Top 3 Vegan Holiday Party Survival Tips:

  • BRING YOUR OWN DISH OR SNACK
    Chances are, non-vegans don’t know how to make vegan dishes (remember how much learning it took for you). So why not help them out; the best tips for vegans going to holiday parties is to prepare your own holiday dish and take it along.
  • EAT BEFORE YOU GO
    If you’re afraid of stepping on toes by brining a dish, then eat before you go to the party to avoid a grumbling tummy all evening. This is especially helpful if you’re a new vegan and don’t want to be tempted by other foods.
  • DON’T BE OFFENDED
    Non-vegans aren’t going to drastically change what they use and eat simply because you’re vegan. Remember, it’s a lifestyle choice and everyone isn’t going to agree with you. Instead, have fun and stick to your principles and don’t feel pressured or offended when others try to get you to change your mind. Be ready for the questions and prepare informed and friendly answers to open your relatives and friends minds.
