I'm vegan, but there are non-vegans in the family whom I have to buy food for. They get organic meat occasionally but they don't mind eating a lot of veggie meat substitues instead but many of these contain eggs and milk. For sandwhiches, although the family enjoys vegan 'meat' I don't always have it as it's a long journey to the shop where I can get it, so I've been getting Quorn 'meat' for them, which contains eggs and milk. I've been wondering lately what's more against my beliefs. I know nothing died for a bit of quorn, but the eggs and milk in it are presumably battery farmed and so I'm supporting something I don't believe is right (although I don't think enforcing veganism's right either.) Is supporting an organic, free range farm by buying their meat better than supporting battery farms by buying Quorn and other meat substitutes? I already buy organic milk/cheese etc for the non-vegans.
