Earth Society volunteers are pleasantly surprised that there are lots of vegan options in Cafe30 during the Earth Awareness week. There are vegan pizzas, vegan chappatis, vegan fired rice, vegan chicken rice and even vegan ice-creams (non-dairy ice-creams) during the week. Our volunteers gladly enjoyed the delicious vegan food available and named Facebook as one of the most vegan-friendly company in Singapore. :>
We are glad that more companies are recognising the environmental and health benefits of the plant-based diet and are taking the initiative to promote the message to their staffs. We hope the plant-based movement will spread far and wide and encourage everyone to join in to bring Health to the people and usher in a Sustainable Future for the planet.
