What is vegan food?
東京ベジフードフェスタとは/写真3
Vegan food is made from plant-based ingredients only. This includes not only fruits and vegetables, but also rice, cereals, seaweed, and bean products. Many traditional Japanese dishes, including shojin ryori, are actually vegan.
Benefits of a plant-based diet
A plant-based diet offers the following benefits.
1. Environmentally friendly
Producing plant-based foods causes less harm to the environment.
2. Healthier
A plant-based diet is healthier and would help decrease healthcare expenditure.
3. Respect for life
Veganism is about respect for life, including that of animals.
4. Higher food self-sufficiency rate
Promoting a plant-based diet would help increase the food self-sufficiency rate
of Japan and many other countries.
5. International
With vegan food, it is easier to cater for people with various dietary restrictions
from different countries. It also brings people of the world together.
