I'm soon to be in Czechia for a few days and I'm assuming the provided food options "on site" will not allow for a vegan diet, so just wondering if any Czech comrade can answer my questions how the situation is in supermarkets.. I will be able to get groceries from a Lidl but probably don't want to cook fresh, so I'm looking for stuff I can eat cold or warm up on a grill or such. Unfortunately I don't speak the language, so how do I know what products are vegan? What labels are commonly used, V-Label? Does Lidl in Czechia generally carry vegan products? Can I look up online which products are available in a particular Lidl? Google won't show me the translation for the Lidl page for some reason, IDK. So yea, any tips or experience is much appreciated, thank you! Oh also if there's some kind of common vegan street food I should be looking out for that would be awesome too.

      not a vegan and unfortunately not living in czechia rn so dont know they lay of the land on that sort of thing because usually i just yeet myself off to the mountains immediately to visit family whenever i go. i do have meal replacement shakes all the time cause i have bad ptsd and making food is too hard, and turns out almost all the good tasting meal replacement shakes are vegan

      is kinda cool we got a lot of czechs on here now

    This is mostly specific to Prague, but there are also links to vegan Czech products to buy in grocery stores.

    i'm not sure if you're willing to eat out, but check Happy Cow. if you can't find good options for restaurants or supermarket stuff and you're not gonna stay long i'd consider having a diet that mostly consists of nuts while you're there. tastes good and has a shit ton of calories and an ok amount of protein.

      Probably won't have the time, but I'll bookmark that page for future reference, very useful. If I find nothing else, nuts, veggies, fruit, bread will sustain me but it feels a little isolating when everyone else has a warm meal, that's probably just a mental thing lol
