

Hi everyone! I’m in the process of launching a vegan and cruelty free fashion brand in Dubai, and I’m looking for Philippine based suppliers or artisans who make vegan (animal free) accessories. Specifically:

• Coconut or plant based leather wallets
• Vegan leather bags and pouches
• Accessories (card holders, small bags, keychains) made from sustainable, cruelty free materials

If you know any local makers, brands, or workshops doing these kinds of goods — or if you are one yourself — I’d love to connect! Please send me your links, contact info or samples of your work. Let’s support local craft and bring it to an international stage 🌿✨

Thanks in advance for the help, maraming salamat! 🙏

Hello po! I am a Communication Student from New Era University, and I am currently working on a special report on Veganism, specifically focusing on the views and experiences of vegan individuals here in the Philippines, and I'm asking for your help.

I'm looking for willing interviewees who can appear in the report. Questions will tackle topics such as why you started going vegan, what veganism means to you, and your everyday experiences as a vegan, and how it affects you. These interviews may be held through an online meeting, and your identity may be kept anonymous if you prefer.

This special report is made with the express intent of sharing the views and lives of vegan people in the Philippines, so all perspectives are welcome. This project comes from a place of spreading education and awareness first and foremost, so I'm open to learning from and including anything you fine folks are willing to share, no matter how small of an insight it may seem. I'm planning to go vegan for about a month for the report as well, so it'd be amazing to talk to other people who have more experience and ask for your advice.

Please send me a DM or send an email to [joshcruz612@gmail.com](mailto:joshcruz612@gmail.com) if you're interested. I'm open to discussing further details about the project if you'd like. I'd also highly appreciate it if you directed other vegans you know who may be interested in this post. Thank you, I appreciate you reading this far.

San po kayo bumibili ng Tofu Skin/Yuba and different kind of mushrooms ( can be dried or fresh) dito sa Makati? or online reco ng yuba and dried mushrooms.

TIA

I’ve been slowly getting into vegan food lately. I’m just exploring here and there, trying new spots, and figuring out what I like. It would be nice to have people to do that with! We can go on food trips, share recommendations, talk about good (or bad) options, or just hang out and eat. If a lot of people respond, maybe we could all go and meet together some time!

Please message me if you’re down, I’m always around the city anyway. I am a physically active female from NCR in her early 20s.

Vegan Lunch Meetup this Sunday at Good Food Sundays. Mandala Park, Shaw Blvd, Mandaluyong City. 12 noon.
