Last year was an incredible year for plant-based diets and vegans, Camden Market saw several new vegan traders join the historic cobbles and stables. It comes as no surprise that Veganuary 2019 has superseded previous years. Piers Morgan had a meltdown over the vegan sausage roll from Greggs and Pizza Hut have made their pulled jackfruit pizza an permanent addition to their menu. Here’s to a great Veganuary and a bigger and better year for our vegan traders, here’s what they got up to this month!
