“It wasn’t that hard to become vegan for me. The only thing that was a little confusing was recognising animal ingredients that I never knew about before, such as gelatin or casein [milk protein]. Once you get familiar with that it’s simple. No dairy, eggs and those sneaky ingredients were the only differences between vegetarian and vegan.”
—-musician John Feldmann, singer and guitarist for the band, Goldfinger, during an interview.
Ingredients can be a pain in the butt sometimes. We all know that chicken broth doesn’t make rice vegetarian and egg whites don’t make bread vegan, but L-cysteine in your pita pocket? Monoglycerides? Don’t even get us started on sugar-who would’ve thought it gets white via processing with animal bone ash-yuck!
Luckily, there’s a list to help us sort through all that. Bring a copy of it with you at your next grocery store visit.
