Vegetarian budget options in Finland
I am new here and I have some specific questions regarding an upcoming business travel to Finland.
I hail from India and would be put up at Helsinki centre for 4 weeks till mid of April. After reading many articles on Finnish lifestyle, food, history and so on, I have the some queries in my mind which I would like to place before the experienced members here. [EDIT: multiple questions split as suggested in comments]
I am a vegetarian and whatever I have read and heard from colleagues there is not very encouraging. Any pointers for budget vegetarian food would be really helpful.
Basically I am looking for fast food options, groceries to cook (simple cooking using microwave), fresh fruits, milk products which I can consume at low cost and yet maintain a healthy diet for the cold climate. I am looking for lunch and dinner options in weekends and only dinner in weekdays. I wish to keep aside 6-8 euros for a meal.
This would be my first experience outside my country and I want to make the most of it soak in the spirit of Finland.

Is Finland Good for vegetarians?
Finland is probably the last place in the world you'd think of when finding good vegan food. A traditional hunting culture, some of the best fishing lakes in the world, and a long-time love of meat means that veganism hasn't caught on in the country the way it has in the rest of Europe.Is Finland a vegetarian country?
Fish and meat plays a significant role in customary food. However it is not only about non vegetarian food , in the books of Finnish cuisine there is also space for vegetarian dishes . Milk and its derivatives like curd, butter milk are regularly used as food, drink or in many recipes.Ikea food menu in Finland.Cheap \u0026 Vegetarian/Vegan options.#ikeafinland #indianinfinland#suomi
