Navigating Mediterranean Menus as a Pegan Diner

Following a Pegan (Vegan Paleo) diet combines the plant-focused principles of veganism with paleo’s emphasis on whole, unprocessed foods—meaning no dairy, grains, legumes, or processed sugars. While Mediterranean cuisine famously celebrates vegetables and healthy fats, hidden ingredients like yogurt, hummus (chickpeas), pita bread, or sugary sauces can turn ordering into a guessing game.

How mm food Makes Pegan Dining Effortless

With mm food’s AI-powered tools, Pegan diners can confidently navigate any Mediterranean restaurant:

1. Instant Menu Translation: Scan foreign-language menus to see descriptions in your native tongue, ensuring you understand every ingredient.
2. Dietary Filter: Set your Pegan preferences (no dairy, grains, legumes, refined sugars) in the app. Our AI cross-checks dishes against your rules and highlights safe options, like:
   • Grilled fish or lean meats (sustainably sourced, 25% of plate max)
   • Vegetable-centric plates (e.g., roasted eggplant, zucchini, artichokes)
   • Olive oil-based salads (hold the feta and lentils)
   • Nut-based dips (instead of hummus or tzatziki)
3. Custom Alerts: Flag tricky additives like honey-glazed veggies or breadcrumbs in stuffed peppers.

Pro Tips for Pegan Success

• Prioritize grilled seafood/meat + double-vegetable sides
• Request olive oil instead of yogurt-based sauces
• Skip fried foods (often grain-battered)
