Guide to Vegan Grocery Shopping (In Store and Online!)

So, we know what you’re thinking:

I would be vegan, but there’s no Whole Foods near me.

I can’t afford to be vegan.

My local supermarket just doesn’t carry enough vegan-friendly products for me to be a full-time vegan.

Friends, that’s a bunch of nonsense.

These days, the scope of vegan-friendly options that you can find at major regional and national supermarkets is astronomical.

If you’re considering going vegan, or you simply need some grocery shopping inspiration, look no further (by which we mean, down below) than World of Vegan’s Ultimate Guide to Vegan Grocery Shopping.

Vegan Grocery Shopping Tips

Vegan grocery shopping isn’t all that different from shopping as a vegetarian or an omnivore, although it does require a bit of time and conscientiousness in the beginning. To make things easier for yourself, we recommend that you:

1. Bring a shopping list.

We have all done it: We’ve gone into the supermarket to get our weekly groceries, or just to pick up a few staples, and we leave with a cart filled with impulse purchases that are worth twice as much as we were planning to pay.

Considering that human beings worldwide waste or lose around 1.3 billion tonnes of food per year, we all could be a little more mindful about how much food we need and use. Bringing along a shopping list will not only help you to stay on budget, but it can also help you and your family minimize food waste and the guilt that comes with tossing old food. It’s a win-win situation!

2. Use a meal plan.

Regardless of whether you’re shopping for yourself or for a family, or on a budget or with a hefty food allowance, we recommend that you shop with a meal plan. Whereas a shopping list just tells you the food items you need to buy, a meal plan helps you map out exactly what you’ll be eating for the week so you can be sure to get all the ingredients you need in one grocery shopping trip.

There are tons of meal plans out there that have been expertly crafted for you, like our Plant-Based on a Budget Meal Plans, which come with printable shopping lists that you can print off and bring with you to the store. Not only is this a good way to reduce food waste, but it helps you to ensure that you have enough food to provide yourself with meals for the week.

We don’t know about you, but it’s easy to fall into a mid-week slump where there’s “nothing” in the house you want to eat. And then what happens? You order pricey takeout or make a mid-week grocery run for more food you don’t need while your earlier purchases perish. This can all be avoided with a great vegan meal plan.

Plus, meal plans are great if you’re someone who’s budget-conscious or pressed for time. They allow you to plot out exactly what ingredients you’ll need so you can shop around for the most reasonable price and be efficient at the grocery store and in the kitchen.

3. Shop mostly along the perimeter of the store.

The perimeter of the grocery store is where supermarkets tend to keep most of their fresh foods, bulk items, and other whole foods. It’s the healthiest (and also the prettiest!) section of the grocery store since it’s full of vibrant produce. Challenge yourself to do as much of your shopping from the perimeter as possible.

4. Shop local and in-season (when you can).

You’ve probably noticed by now that the price of produce skyrockets when you try to buy it out of season, while the flavor profile tends to go down as well. For the sake of nutritional variety and your wallet, consider buying in-season produce that was picked at the peak of its ripeness, and purchasing locally-harvested fruits and veggies to help support your local farmers.

When produce has to be transported a long way before it lands in the grocery store, it will likely be picked far before it’s actually ripe. Picture: oranges when they’re not yet orange, and peaches that are totally hard. This, as you can imagine, can cause loss of flavor and nutrients.

When you have a craving for something that’s out of season in your region, consider buying frozen fruits and veggies. They’re typically cheaper than their non-frozen counterparts but are still nutritionally rich since they were flash-frozen after being picked.

Bonus: If you have a green thumb and love gardening, think about expanding your garden to grow your own fruits and veggies. We love this metal raised garden bed system from Vego Gardens!

5. Check the meat and dairy aisles.

Here’s the deal: There’s not always a rhyme or reason to how supermarkets lay out their vegan-friendly and health-conscious items. Sometimes they’ll put all of the vegan-friendly items in one little weird corner that only vegans seem to know about. Other times they’ll intersperse them amongst non-vegan products in otherwise vegan-unfriendly areas (like vegan cheese in the dairy aisle).

Because of this, for your first few trips, we recommend that you take a leisurely stroll through the entire supermarket to find where all of the vegan-y goodness is hiding.

While you’re at it, don’t be embarrassed to ask where to find certain items if you can’t find them. Asking about vegan products at your local supermarket is a great way to gradually encourage supermarkets and food producers to carry more vegan-friendly products, which can ultimately make them more moolah and make their clients (a.k.a. you) happier and healthier.

6. Buy in bulk.

Anyone who’s ever shopped in a Costco or Sam’s Club knows that it’s often exponentially cheaper to buy in bulk than it is to buy food items in smaller quantities. But thanks to supermarket bulk bins, which are quickly rising in popularity, you don’t need to buy massive quantities to buy bulk.

