WALNUTS. The vitamin B12 in them is harder to digest than in meats, but it still exists.
Nothing fortified, as their fortification is not vegan.
Yeast extracts, tofu products and TVP (textured vegetable protein) work great too, but walnuts go with everything and nobody goes "Eww" when you eat them.

Vegans are recommended to ensure their diet includes foods fortified with vitamin B12. A range of B12 fortified foods are available. These include yeast extracts, Vecon vegetable stock, veggieburger mixes, textured vegetable protein, soya milks, vegetable and sunflower margarines, and breakfast cereals.

B12 is cobalt. Just get the cheapest B12 or cobalt tablet you can at your local drug store. You can take it either daily (I do) or weekly. It's important not to get deficient in it because all sorts of thing go wrong if you do.
