Many people think that vegans are crackpots. Why in the world would someone not want a thick juicy steak or lobster bathed in liquid butter? Some of them do it for health reasons, others for political ideals. Reasons aside, vegans can live a healthy lifestyle and are much more attentive to what they put in their bodies than most of us omnivores. So next time your vegan friend comes to Salem, you can feel comfortable taking them to any of these restaurants.

    Is that pizza shown above with dairy cheese?
    :/

    Eva,

    No it is Cheezly Vegan Mozzarella. After all this is an article about vegan foods.

  3. Salem Veg Head says:

    I know this article is a year old, but the Salem Vegan Society currently does not have a website up. They are on Twitter @salemvegan.

    And I can’t believe Eva would think that photo was a pizza with dairy cheese in a vegan article. Do people use their brains anymore?

    The Salem Vegan Society really really painfully needs a website, and a better one than before because I recall that it was hardly updated and difficult to navigate.

    Thanks for this article! I had no idea. I’ve only been living here a year, but I assumed there weren’t really any options for me.

    To add to the list: White Dove Market. They have great falafel.
