Eating Vegan at Discovery Cove Orlando

Eating out vegan can be a nightmare.  When my parents became vegan (doctors orders) just running out to celebrate with a nice dinner became a thing of the past.  Now there is research and reading reviews for everything.  They get to look for the tiny V on the menu and then doctor up the meal every more.

So when mom and I decided we wanted to go to Discovery Cove Orlando we spent some serious time researching food.  I wondered about Eating Vegan at Discovery Cove Orlando.  After all, it’s an all-inclusive resort which means we could get as much of everything as we wanted and if we didn’t like it no big deal.  I hope this post helps other Vegans wondering what they can eat!

I have no idea who these people are but she watched me take her picture a bunch of times so I will consider it consent to publish.  This bird, and another one like it, were at all of our meals.  And if you weren’t firm they would just right up on the table and check out your food!
