Sorry, it must be frustrating. Hope you can find alternatives to supplement your diet to compensate.Well 2 weeks in as a vegan with shock they know what a vegatarian is but a vegan is a no no. I am fed up with ensalada, potatas frita or pan so I have succumbed to tortilla. Sorry if the spelling is wrong but I've had a couple of vinos tintos tonight.
Maybe it was the time of year we walked (December) but it was very hard to get enough vegetables in our diet. I'm not vegan or even vegetarian, but by the end of the CF I could have killed for a vegetable. We could see vegetables growing, so someone must be eating them, but they certainly weren't serving them to Pilgrims (apart from potatoes). We took to pumpkin soup at every opportunity, and the Galician cabbage soup also served a useful purpose (apart from being tasty). We had to work hard to find and eat enough vegetables.
I can never understand why you see huertas bulging with vegetables in the countryside and the vegetable section of town markets a veritable cornucopia, even supermarkets . . . and yet meals in restaurants and hotels run to salads, fries and sculpted potatoes.Maybe it was the time of year we walked (December) but it was very hard to get enough vegetables in our diet.
