The Best New Shop in Town, Besties Vegan Paradise!

Come experience “vegan paradise” for yourself!

#LunchBreakLIVE at Besties Vegan Paradise in East Hollywood, Los Angeles! You could call it a vegan bodega, a vegan 7/11, a vegan paradise or simply the new vegan destination on Fountain Ave and Edgemont Street! Now meet Alison Shead and Asia Phoenix! These fabulous, young entrepreneurs are taking veganism to the next level, offering products like Rabbit Hole Foods, Violife vegan cheeses, Beyond Meat sausages, Earth Balance vegan butter and more. Sarah Segal and Paige Parsons Roache taste the scrumptious products.

Smoked Salmon and Tofutti cream cheese! Vegan dreams do come true!

Yes you heard right! Everything in this store is vegan!  The products are endless. The owners of this store, Alison and Asia, explain that they opened this location to spread veganism and “to show the world how great it is to be vegan.” These ladies also promote other vegan businesses. Every Saturday they will be inviting vegan vendors to come sell their food and from 12 p.m.-4 p.m. PST. Alison explains that they are in support of any way to save animals’ lives and put an end to factory farming. Being cruelty-free and 100% vegan is a requirement for products that are sold at Besties.

Besties is sure to be your new best friend as soon as you walk in the door!

They took a closed market location and decided to reopen it as vegan one! Veganism is definitely on the rise and this grocery store is a prime example of veganism becoming mainstream. Today, Alison shows us how to make a mock tuna salad sandwich, which you can easily make just by picking up a few products in the store. Paige says the sandwich is absolutely great, and it is perfect to pack for outings. Come out and support vegan businesses and all the amazing vegan products that you may need in one place and Besties Vegan Paradise!

They are open seven days a week and everyone is welcome!
