Tesco is killing it, they’ve got a new vegan range called Plant Chef. I love Tesco’s ad for vegan sausages with the little girl saying she doesn’t want to eat animals anymore, it’s got the farmers complaining, well done Tesco 👍
i da That’s a good news, but why do people move on to vegan ‘sausage’? Sausage itself is disgusting begin with... it looks horrible and smells yucky and just nothing attractive about it. I don’t understand the hole point of vegan sausage. 👀👂🏼
Sahn Song the point is for someone who is used to eating a sausage made of flesh, to be able to still enjoy a sausage that has no dead animals in it. Just because you don’t like it doesn’t mean other people don’t.
I'm a meat eater, probably eat meat once a day on average, I do feel a sense of guilt, and I know my own ignorance keeps me eating meat, but after watching the documentary game changer on Netflix and videos such as this I know it makes every sense to go vegan... so I am going to go vegan as soon as I've found recipes I've cooked and liked, and figured out my nutritional intake. I'm looking forward to the journey
@@aleksandralempart8305 I'd rather eat meat that's natural than chemically saturated vegetarian overpriced bullshit that has been heavily marketed by companies to manipulate you into paying more for "healthier" food.
You missed a perfect opportunity there Joey "Why not choose beans over....Beings!" Should have said beings :) awesome uplifting video bro. Vegan options are everywhere and they only keep growing the more people become decent to nonhuman animals!
Alice Roche If you even had to guess that then you are as moronic as your previous comments suggest. I’m not even a Vegan before you try play that card, you’re just inflammatory, and clearly lacking in intelligence.
I immensely value how you point out and vividly describe the utter horror, and then show the mere “one step” required to avoid it. Most activists just show the vegan options. Profound and important as always, Joey, keep it up!
@@maiadraconica6488 theres simply too many humans on earth, thats why. now imagine if every single human was vegan, an incredible amount of land would be needed to feed us alot more than now but not only that the food waste would be off the charts. fruits and vegetables only stay fresh for so long before you have to throw them away.
@@cattygirl6663 we grow enough plant food to feed 12 billion people, but so much of it goes to feed farm animals that there isnt enough for everyone(cause meat dont come out of nowhere, theres like 17 pounds of feed for 1 pound of beef) we would literally reduce our required farm land by 75% if we just stopped animal agriculture. We wouldnt need nearly as much crops cause no factory farmed animals, and we would not need any land to house said animals, or feedlots and we wouldnt need grassland for those 10% of animals that graze (which is a massive amount of land)
I keep getting mocked trying to change my lifestyle to vegan, but then I just think even if someone makes fun of me over it, at least I know i'm doing good for the animals
My dad has been eating plant based since the start of this year yet he still doesnt read damn labels! He comes home with a Mi Goreng sauce that has shrimp in it, its even got a little bag of fucking shrimp stapled to the outside of the packet! So stoopid
My father bought my plant-based mother a Hershey’s milk chocolate bar that says milk chocolate, meaning cows milk, right on the label. She is in it for the ethics now :-)
Off to tescos now for my first vegan weekly shop! Spent a lot of time watching RU-vid and listening to the facts of plant based diets. Look forward to a change! Hopefully forever! Really enjoying your content!
He's actually only pretending to be vegan for the youtube money, as soon as the video's over he goes round again and throws in all the good meats he saw on the way /s
I work for tesco. I love all the new things that are coming in. We love that mayo..I talk to all my customers about the vegan options eve if they arent vegan lol
@Hi Hug many people want vegan options, this is obvious otherwise people wouldnt be making or buying them 😂 plus animal agriculture is the main contributor to climate change at 87% of man made gas emissions, so the more people that educate themselves and do their part actually make your life better and hopefully longer, everyone wants vegan options even if they dont know it .
Your commentary on the animal products kills me every time 😂🙌🏼 Edit: I know everything he’s saying is true and it’s a serious topic. (I’m vegan) It’s just hilarious to me the way he nonchalantly spits truth with no hesitation 👌🏼
It would be the isle I never go down as it's way too expensive for me I only go for Tesco's own made products as they are extremely cheap in comparison to everything else
@@bumblemax6108 Two years late, but you’ll find that Tesco has actually made a lot of products that are in their own range and are vegan. Brand products are more expensive in general, but there are options if you’d rather not eat from a brand name.
@@bumblemax6108 So all vegetable, fruit, isles, rice breads cereals legumes beans nuts, I could go on etc are expensive? Hmmm also it wouldn't be one isle, you might find that a large percentage is actually already inexpensive vegan or vegetarian diet. Meat is heavily taxed and becoming more expensive
@@Carl-hm7qf Most supermarkets have decent offerings,aldi are good on a smaller scale. If there's one thing I've learnt tho is make as much as you can for yourself. 👍
I work for Tesco and I'm finding it so hard to stay - people coming through with chicken legs, wings, breasts, bacon, pig legs, lamb, eggs, milk - multiple animal products in one basket - its so upsetting. It's really starting to get to me. Nice to see you highlighting all of the new options coming through supermarkets - just something to hang onto.
