Vegans who eat honey draw the line at suffering, not use. Their case is serious, and it still fails at the hive, where beekeeping means managing the colony.
Should vegans eat lab-grown meat? The animal is still in the process

About us
We’re Gregory and Tara, husband and wife, and we’ve both been vegan since April 2012. Gregory started out a sceptic who thought you needed meat and dairy, so he read the studies until he was sure; he still does, and he runs the tech side. Tara cooks, invents new dishes and has tried more vegan beauty products than our bathroom shelf can hold.
For about two years we also ran a small vegan online shop, so we know the aisle from both sides. Vegan Pots is where we answer the questions we had back then: is it vegan, is it worth buying, and what do you do with it at home.
