    Hi. I'm from Norway, but I'm going to Memphis/TN in august 2007. I'm just wondering if anyone know where to shop, eat and buy food in this aera if you're an enviromental friendly vegan like me?

    I guess that they don't sell the same vegetarian products in the US as they do in Norway, so do you got any tips (wich products and brands I should buy, etc.)?

    I'd been grateful for some answears;)