The "Ooh cake!" Cracked me up! 😂 That's totally me when I shop but I definitely need to stay in the produce section longer! 😬 Amazing video as always Joey!
I loved it how you put the vegan "fish" in the other section, a meat eater might accidentally buy it =D Could you also include stuff like soaps, laundry stuff etc because here it's more tricky to find out what is vegan AND cruelty-free/not tested on animals!
That’s a good one. I have family who use non cruelty free laundry detergent and such but won’t buy dairy or leather. 🤦♀️. I try ! Please include stuff at American stores if you can Joey.
JEsus Christ what has the world become... Do you know how much plants are being killed every year? So many childs taken away from their mother. Vegans disgust me.
Thank you so much for these videos! So encouraging for me as I'm in the research and prep phase of going vegan in the next few weeks. Looks much easier than I thought it would be! Super happy!
love the video joey .Its amazing how people are switching their diets and eating habits plus the products are now increasing on the shelves and its thanks to hardworking , caring people like you.......I finally change and have now cut all diary and meat out of my diet this week.....THANK YOU JOEY.
Love that you are showing. Things that encourage the kids too. I desperately struggle sometimes with getting the kids excited about lunch boxes. These snacks are golden idea. Dinner is much easier because we cook it together thankfully
Going from vegetarian to vegan, I have learned about my mistakes of eating dairy and seafood. Going vegan will also help with my spiritual journey -thank you so much for the video!🌞
Really good video this! Especially for non vegans I feel, so they can actually see what you’re buying/can buy and they can then identify the vegan products more easily because they’ll recognise them from this video. Thanks again Joey
@Norman Normington You must have a wonderfully fulfilling life to comment this negativity on a strangers post. So, just to get your logic right... you think my husband is “too good for me” because he pays for innocent animals to needlessly be exploited and have their necks sliced into? Hmmm, I think you might want to rethink that one bud.
Thank you joey!!! Keep up the good work. Thanks to you I finally became vegan. I was a vegetarian for 4 years, but finally came to realize about the horrible milk and egg industry. So THANK YOU, for opening my eyes, and standing up towards my unsupportive family. I could not be more thankful!!! I hope you understand what a BIG impact you have on people!
@@bananian well me personally I think killing animals for food is not a bad thing you can think whatever you wanna think but I won't stop eating animals and before you say heart attack think
I do my shopping in asda then go over to tesco for their awesome vegan options then leave. I only shop vegan in tesco. I didn't go in at all before they brought out their plant based range. They will definitely gain customers with their vegan stuff. I cant wait to see what they bring out for crimbo this year.
You've got to be careful with some things containing sugar., For instance, I found out the other day that not all Heinz ketchup are vegan. The only one that is is the Organic one. That's because the sugar in the ketchup is filtered over "bone char" or something like that which is part of an animal. Sometimes just reading the label is not enough unfortunately. Especially if there's not animal in the ingredients but there's a warning that says it's produced in a facility that processes egg and milk.
For some reason I find these “how to be vegan at…” videos and the “epic vegan meals” ones so calming and comforting. Maybe it’s cause it’s a feeling of being guided as a new (ish) vegan and encouraged and reassured… you have such a positive and can-do attitude Joey and you’re just a ray of sunlight in this world and it’s infectious!! I know you will likely never see this comment but I’m leaving it anyway 😅
the 'warm milk section' got me :D Especially when he continued with 'the warmer milk...' haha. Thanks Joey, I only have a Tesco Express around but I must make s trip to a superstore it seems like they are smashing it
Here in America there’s so much stuff that says may contain milk or eggs so I’m glad you explained that its just for allergies and doesn’t actually contain it. I never knew that I always thought that there was traces of milk or dairy or eggs in Stuff like that
@@FLYINHAWAIIAN37 It's alcohol that's caught me out before, a while back now. Milk in wine, milk and eggs in sparkling perry - 'Country Manor' (*vomit*). In food you know if animal products are not in the ingredients it's very very unlikely to not be vegan... Yet things like K Cider uses fish scales in its filtration process and states nothing about it on the cans...
@@jackspringett4266 Just as meat should never be a staple food of society, meat replacements aren't meant to be either. The goal is cruelty-free taste for those who are transitioning to vegan
The BOL ones are actually quite interesting - just like two years ago they were still using meat, then dropped meat and became vegetarian meals company and now all their meals are vegan:) - Any business can change, they are a great example!
Tesco Bromley by Bow. I used to be the Personnel Manager there. I would be interested in at least trying to become vegan but the fundamental issue is this. There should be education on preparing vegan meals, ingredients etc instead of people just shouting at you. Search veganism and that's all you get.
Hey Joey, as a newish vegan that was super helpful, do you think building on this with a suspect ingredients type list would be helpful as well? (For instance I got caught up with colour 120). I also find myself having to google each ingredient I've never heard of! Which is fine, just very time consuming.
