What is a Vegan diet?
A vegan diet excludes all animal-derived foods, including meat, poultry, fish, dairy, eggs, and honey. It focuses on plant-based sources such as fruits, vegetables, grains, legumes, nuts, and seeds. Many people choose veganism for ethical, environmental, or health reasons. When well-planned, it provides sufficient protein, fiber, and antioxidants, though supplementation or fortified foods may be needed for nutrients like vitamin B12, iron, and omega-3 fatty acids. Vegan diets are associated with lower risks of heart disease and improved digestion but require mindfulness to ensure balanced and complete nutrition.

Kitchen staple
🔥I grew up on this stuff. It’s always in my fridge. I put it on everything. 🍜 It’s a must in every Asian house. 🪭

Ingredients contain garlic....
Am a big fan!
Love adding this to plain rice.

No Bueno
Between the garlic and sulfites, Sriracha is not for me. Even my husband who does eat garlic and spicy, doesn’t like the flavor blend of Sriracha, preferring blends we get here in the southwest and at our Asian grocery. I can tolerate some brands of Sambal Oelek (fresh ground chili paste), but I have to watch the sulfites. Side note, I have driven by the Huy Fong factory in California.
Why Is This ok? The 4th Ingredient Is Garlic.
Garlic!