Even if you don’t have the need (or space!) to buy the mega quantities of certain foods at a wholesaler, we recommend checking out the bulk section of your local grocery store.

Not only is it almost always cheaper to buy items from bulk bins as opposed to the same quantity prepackaged, but it’s also more environmentally friendly since your purchase uses less packaging (just check out our discussion on buying in bulk for more evidence!).

For example, when I went budget shopping at Whole Foods (and got a week’s worth of food for under $40, woot-woot!), I noticed that many of the items I purchased in bulk cost about half as much as the prepackaged versions.

7. Bring measuring cups & produce bags.

Raise your hand if you have a random amount of some obscure ingredient that you bought for a recipe left over in your cupboard. If you’re anything like us, you don’t want to waste perfectly good food, but you also don’t have a use for it now.

To prevent this in the future, consider bringing measuring cups and produce bags with you to the supermarket so that you buy only as much of an ingredient as you need from the bulk bins. Since you’ll be shopping in bulk, you get to save money and the environment at the same time.

Pro Tip: When filling your bag with a bulk item, place the bag inside the measuring cup so your bag lines the cup and the cup never touches the food. That way you won’t have to go dipping questionably clean measuring supplies in the public bulk bins. Trust me—this will save you from getting some wicked glares!

8. Learn how to read food labels.

Whenever we see a product labeled “vegan,” we want to do a little dance because it saves us time having to scan through the ingredients list to make sure that a product is vegan-friendly.

There have been oh-so-many times when we found a product labeled “plant-based” or “dairy-free,” only to find out that there was a sneaky non-vegan ingredient hiding out in there. For example, some soy cheeses contain the milk protein casein, rendering them non-vegan.

At the same time, many food products won’t explicitly label themselves “vegan” since some consumers have misconceptions about what vegan food is and what a vegan lifestyle means. Some vegan products (like Justin’s Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups) will even say “may contain dairy” on the package for legal reasons, even though there is no dairy in the ingredients.

In other words, your first few trips to the grocery store as a vegan will take some time since you’ll be pouring over ingredient lists, but you’ll soon become such a pro at identifying vegan products that you can zip through the grocery store as quickly as during your pre-vegan days! To make things a little easier on yourself, why not check out our guide to animal ingredients that may be lurking in your foods.

9. Explore all of your local supermarkets.

Of course the higher-end health food store in your community are going to have vegan-friendly options. But the last time we checked, health food stores don’t have a monopoly on stocking vegan-friendly products. In fact, more and more budget or middle-tier supermarkets are beginning to offer vegan-friendly options to cater to more health-conscious and cruelty-conscious folks like yourself.

So, as you begin exploring your vegan lifestyle, we recommend checking out several supermarkets in your area (or heck, even online!) to see which vendor has the most vegan-friendly options at a reasonable price.

I personally do most of my weekly shopping at Trader Joe’s and Sprouts, but I pop into Whole Foods for specialty items. I also like to go to my local Natural Foods store or visit Vitacost online for harder-to-find food items. When I’m shopping on a super-tight budget, you might find me at WinCo or Grocery Outlet.

10. Stock up on pantry essentials.

We’re totally in favor of shopping locally and in-season whenever possible. But there are some things that you need to have in your kitchen year-round! We recommend checking out our previous post about 15 vegan pantry essentials every vegan needs.

Minimally, we recommend that you have the following stocked in your kitchen:

• Plant-based milk for smoothies, cereal, baking, and to go with cookies
• A versatile vegan cheese that pairs well with pizza, pasta, sandwiches, and crackers
• Nutritional yeast, because it makes everything taste so wonderfully cheesy
• Nuts so that you can create your own nut milk and cheeses (cashews are my favorite to have on hand)
• Beans that you can use in veggie burgers, soups, hummus, spreads, baked goods (!) and more
• Tofu, which is pretty much the G.O.A.T. of versatile vegan ingredients (seriously, you can turn tofu into pretty much anything imaginable!)
• A pre-made vegan-friendly meal that you can prepare in a snap

So, now that you know how to shop like a pro, you’re probably wondering just where you should start shopping.

We recommend that you first check out your favorite local markets to see what vegan fare they offer. Even smaller grocery chains are beginning to offer more vegan-friendly products, so you may be surprised at how easy it is to be vegan at your favorite grocer!

But, if you don’t have the time to visit smaller specialty markets, you can always check out some of the major regional and national supermarkets below.

Vegan Shopping at Trader Joe’s

Why we love it: Folks, Trader Joe’s is pretty much the holy grail of vegan grocery shopping.

