The Simply Vegan Podcast is bought to you by the UK’s only vegan magazine, Vegan Food & Living. Hosted by magazine editor Holly Johnson and NEW co-host Em-J for January 2024, join us every Thursday as we chat to some of the inspirational people helping to grow the vegan movement – from chefs and influencers to athletes and doctors.


Holly and Em-J kick off this week's show by discussing some of the 2024 Veganuary launches, including Aldi's Plant Menu Smoked Salmon and Costa's collab with BOSH!, before looking at the latest study from The Vegan Society on the amount the NHS could save if we all went vegan.


We also share our recent dinnertime wins and fails, before our debate of the week – should you keep non-vegan gifts?


Holly also chats to Lisa Morris, who works for our sponsor company SUMA, about the unique way they work and some of the exciting new products currently hitting the shelves.


And in part 2, don't miss our in-depth chat with the Deliciously Ella founder, Ella Mills! Ella shares her journey from chronic illness to the epitome of health via a whole food, plant-based diet and provides us with tips for eating well when life is busy or you just don't have the energy to cook. She also explains why she prefers to use the term plant-based over 'vegan' and why she started food blogging despite never being a real 'foodie'.
