Vegan Food May Soon Be Required by Law at Los Angeles Venues

Los Angeles residents may soon be eating more
tofu
with their entertainment. A proposed city law would require movie theaters, sports stadiums, the Los Angeles Zoo, Los Angeles International Airport restaurants and other large-scale entertainment venues to sell at least one vegan protein option.
Los Angeles city councilman Paul Koretz was inspired by a desire to fight climate change, and make it easier for non-meat eaters to be fed well,
according to CBS Los Angeles
. The proposed law would have to be approved by the Los Angeles City Attorney’s Office before going into effect.
If the law does pass scrutiny, adding plant-based offerings shouldn’t be a challenge. Koretz
told Variety
, “There’s really no downside to it. The change could easily be made in any venue. A movie theater serves
hot dogs
. They can serve vegan dogs. It’s easy.”
New York may have been named the
best city for vegans
, but clearly LA wants to compete for that title too. It makes sense that a city as notoriously cutting edge about
healthy eating
would want to provide more vegan options. With fast food chain Del Taco serving their Beyond Avocado
vegan taco
, made with Beyond Meat, and
White Castle selling Impossible Burger
sliders nationwide, consumers are getting used to having plant-based choices even in typically carnivorous establishments.
Whether you already eat a strictly plant-based diet, are getting a head start on your New Year’s resolution to avoid animal products for the month of “
Veganuary
” or simply want to explore new tastes, check out the delicious food at some of America’s
best vegan restaurants
