Just a quick rant about supermarkets.
Because I have to travel several miles to reach a health food store to pick up things like Redwoods vegan foods and other bits, my two local supermarkets are the closest places to buy what I need from during the week.
The local Tesco used to sell vegan foods like Plamil chocolate and Cheezly cheese and Alpro vegan yogurt. They've now stopped!
This means that whenever I go shopping out of town, I have to buy all the special vegan items (which costs a fortune) in one go. I may just be being a glutton here, but you know what it's like when you have a bag full of vegan food right there in front of you... snack attack! I usually eat everything within the first few days of buying it as its a big treat to be able to have something different :-(
Supermarkets are definitely getting better for stocking vegan stuff (and labelling it), but they make living easy hard by not having the basics!
I really don't like big supermarkets anyway since they destroy local businesses, but when they're the only place to buy stuff from, you'd think they'd make more of an effort!
Rant over.... unless anyone else wants to join in!
