Just because it looks like vegetables & says it’s vegetables, doesn’t mean it’s only vegetables.
Some non-vegan things are easy to spot. Chicken? Easy. Cheese crackers? Got it. Butter-coated Brussels sprouts? Sure.
Others like to hide their non-veganness in the shadows, like ninjas. Sometimes it’s vegan, sometimes it’s not. Like these 6 things:
1. Arnold Double Fiber Bread
Culprit? Whey & nonfat milk.
2. Barilla Pasta Plus
Culprit? Egg whites.
3. Progresso Light Savory Vegetable Barley Soup
Culprit? Cooked beef. Yeah, not even vegetarian.
4. Morningstar Farms Spicy Black Bean Burger
Culprit? Egg whites & calcium caseinate
5. Green Giant Healthy Weight Frozen Veggies
Culprit? Enzyme-enhanced butter. Scary.
6. Beer
Culprit? Filtering process {can use animal products like gelatin or bone char} or ingredients, like honey.
