vegan for 25 years here. not a competition - just wanted to say it has gotten a lot easier over the years. when i first went vegan, not many people even knew what vegan meant. and many grocery stores carry items that i could previous only find at food co-ops (vegan cheeses, vegan ice creams, and so on).
also with apps and websites like Happy Cow (https://www.happycow.net) it is even easier to find vegan food on the go.
