The Simply Vegan podcast is your weekly dose of plant-based food, news and topical chat with Vegan Food & Living's Holly Johnson and Molly Pickering.

In today's episode, we catch up on Molly's birthday bonanza, which involved a whole lot of vegan tapas and Holly discusses heart health and vegan options in the NHS following a family emergency at the weekend. We also touch on the news that vegan Müller Corners have launched in the UK, and how we feel about supporting a dairy giant along with other meat-based brands, before we chat about the 'slowing' of the vegan market.

Of course, no episode would be complete without discussing the climate crisis that's upon us, with wild fires raging in Greece and the hottest summer temperatures on record. Is it time we encouraged more of our friends and family to ditch meat?
