As climate change and other socially-conscious issues rightly garner more headlines, more and more people are considering switching to a vegetarian or vegan diet. This is great not just for the planet, but for others with a similar diet too, as it usually results in a greater choice from more eateries. 

The great news is that now, non-meat food tastes better than ever before – plus, you can enjoy your meal safe in the knowledge that you’re helping the environment in some small way.
