Welcome to another episode of The Keto Vegan Podcast! Rachel, your dedicated host, is back to share her latest adventures in navigating the world as a keto vegan. In this episode, Rachel talks about her recent experience at her cousin's wedding, where she faced yet another challenge with the food options—or lack thereof—for vegans. Unfortunately, there were no keto vegan options, and to make matters worse, the vegan dishes she requested were gone by the time she arrived. This marks the second wedding where she's encountered this issue, and it's starting to get quite frustrating.
Rachel also recounts her trip to Butlins for an Adult Big Weekender. Thankfully, the food situation was slightly better due to the availability of a small kitchen, allowing her to bring her own food. Despite this, she ended up trying a not-so-great vegan burger at one of the pubs and later broke keto for a surprisingly enjoyable Vegan Royale at Burger King, which she suspects was more enjoyable due to a few too many G&Ts.
On a brighter note, Rachel shares her visit to VK Diner in Waterlooville, a fantastic spot her daughter discovered. This diner specialises in vegan ‘dirty’ food and offers a refreshing change with its extensive menu, giving Rachel more than just one or two options to choose from.
Join Rachel as she delves into these stories and reflects on the ongoing challenges and occasional triumphs of being a keto vegan in a world that's still catching up.
