do vegans eat peanut butter & jelly sandwitches?

Question

just wondering

Answer 1

Some breads contain eggs, butter, milk, and/or buttermilk, etc.. You need to use vegan bread which doesn't contain any of those ingredients.

Answer 2

As long as the peanut butter and jelly don't have any animal based ingredients in them - why not? (I personally love peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, and I'm vegan.)

Answer 3

Of course, I eat them all the time! Most jelly is made with corn syrup instead of sugar and if the peanut butter comes from the midwest then the sugar (if there is added sugar) is most likely vegan.

Answer 4

Peanut butter doesn't really have butter in it. It's just peanuts and salt, usually. I eat toast and nut butter almost every morning. Almond butter is my favorite. Cashew and macadamia butters are good, too. Jelly rarely has gelatin in it. It's usually just fruit, sugar, and pectin. I usually buy jam, though - it spreads easier than jelly. As for bread, I have heard people say that a lot of bread has mono and triglycerides, but I've checked lables carefully and the breads I normally buy have just a few ingredients and they're all vegan-safe (MIlton's bread is the best!).

Answer 5

Yes but you have to buy special bread that does not have any dairy or honey in it (or eggs). Also the peanut butter and jam (or jelly) have to be specially made because many vegans will not eat sugar because of how it is processed.

Answer 6

Of course, why not? peanut butter is made with peanuts. and oil. and jam is usually made with fruit. Not any of these two things contain any animal parts or fats. so yes. they eat those type off things. but the bread has to be made with out eggs or milk or any animal biproducts. no butter from cows. in other words. no eggs, no milk no dairy products.no meat. nothing that has a face is eaten by vegan's..

Answer 7

Well, much Jelly ( jam or preserve in the UK ) in the US has geletin in it.

Its used to accelerate the setting of fruits.

In our inspections and dealing with manufactures for our guest house, i would say 50% of Jelly's have geletine in them. It can often be excluded from the ingredients list because its a process ingredient so the manufacturers claim its a trace ingredient.

You'd need to either go with the "suitable for veggies" label or be sure you've heard it from the manufacturer.

bread is generally made with dairy milk - about 150ml per loaf

Answer 8

vegans don't eat any animal bi-product like meats, poultry, fish, dairy, etc.
You should be able to eat peanut butter and jelly. That is not from any animal.

Answer 9

Vegans in general can eat them, as long as they don't have animal products like gelatin in, but I choose not to because peanut butter's foul!

Answer 10

My aunt is vegan and she eats jelly and peanut butter and bread but I haven't seen her eat it together.
