    Default Favourite foods as a kid ? (were they vegan)

    What were your favourite foods as a kid? I got this inspiration from my kids as even though they're are being raised vegan, -I've realized that although I wasn't raised as a vegan, (I stopped eating meat when I was 11) my favourite foods were vegan...


    they were :

    Fruit,especially clementimes (any kind really, although it was quite sparse in our household)

    banana sandwiches

    coleslaw - shredded carrot, sandwiches

    Noodles with a spicy sauce

    Hmmm .... I was a bit of a fussy kid though I do remember liking carrots a lot (still do!)

    rice

    two minute noodles

    ice cream

    chocolate anything

    pears
    I hate it when I'm studying and a velociraptor throws bananas on me.

    Marmite on toast. Beans on toast. Toast on toast

    Not sure if the versions I had then were vegan but they certainly adapt easily - and I have jettisoned the Marmite in favour of Natex, before someone points out the error of my ways

    Hmm... Trying to think... cheese. Chicken nuggets from McDonald's (my mom always bought us happy meals). Ice cream. Fried shrimp. Fried, fried, fried.

    Ew. lol Going vegan was easy, though. I never miss any of that junk. I'm healthier for not eating it.

    My choices were not all vegan: french fries, ice-cream, chocolate,... I guess every unhealthy thing that exists on earth!!
    I am proud to say that my eating habits now have nothing to do with those, but this was achieved in a many years' process.!
    Veganism came much later, as a corner stone to healthy eating and habits.

    -Humitas (often vegan!)
    -Roe
    -McD's1/4# w/ cheese
    -chicken nuggets

    -completos (pic here)
    -Churrascos (same file)
    -empanadas de queso
    -calzones rotos (vegan!)
    -parrillada
    -ensalada chilena (vegan!)
    -scrambled eggs
    -Pears and apples (vegan and raw)

    but my all time favorite is vegan.

    -Spaghetti with pomodoro sauce (VEGAN!!!)
    context is everything

    cucumbers
    carrots
    Angel Delight (pudding mix)
    coffee and walnut cake
    roast potatoes
    cabbage

    still really like all of the above with the obvious exception of Angel Delight - but i would definitely buy a vegan version!

    I remember my childhood favourite foods being chips and any sort of processed, breaded, shaped chicken (ie nuggets, fingers, o's).

    That is great that you are raising your children as vegans.

    My favourite foods were:

    Chocolate
    Crisps
    McDonalds (why, why, why?!!)
    Lasagne
    Cheese
    Marmite
    Pizza

    So mostly not vegan. I would still rank chocolate, lasagne (vegan) and Marmite (not the brand, but the yeast extract spread) as favourites now.

    Hot Cheetos....i will forever miss these
    grilled cheese sandwiches
    taco bell ANYTHING
    chorizo- though soyrizo is just as good
    fried eggs with the yolk running- obviously not vegan
    nachos- vegan nachos just aren't the same, but i don't miss them at all
    sailsbury steak tv dinners- meh don't miss these at all
    kraft macoroni and cheese-sometimes i miss this...
    m&Ms.... this kind of makes me sad
    cool ranch doritos- not vegan and is heart breaking...

    but over all no food i miss is worth me going back.

    I like how none of the foods i liked were healthy for me. no wonder i was a pudgy kid.

    God hot cheetos. Last thing I gave up before going vegan. Literally used to eat a bag a day at minimum. I was also very fat.
    And lumpia! MAN. My mother used to date a man from Guam and his mother told her how to make the stuff, along with what I think is called adobo-where you take a huge pot and fill it with vinegar and soy sauce and a little beer, and throw in some bay leaves and then cook chicken (or more usually pork) in it until the skin slides off.
    She also taught my mom how to make this stuff that goes on rice, where it's soy sauce and white vinegar and you take a chili pepper and roast it over the stove and cut it up and put it in there along with sliced cucumber, onion, carrot and tomato. Let it sit in the fridge for a day. YUM!

    Exactly. Chips are my staple food. I could eat chips all day long. I noticed that the 99 cent stores usually have a lot of chip variety that happens to be vegan. YAY for me!

    When I see vegan Tings you'll be the first to know!

    yup! purple bag... they don't taste anything like the traditional Doritos, but I love the flavor (and the way they load on their flavors compared to other brands), and you get the Dorito texture. mmm

    Yes, they were both two of my absolute favourites.

    Sweets and crisps I loved as well.

    Yes, any type of toast was good (and still is.)

    Non-vegan stuff I loved was bread and dripping, black pudding and pate. Sorry, I know it is disgusting now.

    As a kid I very quickly learnt to adore fruit and veg after I had to have a tooth pulled when I was about 5. Those were and still are my favourite foods, I'm not big on sweets or fatty food and never have been really. Even when I wasn't vegan I never liked foods that consisted of much dairy or eggs as they usually made me feel sick.

    I went through a stage of eating peanut butter and banana sandwiches all the time, because Gonzo from The Muppets loves them lol.

    my granny's baked rice pudding
    green apples
    homemade potato wedges
    lentils with spätzle (a particular kind of German pasta)
    pasta with tomatoes, olives and lots of basil

    Thinking back I always preferred foods that happened to be vegan by default most of the time. Never liked fast food, and I don't have a sweet tooth at all. When I was young, apparently I once looked at my mom aghast when she at a smartie - I thought they were for playing with...

    Both of those can be vegan easily enough, though, King.

