Answer 1

It is actually better to stick with foods that have few or only one ingredient.  The more ingredients something has the worse it is for you.

There are lists of animal ingredients, but you would never be able to memorize it.  Here it is:

Animal Ingredient List A-Z

    Vegans and vegetarians alike are often unaware that products they like may contain animal ingredients and/or by-products of animals such as the ones contained in the following list.

    Note: We have been informed that some of the compounds listed below, while could be obtained from animal products, haven't been obtained from animals for many years due to the fact that they are readily industrially synthesized and cheaper to get than to go through the process of obtaining them from animal products.
