Vegan dining and shopping options are on the rise in the land of beef and barbecue. We recently learned of a vegan movie theater coming to Fort Worth, and now a cruelty-free convenience store named “Vegan Freak” has just opened its doors at 301 S. Elm St. in the thriving college town of Denton, just north of Dallas!
Co-owners Abbey Autry and Brendan Carroll created Vegan Freak to make hard-to-find vegan items more readily accessible for everyone. Located on a former used car lot, the 400-square-foot shop offers packaged food and sweets sourced from completely vegan companies. Customers can also find a variety of specialty goods, including cosmetics and body care products, jewelry made by vegan artists, eco-friendly cleaning products, and even non-leather sports balls.
Ultimately, Abbey hopes Vegan Freak will provide “a truly guilt-free shopping experience,” while serving as a convenient place for those curious about compassionate living. Mercy For Animals applauds Abbey and Brendan for their efforts to make vegan eating even easier. Please check out Vegan Freak on Facebook for store details and visit VegGuide.org to find more veg-friendly businesses near you.
