Trader Joe's (store) is a no brainer for Pittsburgh vegans with Whole Foods as supplemental

I'd skip the more traditional supermarkets like Giant Eagle, Shop n Save entirely. Someone from the 1970's stocks their shelves and they're expensive

Onion Maiden is great!

I like Spak Bros seitan wings but i think their vegan pizza is lackluster. YMMV

Oh yeah I had trader Joe's turkeyless roast this Thanksgiving, it was great!

So So weird that spak's delivers on uber eats but doesn't seem to show up when searching for vegan friendly options near me. Glad someone mentioned it here!

That roast is the best thing ever but super bummer that they don't seem to carry it for Christmas. Bought three in November to tide me over.

Same! Tried the first one skeptically, my first exposure to seitan, and my "red meat and potatoes" grandma even wanted my dad to pick up an extra just for her and my folks sometime after I went home. And my own freezer has 3 as well. Great to have something to just stuff into the oven on a day where I'm super busy or have a headache

Glad you stocked up! Do not purchase the Tofurky brand one. It is terrible by comparison.

The Whole Foods vegan "roasts" are delicious as well! Comparable price point
