A vegan and non-vegan food list for ethical consumers to know what to buy and what animal-derived ingredients to avoid.

Choose a vegan diet rather than non vegan foods that kill and exploit animals. Over 150 million land animals are killed for food around the world every day. That’s 56 billion land animals killed every year! When including fish (both wild caught and farmed) a total of approximately 3 billion animals are killed every single day.
