5. Chicago, Illinois
Now, this city may actually come as a surprise to you, but you best believe it! Chicago’s company, Chicago Vegan Foods, is responsible for some of the most popular vegan food alternatives in health food stores across the nation, including Dandy Marshmallows and Teese cheeses. The Midwestern capital also hosts several vegan food fairs, including VeganMania, and has been running the successful vegan-friendly diner (above) for over 20 years.
