Is it difficult to be vegan in Doha?

Hi I'm considering moving to Doha and have been vegan for 4 years. I'm wondering how difficult it is to find vegan food products - things like soy milk, tofu, nutritional yeast...

Any vegans in Doha have any insight?

Thanks!

You wouldnt have a problem being vegan in Doha, besides lacking the Daiya cheese that i love so much. Check out some indian restaurants around!

Great! Thanks cherukkan and marycatherine. Good to know I'll be in good company and won't starve!

PollyJ there are lots of great reasons to be vegan: animal rights, health, lower environmental impact and peace of mind to name a few.

I feel much healthier since becoming vegan. I have more energy, I don't get as tired after eating meals, I lost weight and I'm happier knowing my actions are inline with my thoughts and ethics.

Of course, everyone is different and for some people (like Boer) its harder to give up the things they've always loved. For me it was a great choice and I've never looked back.

Give it a go! I promise it's not as hard as you think!

There are a lot of vegans here, mainly from the subcontinent. I don't know about the yeast in particular but the rest is available anywhere.

Soy milk and tofu are available in all major supermarkets but I am not sure about the yeast.
