Some people might assume that vegans feel left out at the dinner table around the holidays, especially at Thanksgiving—you know, the holiday where families and friends gather around the table and give thanks by eating a slaughtered bird. The truth is, vegans ♥ Thanksgiving! Why? Because it’s one of the tastiest days of the year!

Tons of compassionate vegan-food companies make some seriously delish vegan turkey, and it’s available at countless grocery stores across the country, including many Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods, Publix, Target, and Kroger locations.

This holiday season, while others are sitting down to a meal of dead turkey flesh, fill your plate (and tummy!) with one of these tasty, cruelty-free meats instead:

#vegan Hazelnut Cranberry Roast En Croute by Field Roast @fieldroast …just one of the many cruelty-free vegan roasts we will enjoy this holiday season, and definitely one of our favorites! ?The wonderful ingredients used to create this puff-pastry-wrapped roast are too numerous to list here, but include Toasted Hazelnuts, Cranberries, Crystallized Ginger, Smoked Apple-Sage Vegan Sausage, and so much more! I got this one at @mothersmarkets (Orange County, CA, USA chain), #foundmyfieldroast ? but they are also available at Whole Foods, Down to Earth @downtoearthhi (Hawaii, USA chain), and other health food grocery stores. #VeganMoFo #vgnmf16 #whatveganseat #veganmaindish #veganroast #fieldroast #encroute #hazelnutcranberryroast #veganwellington #soyfree #veganthanksgiving #turkey #thanksgiving #thanksliving #compassionatethanksgiving #crueltyfreethanksgiving #crueltyfree #loveallaninals #loveturkeysdonteatthem #veganfortheanimals #veganforlife
