Vegetarianism and veganism are on the rise in the United States. In fact, 7.3 million people in the U.S. follow a vegetarian-based diet with about 1 million people being strictly vegan. Many individuals have decided to make the switch due to personal beliefs. Others have found that going vegan can actually help save money. That being said, another great way to save money is by shopping at Costco. So, what Costco vegan food products are available to members who prefer a plant-based diet?
