And so many veggie dishes also marked gluten free! As a vegetarian coeliac, it can be a bit of a nightmare on cruises, as it's the meat/fish dishes they tend to make GF, so for me this would be fab. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just noticed that the Vegan menu lists Vegan cheese! That’s totally new for Princess. I wonder if it would be possible to request Vegan cheese on a hamburger or pizza? I also noticed that there are only two Vegan Main items. I am not vegan, just dairy free. I wonder which brand of Vegan cheese that they use? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course I realize that fruit has natural sugar. I assumed that the poster was referring to ADDED sugar in the non fresh fruit. Thank you for your pearls of wisdom and source. They could have asked specifically if it was canned fruit with added sugar, but did not. The thread is about vegan food. Yet somehow the question as asked seemed to imply that a vegan diet allowed for no sugar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare 20165 Posted March 18 #187 Share Posted March 18 This is a great read and good to know there are options on cruise ships. We are vegan, but cheat when we are on vacation. We do it for health reasons, not because we are against eating animals or animal products like some vegans are. That being said, when we retire and cruise more often, we may get a little more strict with staying vegan on the cruises. Now its once or twice a year so we dont worry about it, but if we were on a 14+ day cruise while retired, we would probably be more strict about it. thanks again for the read. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soccermom4 Posted March 19 #188 Share Posted March 19 I also appreciate this thread. Considering cruising on Princess (have done RCCL, CCL and HAL) and was curious about vegan options. We eat vegan at home but flex a bit - including fish - when cruising. It is tough to get a variety of vegan food when cruising. Each cruise line varies so much with the way they handle it. Ordering in advance is a bit of a pain - especially if you want to decide last minute whether or not to eat in the dining room. I've heard that Oceania is by the far the best - but haven't tried them yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am optimistic that the vegetarian dishes can be prepared vegan, especially if ordered in advance. My husband is vegan and we typically have to choose his food day before. Seems the Vegan menu will give more options. Also noticed addition of vegan cheeses, plant based burgers. It's come a very long way from our first cruise when he had to bring many cans of beans on board to feed himself - lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Ombud Posted March 19 #190 Share Posted March 19 @Familycruzer11 and a long way from a slab of tofu!! I pre-order to omit pepper, low sodium, vegetarian (but vegan works). If there isn't anything I like I just ask my assigned HW to surprise me and I've never been disappointed 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't eat meat at home, but I will have something like a beef filet or a lobster on a cruise. I hope I can look at the Vegan menu in the MDR though, as I know I would prefer veg/vegan meals most meals. The vegan menu shown on this thread is very appealing. Fingers crossed it's on the Enchanted Princess when we sail in August. Lorie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our plan is not to scrutinize everything for dairy, eggs, etc. However, were not going to eat a big steak, probably go into meat shock... But we will eat some seafood. Im sure the buffet will have vegan options which will keep us on track for at least some of the meals during the day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only dessert I remember was sorbet ( or fruit) . But vegan also means no eggs so you may have more options.

You shall eat dessert. They were generally mousse-y type pies and vegan cheesecake sort of things. There was a chocolate cake one night which coincidentally was also gluten free.

rbtan Posted May 19 #199 Share Posted May 19 Any good chef can make a vegan cake. You just use Almond flour & preferably a good EVO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but the "chefs" on cruises are cooking/baking for thousands of people. Not sure they have the freedom or impetus to make something for the tens that might be vegan. I think they're very careful about life threatening allergies but this isn't that - and my husband is a vegan for his health so we'd be thrilled to have more choices but don't expect them on large cruiselines. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
