Markets

Tips: |
| * Besides food, many of these local markets offer household cleaners, toiletries, cosmetics, and other items that are cruelty free and contain no animal products. Ask a knowledgeable employee or someone in customer service if you need assistance in understanding how to select these products. |
| * Genetically engineered foods can be avoided by purchasing "certified" organic produce or other products. |
| * Check out local farms, farmers markets, and CSA's (Community Supported Agriculture) programs through the Northeast Organic Farming Association. |

Tips for eating out: |
| Choosing vegan food can sometimes make eating out a bit challenging, but don't despair! Try Asian, Indian, Italian, Middle Eastern, and other ethnic restaurants which will almost always have something to suit your needs. If you're out of town and are having a hard time locating a restaurant, call a local health food store and ask an employee for a suggestion. Visit websites such as happycow or vegdining for markets and restaurants throughout the world. While there are many other restaurants in Rhode Island where you can find vegan items, we wanted to highlight the following variety and selection. Call RIVA if you'd like us to add a restaurant. Here are some suggestions that may help you have an enjoyable dining experience~ |
|
| |
| Don’t be afraid to ask and speak up as you are the customer. |
| * Many restaurants will make substitutions and adjust dishes to accommodate your preferences. |
* Chinese and Thai restaurants commonly use fish / chicken broth even in listed as vegetarian.
But they can substitute soy sauce or another sauce if you ask. |
| * Chicken broth is also a common sauce or soup base in many restaurant dishes. |
| * Salad dressings and spaghetti sauces sometimes contain cheese or anchovies. |
| * Call ahead before going to a new restaurant and ask questions about their menu. |
| * Let restaurants know that you’d like to see more vegan options. |
