It might seem like many of the mainstream branded foods available in UK supermarkets are unsuitable for vegans, but a surprising number of everyday food products are ‘accidentally vegan’. You’ve probably avoided these products in the past, but you might be shocked to learn that all of these products are vegan friendly… (although some may contain palm oil which some vegans avoid for ethical reasons).
Please not that many manufacturers often change the ingredients used in their products, and non-brand versions of these products may not be vegan, so please double check the label before purchasing.
