I've been caught being a Junk food Vegan

There are a lot of delicious foods available that are vegan: but some are delicious AND terrible. My doctor was looking over my lab results a few years ago and noticed that my fasting glucose level was high. "What are you eating?'', she asked me. "Just two Oreo cookies at night,'' I replied. Busted. That was my end to routinely eating Oreos. I have since read that they are about as addictive as crack. Definitely not a healthy vegan staple. For fun, I recently tried a Vegan Junk Food restaurant in Boulder. I discovered that even if it's a meat substitute, my body is not a fan of fried food. That being said, the jury seems to be in on the meat alternatives, and it's positive. 1 I do my best to stay away from too much salt, and continue to eat a good balanced diet of plant based food. I do love a good Beyond Burger, with all the fixings, when we are grilling out. Vegan or not, you will find it surprisingly delicious, and healthier than red meat. Give it a try.