The colour 120 is so annoying , When you look at ingredients it usually has them highlighted in bold, the main ones are milk, egg, milk protein , beef gelatine then their are the hidden ones like Carmine and whey protein (milk) ... write a list down of all the hidden ones , the others will be in bold ... if you have Instagram follow @accidentlyveganuk they post a lot of vegan foods in supermarkets that are accidentally vegan
I've been vegetarian for about 7 years. Started watching your videos a few days ago. I found myself using the same arguments to defend dairy produce as I did when I ate meat. You've got me convinced. Going to start going vegan as soon as I've finished the dairy I've already bought. Is there any advice for the non food products that wouldn't be considered vegan and how to spot them. Ive heard certain cleaning products contain animal products and such. Any help is really appreciated
I can honestly say vegan mayo (I've tried three brands Inc. the one mentioned above) tastes EXACTLY the same as regular mayo. Chickpeas, legumes are also so high in calcium! Make your own falafel, houmous and I found a great recipe for v. Egg sandwich: mash some chickpeas up, some chopped onions, grated carrots vegan mayo and kala numak salt.. Amazing tastes like egg mayo. Alpro vanilla yoghurt in a cheesecake or with some defrosted frozen berries is also a beautiful dessert! Recommend isa chandra " I can cook vegan" book, very famous, beautiful recipes 👌👌🌮🍰🍰
Something you missed! You mentioned TVP which for anyone that doesn’t know is just “lean” soy meat, in the frozen section of most supermarkets they’ll do an own-brand meat-free mince. This is pre-prepared TVP mince frozen and it’s probably one of your cheapest meat alternatives, enjoy 😊
"Albert Heijn" which is one of the biggest (if not biggest) supermarket chains in The Netherlands is marking Vegan products with little signs in front of the products which really makes it easy to shop and make the right choice.
Yup pretty demonic. Great work Joey. I must disagree with the nutritional content of most all of that stuff but that's neither here nor there. This is what most people eat anyway
yup, beans as a source of protien vs beef as a source of protien beans and legumes are better, coat them both in oil and salt and plants still win, same with cheese, both high in salt and fat but ones made from beans or legumes and the other puss bloody cow lactation
@@junglejarred6366 there are many types of beans, seeds, nuts, legumes, im sure theres something out there for you. so you dont like soy milk or soy based protein??
@@jacksentoomer i have tried, lentils, garbanzo, peas, adzuki, mung, black, red, white, peanuts and carob. Beans are not my friend. Tofu and tempeh are no good either. I am actually currently recovering from a tofu experiment gone terribly wrong. But, and this i find very very strange, i can eat impossible burgers with no issue whatsoever. This is even more strange because i can't tolerate potatoes either and soy and potato are the main ingredients in the impossible burger. I can not tolerate the beyond burger though and that is pea protein. I also can't tolerate pea protein powder. Other stuff i can't eat are cooked garlic and onion, greens and especially ones high in oxalates, sweet potatoes, pumpkins, squash, rice, cashews, tahini... Basically most cooked stuff i can't eat. So i stick with raw sprouted buckwheat, teff, chia, walnuts, loads of fruit, raw spirulina and impossible whoppers lol. Its fucking weird. I eat raw vegan except for the most processed thing on the planet. Oh well
@@junglejarred6366 lol very interesting, it suck but may also be a blessing in disguise to have such strict detry requiements, you only can settle for the best. :'(
I've been out of the UK for just over a year and there is so much vegan stuff that's come out since. I am soo excited to come back for xmas this year with all the new choc and dairy alternatives... Here in China there is lots of great meat alternative options but dairy not so much
Only been vegan for 15 days now and honestly I feel so much better already. Dairy messed up with my stomach so badly, it's a huge relief to not be in constant pain while saving animals in the process
@@saralongridge4648 most but not all. Processed food is the problem. All vegans are malnourished by default. You'll be fine to begin with but quickly get very unwell. If you're drinking soy or almond milk you'll definitely be in trouble.
@@AliceRoche-ii2ke I've been to my doctor, they seem really happy with it. If I need more vitamins I'll simply add them. I'm definitely not starving on this change.
The problem is a lot of the vegan friendly foods contain palm oil which defeats the purpose of going vegan in the first place and then a lot of them also contain E numbers most of which contain animal ingredients.
One step from UK produced dairy to almond milk, pity you didn't mention how many litres of water go into making one carton of almond milk, not to mention the fossil fuel airmiles to get the almonds soy etc over to the uk..
1:36 ok so speaking from a dairy farmers point of view,i have never known for what you have said to happen on a dairy farm,that would just be ridiculous and absolutely truly horrible! Just commenting as you should know how most dairy farms work, they definitely do NOT get slaughtered! after a heifers given birth ( a female cow) she spend 3-5 days with her children in a warm sheltered environment and she feeds her children with her milk obviously,after a few days they are separated due to it being easier to separate them then(they do see them again thou) after that the mother goes back into the milking herd and the calfs go in a warm shed with a cosy and peaceful bedding for them and are still fed on there mother’s milk,after they have finished there time in the shed they go out in the fields and see there mother at some point extra.
Always check breads, flatbreads, pittas etc but especially wraps for L-cysteine.. amino acid taken from feathers, horn and hair (sometimes human). Gross! Ace vid Joey!
Don't forget the highly visable live huge parasitic worms in all of the salmon. Just look it up on you tube. It all has living parasitic worms easily seen under the plastic package if they just look.
