Everyone is catered for!

The great thing these days is that there is so much choice for vegetarians and vegans, the world is definitely your aubergine!

There's so much information and help out there too. I've been a member of The Vegetarian Society for years, since 1999 to be exact.

You get a seasonal members' magazine which is crammed full of :

Current news

Features

Food – of course – in its broadest sense with tips,

recipes and places that carry the all important “VSA” (Vegetarian

Society Approved) trademark

Regular stuff including book reviews

Fancy a cookery class? The choice is wide from Chocolate Craft for Vegans to The Indian Guru.

The magazine gives you up to date information on new products and the latest to carry both vegetarian and vegan trademarks. It even has a dietitian service.

Best of all is probably the Classifieds.

If you'd like to know where you can buy a pair of “vegetarian/vegan” friendly shoes look no further.

I am fortunate in that one of the advertisers is a place very close to my heart and home – Daily Bread Co-operative in Northampton - have a look at their website – www.dailybread.co.uk – you won't be sorry.

If you were thinking of preparing your Christmas List (sorry, but it's on its way) you could do worse than to ask for a subscription.

Have a look at their website www.vegsoc.org - they can be found at Parkdale, Dunham Road, Altrincham, WA14 4QG 0161 925 2000.

It's fantastic value for money.

Now for the book …
