Answer 1

If you plan on becoming vegan, there are some things that you should know.

If you search online for a list of animal derived ingredients on Yahoo or Google, there are at least a couple of pages that are sure to come up but veganism is not about religiously studying an endless list of ingredients. If you start reading the ingredients on everything you buy, you're sure to see if it contains milk or egg ingredients.

The goal of veganism is to contribute to as little suffering as possible and eventually reduce what suffering there is. You are more than welcome to memorize that long list of ingredients as I have done but your extra efforts have little effect on the world we live in.

If you are not taking a B12 supplement regularly, you should be. Most people eat meat, dairy AND fortified cereals yet still have a B12 status that is lower than recommended. Vegan sources are available since B12 is made by bacteria, not animals.

Bread, pasta, cereal, rice, beans, peas, lentils, nuts, seeds, fruits and veggies can easily provide everything else.

Answer 4

Vegan goes further than food....it also means you use no products taken from animals (leather, suede, bone, hide, skin, gelatin) Many mundane food products have some sort of animal product in them....the safest way to be vegan is to shop at a health food store, buy products that are labeled as vegan, eat whole grains, beans for protein, soy products etc. Broth or consomme is still considered meat, most any kind of yougart, except soy....There are some good vegan magazines devoted to enlightening those who are interested....usually have to go to one of the larger book stores, borders, barnes and noble to find them....also check your library for books on vegan....again, there is much more to it then the food...

Answer 8

The Vegan Society, the Vegetarian Resource Group, and the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, among others, recommend that vegans either consistently eat foods fortified with B-12 or take a daily or weekly B-12 supplement. Fortified breakfast cereals are a particularly valuable source of vitamin B-12 for vegetarians and vegans.

for example

1-milk

2-egg

3-meat
