I have a dairy allergy, every where sells quorn which either contains milk or comes from a factory dealing with dairy products and so may be contaminated. I have to constantly shop at hralth shops which is expensive and tiume consuming. I am fed up with sald and veg.

You aren't going to like this but a vegan diet is very unhealthy when it is comprised of processed foods. That is the source of both your problem and your issue. All supermarkets are vegan friendly. The problem is you want them to carry products that are not a good choice for that type of diet. They are expensive and they are junk food and, when you eat vegan, you really can't afford to eat stuff like that. A more balanced diet can get away with it but not a strict vegan one. If you don't like/can't eat the foods you have to in order to maintain a healthy vegan diet (as opposed to an unhealthy vegan diet) than it is probably a poor choice for you to be vegan in the first place. A better choice, however, would be to study up on what MUST be in your diet and learn to cook so that you have plenty of good tasting and nourishing food choices. Once you do that, ANY grocery store will suit your needs. And the cost of your food budget will be much lower and the food better tasting and MUCH better for you than that processed crapola.

We got a store over here in Mount Vernon, WA called the Food Co-op. They do have some meats in there but everything is organic. Organic-only grocery stores are a tad more expensive, but they're always a more trendy place for vegans. A great place to meet women also, so I hear!

It depends on where you live! The Fresh Market is a great vegan friendly grocery, it does sell meat, but it is quality organics and has a HUGE selection of vegan products. Most grocery stores have a healthy living section now.

Whole Foods!
It's an organic supermarket chain that has a ton of vegan stuff--I do most of my shopping there. Check out the website and see if there's one close to you! :)

I am in the Michigan area and the Vegetarians I know prefer to shop at a store called "Whole Foods".

Sprouts. It's mainly an inexpensive health food shop, but it DOES have a TEENY bit of meat in there. Awesome prices, and good quality veggies.

I don't know if you're where you can get to one, but U-Krops (check spelling) has a large organic section. You might find stuff like what you need there.
Good luck!