    Mmm, BC, I'd forgotten about dripping. I'm sure there must be a vegan equivalent.

    When I was young I wasn't interested in food and was really slight. Then about age 7 I began to be bullied at school,and looking back I comfort ate, food was the only thing I liked so I got fat, which obviously helped my bullies situation!
    But, I would eat cheesecakes, pizza, whole,really cheesy pizzas, to myself! (my nana fed me a lot) and I loved chocolates and chocolate bars and biscuits and cakes and bread and cheese and ...ugh!!!!
    Glad I eat healthy now!

    Oh, I also remember going through a stage of eating only bread and water for a while as a kid. My mum just let me because she figured I'd get bored lol, I did, then I moved onto a stage of eating eveything with chopsticks lol.

    My neice is 7 and has always been obsessed with cherry tomatoes, she'll just snack on them all day if you let her. She'll choose them voer sweets quite often too, which I think is great!

    I was thinking engine oil or axle grease (which are probably equivalent in terms of healthiness) but your idea sounds more palatable, BC.

    Come to think of it my routine breakfast of toast with hemp oil and Natex probably recaptures the dripping experience a bit, in that it's greasy and savoury

    Haha.

    Nothing to do with the subject but I was just reading this as I can't seem to find a vegan recipe for bread and dripping. My wartime menu

    I used to love anything my Irish grandmother made for me although it was meat and dairy based most of the time. I think she used lard in almost everything! I just remembered spam fritters from reading that article. Also corn beef hash and lamb with mint jelly. It's strange really how much I used to love meat as a child but now am not bothered by it's absence in my diet. Mock meats are pretty yum though especially Fry's I think.

    My favourite foods as a kid were not very vegan.

    I liked plain yogurt and rice (Middle Eastern "children's food"), processed cheese slices, processed salami, pizza, bacon sandwiches, and eggs. Fried eggs were probably my favourite food ever and is the only thing I can't find a replacement for. But it's alright. I don't think about it anymore.
    Peace, love, and happiness.

    Some of those wartime recipes were more or less vegan weren't they? I keep meaning to try the ones here:

    http://www.independent.co.uk/life-st...s-1867313.html

    I think they could be OK if properly seasoned.

    Yes, usually veggie recipes if not vegan. That was probably why people in Britain back then were more healthy on rations.

    I keep remembering foods I liked as a kid because of this thread and they horrify me as a vegan. Caviar, lobster, swordfish steak.

    kraft mac & cheese
    pizza
    grilled cheese
    cheetos
    eggplant parmesan sandwiches
    peanut butter & jelly

    When I was a kid I loved avocados and lots of fruit like bananas, grapes, mangoes, mandarins. I liked meals such as roast potato or potato bake and tortellini/pasta dishes.

    I also loved bread and toast with pb, pb and jam or pb and honey. Also chips, chocolate, biscuits. And cereal, I could eat bowls and bowls of cereal, I loved WeetBix, Sustain and muesli.

    Custard creams, fairground-style donuts, McD's happy meals, crunchie, dime, bounty and boost bars, macaroni cheese, birdseye glazed chicken breast, chicken and mushroom pot noodle, hot chocolate with cream/ marshmallows, strawberry meringues, cool original doritos, jam and butter on toast, cheese and coleslaw sandwiches...

    When i compare that with what i eat now i.e. vegan and mostly raw, it's completely laughable! I mean, i don't even mention anything remotely healthy there. Crazy.

    I would say that it was quite normal to miss certain tastes. Even at 34 years old I still ate meat for half my life. I wish someone would invent a vegan version of halloumi cheese!

    This is totally gross but brings me back to my childhood. My mother would make boxed macaroni and cheese and cut up hot dogs and mix them in. That was pretty fancy for us. Ate a ton of cereal and milk too.

    Default Re: Favourite foods as a kid ? (were they vegan)

    I was a fussy eater as a child. I liked to eat sweets a lot or fruit and for some reason raw potato (not all at the same time though). My most favourite thing to eat was fried bread and brown sauce. I had a really sophisticated palate.

    I hated ice cream which used to puzzle my friends quite a lot!

    None of my childhood foods were vegan

    Chicken nuggets
    Pizza
    Milk Chocolate
    Candy
    Whole Milk
    Chicken noodle soup
    Cheese anything
    Macaroni and cheese

    Just an all round shit diet until I went vegan. I don't miss it at all, Maybe it's just because when I went vegan it was my first time ever eating well, but within a month or so I felt on-top of my game. It disgusts me now to think I ate like that. The smell of cheese and meat disgusts me now.

    Sandra,- I meet a lot of parents that say their children won't eat meat- I was probably a "fussy" eater, but I think most children are in touch with their natural instincts and meat just repulses them . I encourage the parents to buy them veggie burgers and other meat alternatives and advice them that meat isn't a nutritional requirement and a vegan diet is healthier,

    I agree Sunkist, I think if all children were told exactly what meat is there would be a lot more vegans!

    I was generally 'fussy' about everything I ate as a child though. I remember I wouldn't eat anything with mushrooms in it............now I LOVE mushrooms!

    My 4 year old nephew does not quite see the connection yet unfortuantely, he loves watching fish swimming about in fish tanks but also loves going to Morrisons to look at the massive salmon on the fish counter (dead of course).

    My favourite foods as a child were my Mum's spaghetti bolognese and shepherds pie.

    ^ How do you survive now?? Vegan marshmallows are the most expensive, extortionate vegan product there is!
