Relevant: true Importance: 6 Notes:

• A Reddit post under r/Veganism asks whether it’s ethical to buy vegan products from companies that also produce non-vegan products, such as Doritos that are vegan but also produce non-vegan chips.
• A commenter expresses the view that it’s difficult to find vegan products that are not owned by companies that also produce non-vegan products, but buying vegan products from these companies could help shift them toward a fully plant-based production.
• Another commenter recommends doing what feels right for oneself, but mentions avoiding buying anything from Morrisons in the UK because they operate their own slaughter business. However, this commenter admits they would still buy from there if asked by their spouse.
• One commenter shares a quote from a book called “Beasts of Burden,” which argues that an overemphasis on boycotting the products of particular companies is based on a misunderstanding of the nature of capitalism and that as long as capitalism exists, it will reproduce itself regardless of the fate of any particular company.
• Another commenter agrees with the above sentiment and argues that there are no ethical-consumer safe-havens in a capitalist system, and contorting oneself in an effort to achieve ethical capitalist consumption leaves open the criticism that vegans only care about non-human animals.
• This commenter suggests that a vegan lifestyle is about disrupting and abolishing the current system rather than just abstaining from consuming animal products. The commenter argues that veganism is a movement to transform the world, and boycotting products from specific companies can give the impression that it can be cleaned up and made to work for us if we get rid of “bad actors.”
• Another commenter suggests that it’s up to each individual to decide, but sometimes purchasing vegan products from non-vegan companies can send a signal to the company to produce more vegan products and create positive shift.
• Yet another commenter agrees that it’s up to each individual, but argues that supporting businesses to start producing vegan options and encouraging demand for healthier alternatives is important.
• Overall, the comment section provides a range of perspectives on whether it’s ethical to buy vegan products from companies that also produce non-vegan products.

• The discussion is about the increasing number of products labeled “plant-based” that contain non-vegan ingredients and how the term “plant-based” has been used ambiguously.
• The definition of the term “plant-based” varies, and some companies use it loosely to describe their products despite containing animal-derived ingredients.
• Examples of products labeled as “plant-based” but containing non-vegan ingredients include the Burger King plant-based whopper, almost all Quorn products, and plant-based cheeses containing milk protein.
• Linda McCartney’s vegetarian products contain non-vegan ingredients like egg.
• It is important to read ingredient labels carefully to ensure the product is completely vegan.
• A user clarified that the definition of “plant-based” has shifted over time to include anything that consists of plants for at least 51%.
• Some users criticized the abuse of the term “plant-based” for profit and how it has lost its meaning.
• Others pointed out that the term “plant-based” is not legally defined and is frequently used to sidestep advertising laws.
• There is a debate on whether products that are cooked in the same space or grill as animal products should be considered vegan.
• Some sources such as the Vegan Society acknowledge that cross-contamination does not contribute to animal exploitation and thus does not violate the principles of veganism.
• However, others such as the Burger King plant-based whopper are not considered vegan because they are cooked on the same grill as beef burgers and absorb some of their runoff.
• Many sources and users suggest that it is best to define terms like “vegan” and “plant-based” clearly to avoid confusion and watering down the terms.
• A few users suggested that people should know about products that are labeled as “plant-based” but are not completely vegan so that they can make informed choices.
• Some recommended using a vegan alternative instead of the non-vegan ingredient when ordering a product.
• A user in Germany pointed out that Burger King has vegan mayo available upon request but it is not widely available in the United States.
• Some sources suggest that the plant-based trend is not necessarily translating to a higher percentage of people becoming vegan and that some people are just using it as a marketing tool.

• The original poster inquires if the plant-based resin is safe to print indoors without requiring significant ventilation during the winter.

• Another user with three karma points refutes the resin’s eco-friendly and natural claims, stating that while it may contain soybean and other plant-based fillers, the hazardous effects remain the same.
• A user with one karma point recommends using a hood or container to print the resin and to figure out a ventilation method.
• Another user with one karma point suggests using ANYCUBIC Plant-Based Resin as it is less smelly and provides better detail, but still recommends using a ventilator mask and nitrile gloves. They state that there is no such thing as “safe” UV resin.
• One more with one karma point mentions using the plant-based resin indoors but in a separate room, with the use of an inline fan and stacked charcoal filter that filters the air inside the small grow tent.
• A user with one karma point also asks about a fan and filter set that reduces fume issues, and is provided with a link to a specific ventilation kit.
• Another user with one karma point inquires if the fumes still escape from the grow tent, to which a response with one karma point states that the fan and filter set-up eliminates most of the detectable smell.
• Overall, there is no mention of Avon Farm RX or a vegan product line in this discussion post.
