Yahoo Movies Best vegan subscription boxes in the UK 2022: hot meals and plant-based snacks, to the best vegan beauty boxes
Whether you’re a vegan virgin or you’re looking to expand your food or beauty horizons into plant-based pastures, subscription services are a great way to trial and find your new go-to products.
Veganism has established itself well beyond a passing trend, and while it was once challenging to track down products free from any animal derivatives, it is now easier than ever to commit to a plant-based diet, from supermarket and restaurant offerings, to beauty and wellness.
The same rings true for subscription services. We are obsessed. You can find a subscription for just about anything these days, whether you are looking for a regular supply of washing machine capsules, a curated selection of soft furnishings or pet food – there really is something for everyone.
A vegan subscription box ensures that cruelty-free goodies are always conveniently close to hand. Doing future you a real favour, they allow you to sign up monthly or in package deals to have products delivered regularly directly to your home or office. Boxes come filled with carefully selected products or meal services that will mix up your diet, introduce you to new produts and take the guesswork out of veganism.
Below we have gathered our favourites, ranging from beauty to seeds that you will help you grow your own herbs and spices.
Grubby
Founded as a vegan recipe kit service, Grubby has a roster of over 60 all-vegan recipes on offer to fuel hungry plant-based customers. The subscription is completely flexible, which is great for both veteran and virgin vegans - you can order when you like. Ingredients come from British family run farms, winning brownie ponts for both lowering its carbon footprint and supporting local businesses. And it runs a charity initative too, donating one meal for a child in need for every box purchased.
On the menu right now you’ll find the likes of Mushroom Gyros with Oregano Fries to satisfy any takeaway urges, Teriyaki Jackfruit and Chinese Broccoli (ditto), and beautifuly spiced Harissa cauliflower, spinach quinoa and avocado buddha with tahini sauce. Going vegan never looked more appealing.
Add three meals for two diners to unlock the best price, which was £24.50 when we chose the aforementioned options. What’s more, new customers will get £10 off their first two boxes. Win.
