What to do when you accidentally eat animal products
So I was all prepared to talk to you about the special edition Eid doughnut that Krispee Kreme brought out, because it was new and I of course had to try it. It was labelled as accidentally vegan, as it had no milk or eggs in it and when I checked the allergen menu online … Continue reading What to do when you accidentally eat animal products

Should you keep your cat indoors?

Now I will preface this by saying that I am a very nervous pet parent - I think after … Continue reading Should you keep your cat indoors?
Which e-numbers are vegan?
As with all things vegan, there is always something new to learn. Now if you are following a plant based diet then it is likely that you haven't come across e-numbers before. I won't get into a debate (not now anyway) about whether e-numbers are good or bad for you, but I am someone who … Continue reading Which e-numbers are vegan?
