    I do that daily. Take bread. Eggs, milk, butter, yeast go in it. Well, we could argue about whether yeast is an animal product

    Obviously not a vegan, eh. Yeast is a Fungi. This post was edited by Element 99 at October 20, 2017 6:56 AM MDT

  • I know a strict vegan who would induce vomiting if she discovered her mistake soon enough.
    Generally she has an acute sense of smell and would notice something like poultry, seafood or meat stock in food. Yet she tends not to trust even her nose.
    She very rarely eats anything unless she's cooked it herself, trusts the cook, or has watched the preparation.

    Other vegans I know don't freak out, but do avoid that source of food afterwards.

    Im not a vegan by choice, I just dont like meat. If I found out there was meat in something I was eating, I would probably keep eating it if it tasted good. Chances are, it would not taste good to me, thats why I dont eat meat.

    Are oysters an animal?  I eat them all the time to see if it helps.

    Oh.. I thought you said 'viagrans.
