And I find that vegans who purity test and gatekeep others are insufferable asses, who have a much deeper impact on why people hate vegans.
I bet it never even crossed your mind that some people with allergies and other medical conditions that mean they’re avoiding certain ingredients use a vegan label for convenience (since it’s easier to scan a “may contain” list, if there even is one, than an entire ingredients list with all its often ambiguous ingredient names), rather than ethics, nor can you explain how someone preferring to avoid cross contamination for whatever reason affects literally anyone but them…
I was not making a purity test, just stating my opinion on a worrying trend of vegans making actual purity tests by decreeing cross contamination as something all vegans should care about.
Making food more easily accesible to people with allergies is a worthwhile goal, but it has nothing to do with veganism.

Things that may contain traces of milk, egg etc can still have the EU vegan label.
