What I Eat In A Day: Veganuary With Flo
Did you know that 80% of our Skinny Food Co products are vegan? We at Skinny Food Co pride ourselves on being able to offer alternative products that fit within a wide variety of dietary requirements, whether you're vegan, diabetic, dairy-free or simply looking to cut back on calories and sugar, we provide healthier alternatives to your much-loved syrups, sauces & snacks.
With welcoming in the New Year, many of us take this time to reflect upon how we would like to improve ourselves going forward, for many people this is a change of diets, habits or lifestyle.
One of the most popular trends amongst this is 'Veganuary'. Which is dedicated to spending the entire month of January swapping out animal products for their plant-based alternatives.
In 2022, Veganuary inspired over 620,000 people to try the vegan-lifestyle, across 220 countries (veganuary.com). Amongst those 600,000 + people are well known celebrities such as Joaquin Phoenix, Lucy Watson, Paul Mcartney, Evanna Lynch end even Billie Eilish.
And we're taking part too! This January we'll be sharing success stories from our wonderful customers & ambassadors, who will be showcasing their healthy & delicious vegan meals to inspire you throughout this vegan-month. We'll be looking at how our vegan-friendly products can be made in breakfasts, lunch & dinner alongside healthy snacks and drinks.
Introducing Flo:
Flo is a plant-based veteran of 4 years, who made the change to swap to veganism due to the climate crisis and in the hopes to reduce her carbon footprint.

Flo regularly posts and updates her 17,000 followers on Instagram (@What_Flo_Eats) of her daily meal plans, consisting of anything from healthy snacks, to light lunches and even healthy vegan dinners.
We spoke with Flo and asked her to provide us a guide to a day in the life of her vegan diet, with her favourite breakfasts, lunch, snacks and drinks
