Vegan staples shopping list

Any time a recipe (even a non-vegan one) calls for "X", you can just swap it out for the vegan version in the exact same amount called for in the recipe

• "Butter" = margarine - in Germany: Naturli bio veganes streichfett at Alnatura, Buttella Sonnenblumen at Aldi, Letta at Rewe
• "Milk" = oat / soy / hazelnut / etc milk. Corina's favorite is chocolate Oatley.
• "Cheese" = fav vegan versions include the flavors natur and character for all purposes and hirtengenuss for a feta alternative - all from Simply V (Rewe, Hit, Kaufland, Aldi in Germany), also Rewe Bio Mozzarisella in a 3-cheese pizza. Daiya mozzarella or Chao (at most stores in the US)
• "Eggs" = you can just leave them out. Or you can add some baking powder (maybe 1t to 1T). If you need a great thickener, mix cornstarch in a little bit of cold water and add to a warm mixture and stir until thick. Don't add bananas though because it will make the whole dish taste like bananas.
• "Cream" = Oatley cream or coconut cream at Rewe
• "Cream cheese" = vegan versions include Simply V streichgenuss and Oatley aufstrich at Rewe, Kaufland, and Hit in Germany
• "Chocolate" = many dark chocolates are already vegan so just check the ingredients to make sure it  doesn't have milk or milk powder. There are also lots of vegan milk chocolates. Our favorites are Hello salted caramel at Rewe for eating and Ja chocolate at Rewe for baking.
• "Marshmallows" = the non-vegan ingredient in these is gelatin, which is made from animals. Replace with Not Guilty Marilyn Mallow from Alnatura in Germany or with Dandies at Whole Foods, co-ops, and health food stores in the US.
• "Mayonnaise" = veganaise in the US (sold at most places) and Veganz sandwichcreme klassik at Edeka in Germany.
• "Noodles" = just make sure they don't have eggs in them
• "Bread" = just make sure it doesn't have lactic acid or enzymes. Both CAN be vegan, but it will only explicitly say it if they are.
• "Sugar" = some sugar is whitened by filtering it through fish bones. In Europe, most sugar is vegan. In the US, if it is labeled ORGANIC or UNREFINED then it is vegan (more info at PETA for US products). It is vegan if it is made from beets 
• "Stock" = there are vegan stock cubes at Vitalia (Cenovis Bio ohne MSG) and Rewe (Bio Gemüsebrühe)
