Imagine not caring about the lives of yeast. Humans can be so heartless.
I prefer the nomenclature ‘uncultured’ thanks.
You seem like a fungi
well, ackshually - The fishy ingredient in beer that bothers vegetarians - BBC
Well, ackshually akshually - drink German beer. With very few exceptions, it’s only allowed to contain barley, hops, yeast and water. That law has existed in some form for over 500 years.
A German guy once told me that the original penalty for violating that law was that the brewer was to be drowned in his own beer - to be fair, he was quite drunk at the time, so it might be complete bullshit.
That only applies to beer breweries in Bavaria. Not all of Germany is subject to that law.
Not true, you are not allowed to call it beer then
Traditional Worchestershire sauce also contains fish.
All Worcestershire sauce. It’s fermented anchovy sauce with some spices.
Anything that doesn’t have the anchovy, isn’t Worcestershire sauce.
You can have anchovy free Worcestershire sauces. It’s actually a generic term for a class of fermented sauces, many have anchovies, but it is not a requirement
Plenty of vegan Worcestershire sauces available, just like there’s vegan cheese and butter and milk and sausages and burgers and nuggets…
You being a pedant/snob/militant carnivore/whatever isn’t going to stop people making vegan versions of things and calling them the thing. Because there’s no reason not to other than the hurt fee fees of people like you.
Why are vegans obsessed with making cheap knockoff versions of nonvegan food? Cant they make their own foods?
most food is “vegan food”. have you ever had a potato?
Wine may be filtered using animal tissue, but many wines are vegan
Some beer has honey and milk ingredients
No they aren’t, unless specified. A lot is isinglass (spelling?) To clarify it, which is fish parts.
Isinglass is not used very much outside breweries trying to do really traditional British styles, because it’s finicky and there are better and cheaper options. I’d say that the most common thing making beer non-vegan is adding adjuncts like lactose in milk stouts.
Vegan things:
Bread, potatos, noodles, water, air all vegetables, all fruits, 70+% of the average diet.
Vegan is not hard
Not all bread and noodles are vegan, or even vegetarian.
True. Most of them though.
Dry pasta is. Any other noodle will not be. Eggs are used in a lot of places.
There’s also dry pasta with eggs.
Usually sold as egg noodles, yes.
Most Italian died pasta is going to be made with just flour and water, but again, there are exceptions.
Exceptions that contain egg?
That’s the most common, but there are weird pasta types out there made with beans or cauliflower or such…
The majority of those are vegan by design, but I’ve seen a few that were just gluten-free, and still used egg as a binder.
Most non-dairy drinks can be vegan. Why do beer and wine in particular surprise you?
I told a friend of mine I was making Mead and she told me that is not interested because Mead is not vegan. I really forgot that she was vegan and then I started thinking “People usually make fun of vegan food, but beer and wine can be considered vegan (with the exception people has already pointed out) and those are fun drink”
Oreo cookies are technically vegan.
As people have mentioned the seafood, ill also add that many wines use egg.
Wine is not vegan. Wine uses sulphites which are made from crustaceans.
not all wine
All wines matter!
