What is the Total Vegan trend?

Total Vegan: More and more consumers are going vegan and to meet the needs of this new lifestyle are products and services that are completely vegan. These innovations span industries and are also becoming more mainstream in availability -- vegan-friendly Subway restaurants, for example -- so that consumers don't have to venture too far to find what they're looking for or limit their consumption in order to stay within the constraints of veganism.
