I definitely prefer vegan to plant-based. Plant-based doesnât translate into Persian either. I like Dillon from Well Your World who doesnât use the term âwfpb whole food plant basedâ he calls it the âwhole plant food only dietâ
The language barrier is partly why I prefer vegan too. My second language is Spanish, I am planning on living in a Spanish-speaking country and the most commonly used translation for âplant basedâ that I am aware of is âde origen vegetalâ which is more of a food label than a personal one. Itâs easier to just say âveganaâ lol.
