Veggie-centric restaurants are becoming more popular such as Ladybird in New York that offers a vegetable charcuterie plate with smoked carrot, cured beet, mushroom pate and beet chorizo. There’s also Nix in New York with both vegetarian and vegan menus. Veggies are even displacing conventional comfort foods like lasagna and macaroni and cheese. Comfort food searches including the word “veggies” on Pinterest jumped 336 percent in the last year.
