I understand that meat tastes good and I know you think you’re just one person and it ‘won’t change anything if you stop’ but that’s ignorant and stupid. If you have half a brain, you should know ‘one person’ adds up. Be smarter. “ - Billie Eilish

Tesco expands vegan range

Good news! Tesco – the UK’s largest supermarket – has revealed that it will expand its plant-based selection in a bid to boost profits. The retailer will add a total of 300 items to stores, as well as a new brand, Plant Chef. In 2018, Derek and Chad Sarno shared that the vegan Wicked Kitchen range sold four million meals in just 33 weeks. Derek recently commented: “We’ve proven to the world it’s time for a change and people are responding. I’ve no idea what that equates to when thinking of less suffering but I can’t think that way because there is still suffering going on this very moment as long as we’re not connected to the foods we choose to eat.”
