Economist calculates the cost of a vegan diet: from 1,100 to 2,900 rubles per week
Ahead of World Vegan Day, Candidate of Economic Sciences Mikhail Khachaturyan, commissioned by Life.ru, compared three versions of a weekly food basket. A basic plant-based diet turned out cheaper than a mixed one (1,100–1,400 versus 1,700–2,200 rubles), but ready-made plant-based meat and milk substitutes raise the cost to 2,200–2,900 rubles per week.
