Tivoni - טִבְעוֹנִי

Pronunciation: Ti·vo·ni

Literal translation: Vegan

Many Israelis have become tivoni over the years, as veganism has become wildly popular in our small country. Foods and restaurants receive a special "Vegan-friendly" badge, and there is even a movement that represents vegan soldiers in the IDF, making sure they're treated properly.

According to estimates, around 5% of Israelis are vegan, and Tel Aviv is considered the Vegan Capital of the world!
