    Question Vegan breakfast treats

    Hi all,

    I am looking for an alternative to my regular breakfast treats of Crunchy Nut Cornflakes and Croissants and I wondered if anyone knows where I could purchase vegan alternatives to these items. I have looked on Tesco and it seems that all the croissants have butter in them and Tesco version of C.N. Cornflakes still have honey in them. I am craving these so any info. would be very helpful!

    Hello - these croissants that you bake yourself are (or were) vegan http://www.jusrol.co.uk/ProductDetail.aspx?ProductId=16 The only thing is, they are quite hard to find. Sainsbury's used to have them at one point but I'm not sure they do now

    Someone else may know about the cornflakes. You might find it easier to cultivate a taste for something slightly different - for example, you can get vegan bagels fairly easily (good with hummus). Muesli is often vegan (check the ingredients) and can be delicious especially if you add fresh fruit.

    Hi
    You can get the Croissants that Harpy mentions in Morrisons & Asda (they also do a Pan Au Chocolat).

    With regards to the Crunchy Nut Cornflakes you could try Maple Frosted Flakes with some nuts thrown in.

    Can you? Morrisons and Asda here I come (if I can find one). Does it have to be a big branch?

    I've never ever found the pain au chocolat one anywhere

    I think I've only seen them in quite large branches, maybe you could give a branch a call before going to make sure they have them?

    I will not eat anything that walks, swims, flies, runs, skips, hops or crawls.

    Good idea, Firestorm. Actually there's a Morrison's in Wimbledon where I often go anyway so I should have a look in there (unless I already did when we had the last vegan croissant discussion )
