Wow! More Than Half of Americans Plan to Eat More Vegan Foods

Sarah Von Alt April 27, 2016
The number of people interested in adding more plant-based
foods to their diets is growing!
According to a new study by Wakefield Research, 55 percent of
Americans plan to eat more vegan foods this year. Latest
Vegan News
explains:

The research was commissioned
by House Foods (a
leading tofu purveyor), and the results are in line with other, similar
studies and indicators pointing to major change. Plant-based
food was named a top trend for 2016
, and a 2015 study
indicated that 36 percent of
Americans are open to plant-based eating
.

This is far from the first sign that meat is on the way out.
The USDA reports that 400
million fewer animals
were slaughtered in 2014 than in 2007. That’s
400 million individuals who were spared a lifetime of unimaginable suffering.
And just last year, Marketwired reported that plant-based
proteins are poised to take a
third of the protein market by 2054
!
Whether it’s protecting animals, the environment, or your
own health, the benefits of a vegan diet have never been clearer, and delicious
vegan foods have never been more accessible.
