    you should see the list of things that are made from dead cows...

    supposedly they're processed enough that they aren't considered "non-vegan" anymore but to me that's BS cos they still came from ... dead cows...

    http://discovermagazine.com/2001/aug/featcow

    At the bottom is a list of what cows go into...

    i.e.

    Plywood adhesives, fertilizer, foam fire extinguisher, chemical fixer for dyes synthetic motor oil, Solvent, sweetener, dynamite, cosmetics, liquid soaps, candy, liqueurs, inks, lubricants, antifreeze mixtures, culture nutrients for antibiotics

    and that's just a few items from the list

    just think... how many times do we use soap, synthetic motor oil, makeup...

    all on the backs of cows.

    not that i personally care however cos... well i eat cows anyway so why not use the whole animal.

    i just don't believe in fooling ourselves about where these other supposedly non-animal products are REALLY coming from

      I couldn't agree with you more. If someone says they are a vegetarian, they have to take the responsibility for finding out whether animal products are in their food. Sweets/candy, bread, cheese, medicines, and alcohol are the areas many people don't even consider as containing animal products.

      Antifreeze and dynamite were new ones to me! Not anything for me to worry about as I don't drive and don't blow things up, but I think it highlights the problem particularly well.
