I was there the other day.  didn't have enough time to check out the veg*n section because it was absolutely insane in there!!...BUT, I did notice LOTS of dungeness crabs stuck in tiny tanks with no room to move, along with fish (some dead already, just floating around!).  I can only imagine how the ones in the back are being treated!!

I went to T&T last week. Vaalea asked me to post my observations. I was there only for a limited time, and plan to go back to examine things a bit more thoroughly.

There were many interesting and useful things there, although nothing really stood out. They have a variety of faux meats, but nearly all of those contain egg or dairy products. There's a faux duck and one other that is vegan.  There are several types of Tofutti ice cream products, a few of which I've never seen in other stores. There are tonnes of different sauces, rice noodles etc., a good selection of which are vegan. Lots of interesting tofus and tofu products, although many are available in Chinatown as well.

I didn't have time to check out the produce and I steered clear of the back corner where all the fish tanks are since I find them upsetting.

Also if you plan to use a cart make sure you have a loonie. You have to put one in to get the cart. You get it back when you return the cart.

Hi all :)

I rarely post here but wanted to make a comment.
I live in and grew up in ChinaTown, clearly I will not have to travel out to T&T. But what stuck me was the add on the side of the bus there was an add saying that this new store has all these unique - asian things..and the picture is of 5 vegetables regularly grown in Canada. 

I am not in marketing or anything...but I didn't get it.

Just sayin  :)

Have a great day all :)
