Is alcohol tested on animals?

Question

I've heard they test alcohol on animals. If so, does this classify alcohol as not being vegan?

Answer 1

No, they test alcohol on people. There are human tasters that taste every batch to make sure it meats the companies specs. Getting payed to drink sounds like a good job doesn't it? :-P

Answer 2

Alcohol is tested on animals. Thats why your dog acts drunk all the time..LOL

Answer 3

Dude if I was a Vegan, Alcohol would not be on my list of thangs to avoid. Steak neither. Or hot dogs. Sausage,pork chops, or any kind of potted meat product. I would avoid tofu, bean sprouts,and soy milk. Dang Californians. Gonna declare Chicken as an endangered species. Yep if it is anywhere around my plate it is definately in danger!

Answer 4

What kind of alcohol?  There are hundreds of different types and many ways to make it.

Answer 5

It depends on the kind of alcohol. A lot of wines use sturgen(spelling?) aka fish bladders as a clarifyer in their wines. Im not sure which ones so I just stear clear of wine in general. As far as beer goes, I don't think they use any animal ingredients but Im not 100% sure. Look up vegan alcohol and Im sure you'll get the answer your looking for.

EDIT: OOOOOOhhhhhhh is it tested on animals. Sorry misread the question. No, alcohol is not tested on animals. They have professional tasters for that, yes there is such a thing as a professional taster.

Answer 6

If it is tested on animals, we must stop this.

(as long as it's vegetarian)
