Layonna Vegetarian Health Food Market

The best place to go for vegan mock-meats including

Conveniently located in Downtown Oakland, Layonna Vegetarian Health Food Market is a popular destination for vegans and vegetarians when it comes to faux meats. The compact shop is fully stocked with an inexpensive and eclectic selection of vegan mock meats and other vegetarian food items.

Most people would be amazed by Layonna’s wide range of fake meats, including chicken, pork, beef, and seafood. What’s more impressive about their offering is that the meats come in an array of forms. Here you can find items like “chicken drumsticks”, “beef jerky”, “bacon”, “smoked duck”, “cod fillet”, and “abalone”, all of which can be purchased in bulk or individual packages at prices lower than most chain markets. Whether you are a new vegan transitioning towards a meatless diet or an experienced vegetarian chef who wants to switch it up and keep things fresh, these faux meats, flavored or unseasoned, are great options as they offer interesting textures and flavors rare among vegetables.

Aside from the faux meats collection, Layonna also proudly offers a variety of other vegetarian ingredients, such as dried mushrooms, noodles, tofu, and seaweed, some of which are GMO-free as well. Cooking essentials like sauces, spices, and coconut milk can also be found here. For faux meat novices, you’re welcome to talk to the friendly staff about tips and tricks on cooking meatless meats.
