There’s something so magical about festivals in the UK. The excitement as you search for outfits on Vinted and plan for rain, sun and everything in between.

The race to set up your tent in a good spot (and wondering whether 2pm is too early for a G&T).

But for those of us who don’t eat meat and dairy, or anyone wanting to cut down on animal foods, is there enough to keep you satiated for four whole days of partying?

Bile comes up my throat and it taste disgusting. I think it would be like quitting smoking, I suppose if I really wanted to I would eventually readjust, but why?
I wish I could say that about cheese, but the reality is there are good vegan cheeses, they're just hard to keep track of and double the price (and shouldn't be). If these influencers have a sh!t they would do more to make them accessible
