Unlike many other trendy diets and food trends, veganism is not a fad – it is here to stay. The popularity of veganism has shot through the roof over the past few years, so much so that the plant-based lifestyle is now considered to have gone mainstream.
Chef’s Pencil has analyzed the rise of veganism world-wide through the lens of Google Trends, a reliable big data provider. Google Trends lets you analyze the popularity of various search categories around the world such as veganism, which comprises vegan-related searches made in any language (e.g. “veganism”, “vegan restaurants”, “vegane rezepte”, “vegan essen”).
While some of these searches are made out of curiosity, a high volume of vegan-related searches, such as vegan recipes or vegan restaurants near me, show a clear adoption or intent to adopt a vegan lifestyle.
Google Trends data confirms that veganism is growing fast. 2018 was a record year for veganism searches, up 11% on 2017, and 35% on 2016.
Google allocates an interest score to each location, showing the level of interest in the topic at that location. For example, if Sweden holds an 84 score for veganism and Germany holds a 60 score, it means that a higher percentage of people in Sweden have made vegan-related searches compared to Germany.
We’re going to take a look at the most popular places for veganism in Europe in 2018, and surprisingly the top ten is dominated by countries in the North.
Please see below the countries that ranked in the top 20:
1. United Kingdom (Score 100)
The United Kingdom is the proud home of as many as 3.5 million new vegans, according to a survey carried out by comparethemarket.com. The people of the UK have so embraced veganism that UK cities dominate the European top 10, with six cities taking the prime spots. The media has played a big role in spreading the popularity of veganism among Brits, and the Veganuary campaign, which invited people to try out the vegan lifestyle for the first month of this year, had a huge impact.
Is there even a vegan restaurant in Budapest? There was a very good vegetarian one in central Budapest, but it got closed down, could not find another after that – that was a good 5 yrs ago so it may have changed. As a vegetarian I can tell you Hungary is very very backward, you cant even get quorn there. You can get some soya related products in v expensive bio shops etc.
