Candy, candy, candy. If you’re a vegan, that could be a scary word that revolves around Halloween. But not to worry, there are options for you without having to go through the hassle of online ordering or hunting down a vegan store. In fact, much of the items sold at your local grocery store are vegan.
The People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) provide lists of vegetarian/vegan products on their website, http://www.vegan.org. These lists include everything from food to beauty products, and even candy. PETA has approved such goodies as Airheads, Blow Pops, and Skittles. Don’t assume you’d have to resort to the boring stuff. Living vegan is exciting even around this time of the year. It's the healthiest way to get by Halloween.
With that said, you don’t have to sacrifice your beliefs or sacrifice your cravings because even the healthiest of the healthy people get a sweet tooth sometimes. Actually, some of these candies are low in fat (or even fat-free!), calories, and sugar. Just make sure you continue to watch your servings. You don’t want to walk away from Halloween with a cavity and a belt size bigger.
So, no worries, veg-heads, carry on your healthy, cruelty-free lifestyles, even throughout the holidays.
