Hilarious but Relatable Vegan Struggles

When you tell anyone that you’re vegan, you’re flooded with a lot of questions, a lot of opinions and a whole lot of suggestions. Like, no, vegans do not miss bacon or cheese! While being vegan is a wonderful, beautiful way to live life – It comes with a lot of funny relatable struggles.

It’s Vegan Time!

At Papa John’s we believe that veganism can be celebrated at any time! We have a bunch of vegan food for you to try to make these vegan struggles not as hard.

1. The very delicious Garden Party has gone Vegan! We’ve made one of our classic with our Vegan cheese because we don’t want you to miss out!
2. The Jackfruit “Pepperoni”, is a vegan twist on Pepperoni Pizza. Vegan Cheese topped with spicy jackfruit “pepperoni” slices, it’s heavenly.
3. Inject a spicy vegan flare into your life with the Vegan Chilli Freak, which features a yellow Amarillo chilli sauce topped with our vegan Cheese, sliced green peppers, red chilli peppers, onions and spicy jalapeno peppers. Can you handle the heat?
4. Papa Jonh’s knows you love ‘The Works’ pizza, so we made it vegan. You’ll love The Vegan Works, take caution when consuming it though, you may become addicted.

Grass and Leaves Diet

When you tell people that you’re vegan, they automatically assume you somehow survive on a bland, seasonless, boring diet of plants like carrots and celery. You get a weird sense of satisfaction when you see their reaction to your heavenly, gooey, succulent ‘Cheese and Tomato’ or when they see you munching on the incredibly delicious Papa John’s ‘Not Chicken Vegan Bites‘. Oh yeah, vegans are out here eating good food. Don’t worry about them!

Meat Lecturers

Another vegan struggle is that you’re pretty much always being told about how you need meat. You could probably save up a huge chunk of money if you got a pound for every time someone told you why you ‘need meat’ and how ‘not eating meat is really bad for you’. It’s laughable how, almost instantly, people turn into nutritionists when they find out your vegan!

Trying to Defend Yourself

Relatable struggles number 3: Defending yourself. When you defend your vegan ways, you’re very quick to be labeled as that vegan friend. The vegan friend, that ‘won’t shut up about veganism’, the friend that is ‘shoving veganism down our throats’, the friend that is ‘making veganism a big deal.’ You simply can’t win.

The Fresh Food Race

Fresh food is pretty much a vegan staple. If you’re vegan, your pantry is sure to be stocked up with bananas, avocados and other tasty fruits and veggies. While this is amazing, they sure do love to go bad. You blink and boom! Your bananas are brown. It’s like the minute you turn your back, fruit and vegetables can’t wait to go rotten.

Small Town Struggle

This is one of the saddest vegan struggles, if you’re vegan and live in a small town, your vegan options are so minimal. Not a wholefoods or a cute quirky vegan store in sight. You must resort to the tiny frozen section of your local supermarket. Papa John’s store finder just might make living in a small town a little bit better, with over 500 stores across the UK & a diverse vegan menu – we have your back! (find your closest store here)
