FAQ


Should vegans eat accidentally vegan foods?

It's up to the individual vegan to decide what they're comfortable with. Some vegans may opt not to consume any product that contains a 'may contain' warning label, while others are more relaxed about it.


What is Accidentally Vegan Food?

Accidentally vegan food is not necessarily made intentionally for vegans by the brand. In many cases, there are products that are vegan even though the brand does not always advertise them as such.

This can come as a surprise to people who follow a vegan lifestyle, but it turns out that these products become known throughout the vegan community through word of mouth or forums like Reddit.

 Although accidentally vegan food can be convenient in some cases, it is important to note that these foods should be used carefully as they have likely been manufactured in factories that also handle non-vegan ingredients, and there is always a risk of cross contamination taking place.

Here are some examples of accidentally vegan foods: 

  • Oreos 
  • Mcdonalds Hash Browns 
  • Foxes Party Rings 
  • Mcdonalds Apple Pie 
  • Krispy Kreme Ring Donut


Why should you buy vegan products over non-vegan products:


Buying vegan products is a great way to help create a more sustainable, cruelty-free future. Animal products often have an environmental cost associated with them, from the resources required to produce meat and dairy to the water pollution caused by animal waste.

 Switching to vegan products also stops money from going into industries that harm animals in order for food items to be produced.

Vegan products are often healthier than their non-vegan counterparts, as well as being free of animal suffering. Additionally, vegan products are often allergen friendly, 

since they do not contain any animal-derived ingredients.
All of these factors make vegan products more sustainable and ethical than their non-vegan counterparts.


What UK supermarket is best for vegans?

The UK has a wide variety of vegan-friendly supermarkets, with each offering various products to suit different dietary needs. Some of the most popular vegan-friendly supermarkets in the UK include Tesco, Sainsbury's, Waitrose, Asda and Co-Op Food

While some stores may have fewer vegan options than others, all of them will offer some vegan products.


Finding Vegan Products In Supermarkets:

Unfortunately it can often be difficult to find vegan products in a supermarket due to the fact that they are not always kept in one section or clearly labeled.

It's important to read labels carefully and look out for ingredients such as eggs, dairy, honey, whey protein and gelatin. We recommend that you look for the vegan label on products or contact the company directly if you are unsure.

Additionally, many stores (particularly health food stores) have dedicated vegan sections so it's worth checking those out as well.



Keep in mind that while there are a lot of accidentally vegan foods available, it's important to ensure that you're eating a balanced and nutritious diet. Be sure to include plenty of fresh fruits, vegetables, legumes and grains in your meals for optimal health. Happy eating

Are Health Store Vegan Products more expensive than Supermarket Vegan Products?

It is perfectly normal to find vegan products at a lower price in supermarkets compared to health stores. While health stores often have a wider range of vegan options, they typically come with a higher price tag due to the fact that they source their products from small, independent producers.

 Supermarkets, on the other hand, tend to stock products from larger companies and as such are able to offer them at a lower price.

Ultimately, it depends on your budget and where you feel comfortable shopping. If you're looking for the most cost-effective option then supermarkets may be the way to go, but if you'd like to support smaller businesses then health stores might be the better choice.




There are many vegan foods that are accidentally vegan in the UK, from snacks to desserts, sauces to crackers as well as donuts and frozen food. With so many tasty options available, it's easy to make delicious vegan meals without having to worry about what ingredients you're using.
Whether you’re looking for dairy-free ice cream, vegan crackers or accidentally vegan donuts, there are plenty of options to choose from. With a little bit of research and creativity, anyone can create delicious and nutritious vegan meals that taste great!
