Great post, my partner is now more serious with her healthy eating, over the last few years so we are always
going to local farmers markets, vegetarian restaurants and even the odd
vegetarian bookshop. Its exciting even if you're not a vegan yourself, theres so much great food around!
Have you added them to local food stores san diego.
