Vegan Traveler's Family is travelling.

We took a train to New Orleans, and I have mixed reviews about Amtrak's food. We called before we left to ask about vegan options, but the customer service rep was so confused at why anyone would want to be vegan. She told us Gardenburgers were available on every train, but couldn't tell us if it were the vegan ones.

So we decided to bring our own food, but except for soy milk for my daughter, we didn't eat a lot of it. The waitstaff was so accomodating. We told them about our daughter's milk allergy, and they bent over backwards to check ingredients. At one meal, they made steamed vegetables just for her.

They do have Amy's veggie burgers which are vegan. They micowave them, but hey, it's not dead animals. I do not like soy burgers, but it was ok this once.
