Honey is not vegan.
But it would be helpful to the vegan movement if we stopped acting so "holier than thou", pretending to a purity that is almost impossible for anyone to attain.

This is without doubt the weirdest question I have ever come across on this forum... I like it!
Of course I would eat it... not the monkey, that is, but the sandwich, yes ;)
as for musicians becoming politicians, wouldn't john butler make a great environment minister...! I'll ask him tomorrow when I see him at Phillip Island.
:)
Peter, if you're reading this, there's still time to redeem yourself...
Because our so-called "environment" minister (Peter Garrett) is spineless... not that Stephen Smith is much better. I wish the government would show some guts for a change! Most Australians would...
Will do!
That's truly horrifying, treehugga! Where are they producing it, and where are they selling it? I often go to markets around Melbourne - maybe we can organise a protest somewhere...
...
Whether we need this much of that, or that much of this, the subject of nutrition is very debatable.
Listen to your own body, it usually knows best.
As for salt, you might be interested that...
glad I'm not the only apple addict out there!
Being pretty lazy about food myself, i tend to live on very simple things: oatmeal and an apple for brekky, pita bread with avocado for lunch. Processed vegan food, like tofu and vegesausages are...
Hey there snufkin,
Not sure what kind of hiking you're into... but keep in mind that you may not need boots specifically marketed as "mountain gear" - after all, it's just a label. All the boots...
Australians are quick to criticise the Japanese for whaling, but happy enough to butcher kangaroos. And then there's the live export trade. Talk about hypocrisy. :mad:
If anyone would like to help out the orangutans endangered by palm oil plantations, you can actually "adopt" an orphan through the Australian Orangutan Project for $55. The money goes directly...
I could just about live on apples - I definitely couldn't survive without them! Crunchola is pretty good too, especially the apple flavour...
Enough of mangoes already! You're all making me hungry... :)

I think it was...
Spirulina is the most disgusting thing I have ever tried to force down my throat... but I'm sure it's very healthy ;)
I recently wrote to the government about duck hunting, and suggested that ducks demonstrate considerably more intelligence than the sadistic idiots with guns who shoot them for fun, and the...
It would be encouraging to see the Aussie Defence Force waging a just war for a change...
Whoa Korn, I'm not sure if I understood even 1 per cent of what you wrote but I appreciate the depth of your knowledge about this subject!
So, although B12 can play an important role, it may not...
I heard a guy on the radio last night saying that the yeast used to make beer contains a whole lot of vitamins and nutrients, including B12. He likened it to the yeast in Marmite.
Naturally, if...
You're so right Camyle - people always seem surprised when I say I'm vegan, and tell me that vegans are supposed to look undernourished. To be honest, I did go through a phase when I was seriously...
And by the way, I wasn't sure which team you meant? :confused:
Australian football is commonly known to be the national religion, especially here in Melbourne. The Geelong Cats won this year,...
Nice to see someone with faith in human potential. There truly are some inspirational individuals who do incredible good in this world.
Playing the devil's advocate is really worthwhile, it's...
Sorry for the acronym kevin2, CBD is "central business district", maybe that's Aussie jargon - I guess it kind of equates to "downtown" in American. Noise, smog, high rise buildings, too much...
Wildlife shelters for rescued animals are great - there's a beautiful story I read recently from World Society for Protection of Animals about the successful rehabilitation and release of some black...
Hey there! I'm from Melbourne, moving to NZ in December and wondering if anyone had any thoughts on life in Wellington v life in Auckland. Which are the nice areas to look for a place to live? Can't...
Hey Jasmine tea, welcome to beautiful Melbourne! If you're northside of the river, these are great places for organic and vegan-friendly things.
ORGANIC WHOLEFOODS: 277 Smith St, Collingwood 3065...
My boots are from Vegan Wares in Melbourne (and online), they are the most comfortable and handsome pair o' boots I've ever had in my life. Definitely worth every penny and the people are really...
The funny thing is, I need willpower to cook... I eat mostly fruit and the occasional piece of toast with tahini because it's easier, and that's all I usually feel like. I have vegies maybe 3-4 times...
Sour milk and rotting flesh sure do make a person smell horrible. I don't have an issue with garlic breath (I kind of like it, weirdly) but milk breath especially is a complete turn-off. Twice in my...
But hey Jamie, welcome down under! Let us know if you're coming to Melbourne. At the risk of sounding parochial, we're way more cool than Queenslanders. Just kidding... It's probably not so bad up...
This is why I have my toast with jam!
I think Peter Singer has some useful ideas, and his heart is in the right place. It's interesting that he doesn't call himself an animal rights advocate in the true sense - from a philosophical...
Personally I don't much like any soy products (and tried many kinds), but there's a widespread assumption amongst omnis that because I'm vego therefore I live on tofu. If people actually like the...
We have so much more in common with America than we like to admit, including wilful ignorance. It's really disheartening that Aussies don't show more interest in social and political issues...
You're right, eve, it's definitely hard to pin down what it means to be Australian. I hope nobody suggests we all eat 4n20 pies! But seriously, whether or not the test is a good or bad idea depends...
