Let’s face it — football tailgates and Superbowl parties aren’t the most vegan-friendly occasions. And even if you’re not strictly vegan, dairy allergies are far too common, making saying you’re “vegan” an easy way to opt for that {sadly} cheese-free life. That’s why we’re sharing our top locations for grab-and-go vegan tailgate foods along with some recipes for that upcoming sports gathering you’re hosting. After all, Tom Brady, who is arguably the best quarterback in the league, eats mostly vegan (along with his supermodel wife) and is even an investor in the vegan meal-delivery service, Purple Carrot. Check out our list of vegan-friendly spots in Hoboken and Jersey City for football Sunday.
