Whether they’re concerned about the climate catastrophe, saving animals, or improving their health, more and more young people are recognizing the benefits of going vegan. According to the Good Food Institute, the sales of animal-free foods grew three times faster than overall food sales in 2021. Research shows that Gen Zers specifically view going vegan as a way to promote compassion toward animals, address the climate catastrophe, lower their carbon footprint, and promote sustainability. Check out which universities are moving with the times and offering vegan options!

My friend went to this college, though I don’t go to college, I had spent the day with her and we had a meal there. The were little to no vegan options, and what was there was unsatisfying.

There are very few vegetarian and almost no vegan options available on campus. The meatless options that are provided often have very little protein (meaning they are much less filling), or are basically meat dishes sans meat. There are so many great vegan foods it there that are filling and exciting. I feel that the lack of options sends the message to other students that being vegan is difficult, tasteless, boring. I want to encourage others to go veg, not deter them.
