Our Favorite New Vegan Products at Trader Joe’s

A basket isn’t going to do it anymore, folks, because Trader Joe’s has been upping its vegan game. And simply by choosing vegan options, you can help spare the lives of countless animals. Did you know that pigs can play video games, chickens recognize over 100 faces, and some fish even sing together? Just like the dogs and cats who share our homes, animals used for food are intelligent and experience pain and suffering.

These treats, staples, and meals at Trader Joe’s are proof that food doesn’t need flesh, dairy milk, or any other animal-derived ingredient to taste delicious. With all these fantastic vegan goodies, we can’t imagine ever being hangry again.
