Vegan Snacks Part 3: Cookies

Vegan Snacks Part 3: Cookies

By: Megan

 Cookies are one of my favorite snacks. I definitely have a sweet tooth and love all types of cookies. There are tons of vegan brands of cookies. 

1. Oreos

Oreos were probably the only reason I thought I could make it as a vegan, to begin with. My motto at the time was "I could survive on Oreos". I am not sure why I thought that was possible, but hey I am here and am still vegan, so something must have worked. The really cool thing about Oreos is every single flavor is accidentally vegan. Even the new Gluten-Free Oreos are vegan, which is an exciting new addition to the growing number of Oreos.

2. Voortman Wafer Cookies

I know I am a bit of an old lady for this, but I think wafer cookies are the bomb. There's just something about them that I love. The brand Voortman is the only brand I have come across that has vegan wafer cookies. All of the wafer cookies from this brand that I have seen were vegan including flavors such as Chocolate, Vanilla, Orange Cream, and even Key Lime Pie. They even have sugar-free wafer cookies which taste just as good as the rest of them. I like to get these at Walmart because they have so many different options and flavors.

3. Enjoy Life

Enjoy life is a completely vegan brand and is allergy-friendly. They have a bunch of different snack foods most of which are cookies and sweets. I love all of their cookies. They are sold in both crunchy and soft varieties in flavors such as chocolate chip, snickerdoodle, and double chocolate chip. I have gotten these cookies at Walmart and Kroger, but have also found these products at Big Lots and Ollies for a cheaper price. 

4. Simple Truth Plant Based Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough

This cookie dough is a premade cookie dough which is extremely convenient. I love how it is super easy and is a great snack or is great to take to parties. I also like to eat the raw cookie dough despite the package recommendations not to. In my opinion, this cookie dough tastes exactly like non-vegan cookie dough and is very good. This premade cookie dough is exclusive to Kroger stores and is about $2.99 for a pack of 12 cookies.

All of these options are good on their own, but are great dipped in milk. Even though cookies are not the healthiest snack, it is important to have a variety and fill those voids, and eating this way I believe contributes to my success story and has helped me stay vegan for so long.

My Deal With Clearance

My Deal With Clearance By: Megan            Anyone who knows me well knows that I love the clearance section. It does not matter which store I am or if I have ever been there I will find the clearance section. Sometimes I go and there are so many different products and sometimes I go and it is completely empty. However, it does not matter if I have not found anything in clearance all day, I have to go to the section in every single store. I never really started going to the clearance section until I went vegan. I always thought it was just a bunch of expired food that could not be salvaged. After going vegan, the food I wanted to eat got to be very expensive. To get as much food as possible, I started shopping for the sales. Then, I discovered clearance tags. A lot of products such as yogurts, mock meats, and veggies would be on clearance often. I learned what was most often marked down and where I needed to look in the stores on quick trips. Usually, if I find foods I like that are ma

Vegan at Restaurants Part 1: IHOP

   Vegan at Restaurants Part 1: IHOP By: Megan     In this series, I will be discussing vegan options at popular restaurants and will be trying them and giving my thoughts on them. I have always loved IHOP. I was randomly wanting IHOP and told my friend we had to go to IHOP; it was non-negotiable really. IHOP really is not the best place for vegan options. They do not have any vegan waffles or pancakes which is a bummer. I ended up getting a serving of Hashbrowns, potato pancakes, and sourdough toast. I would not say this was the most filling meal, but with not a lot of vegan options in the area, it was a nice change. This meal was very carb-filled and I could have easily gotten a fruit cup instead of one of the potato options, but who doesn't love a whole plate of potatoes?      I will start off with the hashbrowns. They were very good. I mean they are hashbrowns, so they are self-explanatory. Luckily, their hashbrowns are naturally vegan, so I did not have to do any specification
