]]> More people are trying to embrace a vegan lifestyle as the years go by, and the major fast-food chains are keeping up with this trend. You can find plant-based options at pretty much every fast-food franchise these days, and we’re here to help you decide if eating them is a good idea.

Cooking Process

Despite containing plant-based ingredients, vegan fast foods usually aren’t that healthy because the cooking process still involves deep-frying, thus upping their calorie, fat, and sodium content.

Cross-Contamination

Cross-contamination is one of the biggest problems concerning vegan fast food. Unless it’s prepared separately from other foods, it’s highly likely it will come into contact with non-vegan ingredients.

Limited Offering

Fast-food restaurants are still new players in the plant-based game. You won’t have too many vegan options to choose from, so it’s best to go to restaurants that specialize in authentic plant-based cuisine.

Animal Cruelty

If you’re “vegan for the animals,” you might want to avoid vegan fast food for ethical reasons. Despite offering plant-based options, major fast-food chains still significantly contribute to animal cruelty.

Sending Good Message

Vegan fast food might have its downsides, but it’s not all that bad. Its rising popularity may inspire fast-food restaurants to offer more vegan options and introduce better practices during the preparation process.

]]> French food is often regarded as some of the best in the world and the country’s influence on other global cuisine has been significant to say the least. As delicious as it may be, it’s definitely not the most vegan-friendly. Fortunately, over the last few years, plant-based food has become increasingly popular, leading plenty of Parisian cafes to create vegan versions of classic French pastries and dishes. Be sure to give them a try should you find yourself in the City of Light anytime soon.

Le Potager du Marais

This restaurant has been serving up vegan and vegetarian versions of French dishes for almost 20 years, so they’ve got to be doing something right. We especially love their seitan roast over “sauce au poivre,” which means pepper sauce.

VG Pâtisserie

What says “Paris” more than croissants?! All of our favorite indulgent French pastries reimagined without butter and eggs. Don’t skip on the pain au chocolat—croissants filled with chocolate. 

42 Degrés

It’s not France without cheese, and this raw vegan restaurant offers five different plant-based versions of our favorites. Order the platter to try them all with condiments, bread, and crackers.
