I get mine from Asda. I'm pretty high on Asda at the moment really. Aldi seem to have gone off the boil a bit with their veggie / vegan stuff. Maybe that's just the ones round here though, I don't know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Statto Posted January 11, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted January 11, 2021 The Applewood is good, but it's the Follow Your Heart smoked gouda in first place for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's shit, my local Aldi has more than ever now in both the frozen and fridge sections. No cheese alternatives tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since they stopped doing the jackfruit parcels, I've found the exact same thing at Morrison's, which is handy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merzbow Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Morrison's are pretty good, best of all is the cooked pasty/pie counter as they doa bunch of vegan options. There's not been as much to choose from during Covid tho, those lines had been reduced to a minimum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members BigJag Posted January 12, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted January 12, 2021 I'm sure it's been said before. However the Richmond Vegan sausages are top notch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Guvnor Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Well, after reading this thread, I got some of the Moving Mountains burgers, sausage burgers and hot dog sausages to try yesterday, along with some Richmond meat-free sausages. Fuck me, those Moving Mountains things are expensive. At least I managed to get a three for £10 deal on them, which wasn't quite as bad. £4.50 each otherwise! Who on here do I write to for a refund if I don't like them? Also, I take back everything I said about Aldi having dipped in the veggie / vegan range. I went yesterday, for the first time in about a month, and they've got TONS of new stuff, as well as a load of old stuff back in. Top drawer!

Moving Mountains are used by lots of chains like Harvester and Frankie and Bennys though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will sound a tad ungrateful towards supermarkets, but that’s the trouble with veganuary. You get all this choice and it’s fantastic. Then come February you can’t find a couple of products that you’ve discovered and you’re back to only a few options. So if there is stuff in the frozen section you like, stock up in the last week of January because you may never see them again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might have to spend this weekend trying all the new stuff I've bought then. Diet, hold my beer. Diabetes, you're back in the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not pointing out the £4.50/£3.50 thing (just highlighting a supermarket offer). But there is a difference in saying per pack and each. For me those, and beyond which are normally £5 for 2, are good value for the quality and for something you shouldn’t eat that often. They are treats right?  Maybe I’ve misunderstood the language. But i wasn’t trying to come across as a moody bugger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
