I have wondered: is there anyone out there who can really be a pure, 100% vegan? I somehow think not. I mean, I've often read the definition of vegan as involving not eating/using animal products in any form (food, clothing, etc). So what if your best friend drove a car with leather seats and picked you up to take you to the airport? Would you argue that you refuse to ride in it because of this issue? I've read lots of medicine capsules (the gelcaps) ingredients including gelatin. Unfortunately, most of the standard athletic and office shoes I've seen are made with leather.
If your family member/friend gave you something that is animal-based, what would you do with it?
Lets say your boss wants to share her cake with everyone in the office...wouldn't he or she be offended if you didn't take at least a tiny piece?
In any case, lets face it, in order to be a 100% vegan, I would think one would have to research extensively on every product out there. Who has the time for that?
