Hey man!
I totally agree. Being vegan isn't expensive if you shop normally. If you're only buying expensive brand name food that's specifically marketed as vegan, along with vegan cheeses etc..then yeah sure it can get pricey. No different to the rest of the non-vegan community out there. They go through the same choices we do.
I'll be sure to check out your other posts to learn more about your life as a vegan. It's great to connect with other like-minded individuals!
Here's a little a bit about my journey, but it was essentially a response to a Steemit member who made some silly arguments against vegetarianism.
Take care - sending love from Australia!
Warm regards,
Nick
