The Big Supermarket Guide to a Vegan Christmas 2023

Big Supermarket Guide to a Vegan Christmas 2023 - Blog Banner

Embrace a Vegan Diet without Forsaking Christmas foods!

Supermarkets, cafés, restaurants, and eateries have once more elevated their offerings this year, providing a wide array of plant-based Christmas alternatives to discover. While the traditional nut roast remains a beloved choice, you can explore a plethora of exciting plant-based options this year.

Here’s our Comprehensive Supermarket Guide to a Vegan Christmas in 2023!

Throughout the coming months, we’ll continuously update this page with new festive vegan supermarket releases. Be sure to bookmark this comprehensive list of all the plant-based Christmas food offerings in 2023 for easy access at any time!

Note: we always recommend double-checking the ingredient list of ‘accidentally’ vegan items and those which are not explicitly labelled vegan, as food manufacturers can adapt recipes without prior notice. Items listed here do not contain ingredients derived from animals at the time of writing but may have been made in factories that handle non-vegan products. Please refer to the manufacturer to learn more about the individual product’s risk for cross-contamination – especially if you suffer from allergies.
