THE QUESTIONNAIRE!


Eventually I will try and upload a prinatble PDF of the questionnaire that I'm handing in to eateries, but for now here is a copy of it from word-apologies for the dodgy formatting in places! 

QUESTIONNAIRE
The purpose of this questionnaire is to find out which restaurants/eateries  in Colchester have good vegan options, and to publish the findings on my website http://vegancolchester.blogspot.co.uk/
Eating out can be hard for vegans, so I am aiming to make it easier for them. (What does this mean for you?  -Well as well as directing vegan’s business your way, I’ll also be directing their family/friends’ business you way!)
I would appreciate it if you/your chef could take the time to fill in as much of the following questionnaire as possible,  I  will be returning to collect it by     _____________________



Firstly, to clarify
A vegan will not eat any animal products, for example:
  • No meat, fish nor other products that come directly from killing an animal, such as animal fats and gelatine.
  • No dairy products such as cows milk, cheese, butter, cream and yoghurt, ghee; nor goats milk.
  • No eggs nor foods containing eggs such as Quorn.
  • No honey.
However vegans will eat meals/foods made from:
·         fruits, vegetables,
·         nuts, seeds, beans, peas, lentils,
·         rice and other grains, couscous, pasta (egg free)
·         mushrooms, herbs and plant-based spices and plant based oils (eg olive, vegetable etc).
