Welcome
Welcome to c/vegan@lemmy.world. Broadly, this community is a place to discuss veganism. Discussion on intersectional topics related to the animal rights movement are also encouraged.
What is Veganism?
'Veganism is a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude—as far as is possible and practicable—all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals ...'
— abridged definition from The Vegan Society
Rules
The rules are subject to change, especially upon community feedback.
- Discrimination is not tolerated. This includes speciesism.
- Topics not relating to veganism are subject to removal.
- Posts are to be as accessible as practicable:
- embedded images of text require alt-text
- posts with an image of text should have a transcription in the body or alt-text
- paywalled articles must have an accessible non-paywalled link;
- use the original source whenever possible for a news article.
- Content warnings are required for triggering content.
- Bad-faith carnist rhetoric & anti-veganism are not allowed, as this is not a space to debate the merits of veganism. Anyone is welcome here, however, and so good-faith efforts to ask questions about veganism may be given their own weekly stickied post in the future.
- before jumping into the community, we encourage you to read examples of common fallacies here.
- if you're asking questions about veganism, be mindful that the person on the other end is trying to be helpful by answering you and treat them with at least as much respect as they give you.
- Posts and comments whose contents – text, images, etc. – are largely created by a generative AI model are subject to removal. We want you to be a part of the vegan community, not a multi-head attention layer running on a server farm.
- Posts linking to Twitter/X or any similar site will be removed.
- No brigading, either off-site or on-site. An incitement to brigade includes two elements: a call to disruptive action and a specific direction outside of this community in which to take that action. Exceptions include:
- Calls to boycott.
- Calls to in-person protest of a government, high-profile individual, or company/organization.
- Votes provided they have a sufficiently broad target audience or provably effective controls against vote brigading.
- Petitions.
- All Lemmy.World Terms of Service also apply.

Korean kimchi noodle soup with thinly sliced tomato, tofu and spring onion. This is my go to late-night snack and if i'm still hungry i eat some nuts and dried fruit as desert.
Man that looks good.
I need to start making kimchi again, the good stuff around here is so expensive for a tiny amount.
Thanks, same here, way too expensive... I made kimchi myself in the past to add to the soup but the kimchi noodles from Nongshim (certified vegan) are great even without added kimchi. They are on the expensive side for instant ramen but the taste is so good that i'm rather eating those sometimes than cheap ones everyday... Just make sure not to cook the noodles, pour the hot water into a bowl together with the noodles, kimchi-flakes and seasoning and top it all with a lid, add the cold sides after around 10 minutes of resting and enjoy maximum flavour.
Those Nongshim kimchi noodles are good! I had to stop eating them as I developed a wheat sensitivity, but they were my go to lunch topped with a Vivera (vegan) Salmon steak and some green onion, for like a year.
Those mock salmon slices only needed to be chopped up to be able to fully cook through in boiling water too, so it was hella convenient.
Nice hint, i'll try that out. Did you put the vegan salmon slices on top of the noodles and poured the boiling water on top of it or did you cook it all together?
I chopped them into bite sized pieces and just stuck them on top of the dry noodle cake in my lunchbox/tupperware, to be cooked with boiled water at lunch time.
Not the healthiest to be cooking stuff in plastic like that, but it was hella convenient.
