Most Quorn products are not vegan

But many are (and they are the ones we buy of course).


Just happend to grab a Sainsbury's delivery slot this morning(*). Of
the 47 Quorn products they have available just 8 are vegan.

... and the vegan ones aren't particulary nice,


We just don't see animals as food or a product to be exploited.


Niether do I, haven't eaten dead animal for 27 years, but if it came
down to me or a chicken in the yard, sorry chicken you're on my plate
by my direct actions. I know I can kill 'cause I've done it, either
to put an injured creature from mouse to adult rabbit out of it's
misery having lost an agrument with cat or car. Or and probably more
relevant as there is was element of being "humane", literally
squashed the living breath out of a juvenile rat with a jar at the
back of a kitchen cupboard.

When we first started buying Sainsbury's 'white label' instead of
Heinz baked beans (because they were vastly cheaper and we wanted to
experiment with price / taste / function) we noticed they were
different.


Well that's hardly surprising Heinz are well known for loading their
beans with sugar. There is a difference betwwen "different" and "not
nice".