Vegan Shopping at Aldi’s

Why we love it: Aldi’s is pretty much the place to be if live in the eastern half of the United States (or southern California!) and are shopping on a tight budget. True, what makes Aldi’s so special is that it’s a no-frills kind of grocery store: You bring your own shopping bags, you pay a quarter to use a shopping cart, and you have will have only a handful of options for any given products as opposed to the tens that you would see at a major grocery store.

But that no-nonsense approach to shopping means that you’ll be hard-pressed to find prices as low as what Aldi’s offers at almost any other major grocery chain. And did we mention how many plant-based finds Aldi’s has, despite their more limited offerings? In the past few years, Aldi’s has been debuting more and more vegan-friendly products that are just as good as what you could purchase at Trader Joe’s or Whole Foods, but at a lower price.

Who it’s best for:

Frequently Asked Questions

Can children be fed a plant-based diet?

Because of their many health benefits, plant-based diets are growing in popularity among adults. Parents may be concerned about whether a plant-based diet can be safe for their children. Yes, children can have a plant based diet provided it is planned and meets their nutritional requirements.

All the nutrients that children require to grow and develop can be found in plant-based diets. It is vital that children receive enough iron, calcium and vitamin D. The body needs protein to grow and develop. Beans, lentils (tofu), and nuts are good options for this. Fortified cereals, leafy greens, beans and leafy vegetables all contain iron. Calcium is crucial for healthy bones and can be obtained from fortified plant milk, calcium-set tofu, and leafy greens. Vitamin D is vital for bone health. You can get it from fortified milk, sunlight exposure, and fortified plant milk. Vitamin B12, vital for healthy nerves as well as blood cells, is only available in animal products. Therefore, children on a plant-based diet may need to take a B12 supplement.

Also, it is important that children who eat a plant-based diet get enough calories to meet their energy requirements. Whole foods should include fruits, vegetables and whole grains. To meet their energy requirements, children may need to eat less or eat more often.

Parents should consult a registered dietitian or a healthcare professional to make sure that their child is eating a plant-based diet. They can also help with meal planning and supplementation as well as determining the best portion sizes for their child.

The bottom line is that children can follow a planned plant-based diet that meets both their nutritional and physical needs. With proper planning and guidance from a registered dietitian or healthcare professional, parents can ensure that their children eat a nutritious and healthy plant-based diet.

Is a plant based diet the same thing as a vegan?

A plant-based diet can be very different from a vegan diet. A plant-based eating plan is one that focuses on whole grains, fruits, vegetables and legumes. This eating pattern generally reduces or eliminates animal products like meat and dairy. However, some animal proteins may still be consumed. Veganism, on the other hand is a lifestyle choice that focuses exclusively on plant-based nutrition and avoids products such as clothing or cosmetics made from animal products. Although vegans may also choose to adopt a plant based diet as part their lifestyle, they are separate concepts.

How can a Plant-Based Diet help boost your Health?

A plant-based lifestyle can offer many health benefits. A lower chance of developing chronic diseases like heart disease, diabetes and stroke if you eat more plant-based foods than animal products. Plant-based diets contain vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and other beneficial compounds that can help protect against inflammation and oxidative damage. Because of the abundance of dietary fibre, eating plenty of vegetables, fruits, beans, and legumes has been proven to be beneficial. It feeds gut bacteria, maintains digestive health, and is a great way to get enough. Low levels of saturated fats are a common feature of plant-based meals plans, which can help increase cholesterol levels. Studies show that a plant based diet may reduce anxiety and depression symptoms. You can promote long-term satiety by eating a mix of plant-based foods and healthy fats, such as avocados or nuts.

Statistics

• In the United States, poor-quality diet is the most significant predictor of early death, according to an article published in the May 2017 Journal of Geriatric Cardiology. (everydayhealth.com)
• A study found that livestock provides just 18 percent of calories consumed globally but takes up 83 percent of farmland. (forksoverknives.com)

How To

How can I incorporate more whole food into a plant-based lifestyle?

You can improve your health by making conscious efforts to eat more whole foods. Start by replacing animal protein and processed foods with more nutritious options like legumes, seeds and nuts. Consuming whole grains, nuts, fruits and vegetables provides sustenance.

Make sure you have a variety of colors included in every meal. Colorful ingredients contain powerful antioxidants that boost immunity - think red pepper strips, oranges, black beans, spinach, and corn muffins! It's easy to create meals that reflect seasonal produce, using delicious recipes like smoothies, stir-fries, or casseroles.

Whole foods have a much longer shelf life than processed ones, which can be advantageous. It is possible to save time and shop more efficiently by planning your meals in advance.

To create a sustainable balanced lifestyle, you should explore all possible options. From making vegan cookies to substituting fish for chicken, there are many ways to do this. Exploration is key to making food choices that are healthy and delicious.
