i went on a trip to london a couple weeks ago. i repeat it over and over, but london is my favorite city in the world. the food is quite expensive there, however, there are many healthy vegan options to go for. i would like to show you some of them in this post.
first of all, fruit. fruit is available everywhere for a good price. unless you buy those little containers with sliced pineapple or whatever. in this case, it s a bit expensive, i agree. i found these strawberries and mangos in camden town. both the strawberries and mangos look beautiful and they are not expensive at all. by the way, the mangos were giant. they were bigger than those i was getting from asda for 85p. i would go for strawberries, since it is much easier to eat them on the go.
another amazing fruity snack are these yo yos. they are made of fruit. only. they taste like gummy bears, but the texture is much better. you can find these in almost every supermarket. i got them in asda for 50p which is great. they had three or four different flavours, including apple, strawberry and raspberry.
now this is super cool. we went to westfields which is a large shopping center near to shepherd's bush tube station. there were these snack automats with healthy vegan snacks only! the price was a bit higher than it would be in a regular shop, but anyway, i found it super cool.
what a shame would it be if i did not visit whole foods. to be honest, i was a bit disappointed, because there were so many non vegan and non vegetarian meals. they had only one vegan soup on the menu. i bought it, because i was hungry (do not go shopping for food when you are hungry!). it was bloody expensive, but very tasty. i got some expensive pita breads to go with it. they were oil free, which was nice.
finally, if you like shops like pound land and you are a vegan, don't worry. there are many things you can buy. for example seedless grapes, bread, baked beans or this delicious unsweetened dried pineapple. it tastes like pineapple juice. i ate the whole pack.
