I've stopped shopping at the big supermarkets, like Kroger, etc, because I found the wide variety of vegan convenience processed foods isn't really good for me. Every time I went to the Big Box stores, my cart just seemed to come out filled with Beyond Burgers, vegan sausages, Incogmeato, Gardien, and all the rest.
I've switched my shopping to a small local store that has a good produce dept, and a tiny section of Morningstar Farms items, and some plant based meatballs. For things like vegan mayo, tofu, Miyoko's, wholegrain bread, and other specialty items; I head over to the local health food store.
This new plan has helped my diet and my wallet. When I walk out of the store now, my cart is filled with produce, beans, grains, frozen veggies, and not much else. I was eating a much healthier vegan diet before the surge in vegan convenience foods.
I think the new plant based vegan foods will help people reduce their consumption of animal products; and it is certainly better for the animals and the environment, but it wasn't healthier for me.
