Why can vegans eat yeast bread?!
Answers: I understand the vegan diet avoids meat and dairy, and even honey. Why is bread (yeast) allowed? I would think that eating yeast as a living organism would be more of a violation of the tenets of the diet than eating something like honey. Can somebody explain this?
Good question! I see one reply that says they are one celled animals and belong to another class. Wonder how many cells is the cut off point? What about vaccines, golly my mind is hurting, got to stop!
No I cant, but I like the question!
No, I can't but I do think it's alittle silly that they don't eat honey (if that is true). Do they breast feed?
Its ridiculous to even ask this question. You need a better hobby.
Yeast is not animal. One celled creatures belong to a different class.
Vegans can eat yeast because it is fungi.
get to the point who cares at all
i have no idea if it would! But I love your point!!
well vegetables are living and vegans eat them.
vegans basically dont eat anything that is a product of animals or that has a heartbeat. [im not sure if some seafood has heartbeats, but they still dont eat that]
You don't have to kill in order to obtain yeast.
Scientists classify yeasts as fungi (like mushrooms), so there's no problem with it from a vegan point of view.
Me and my son were harassed by one of these nuts in a restaurant while eating our steaks. She says loudly "do you know a cow had to die so you can have that steak"? I replied louder "Yeah, she died of starvation because you ate all her food".
Microbes are not considered meat.
Yeast does not have a central nervous system, and thus does not feel pain. Vegans do not eat animals and yeast is not an animal.
Yeast isn't an animal. It's a single-celled organism most similar to a plant.
Yeast is classified as a fungus
The animal classification was adandoned in the 1970's after 50 years of research.
Very recent in biological research terms, but still quick clear non the less.
a lot of vegan still eat bread coz most only dont eat any ANIMAL products i no im ok with eating yeast. but i do no some vegans that wont eat yeast because its a bacteria or something that alive. btu i doesnt feel in the same way that animals and humans do which i why i dont mind it.
Well, it's all a moot point if the vegans in question don't sterilize everything they eat. Even if they do, thousands of protozoans (one-celled animals) are being ingested and killed in the process, along with microscopic worms, eggs and larvae of all sorts, and tiny crustaceans and mollusks...Ewwww! Thus while they might THINK they are vegans, they are most likely not.
Yeast is classified as a fungus, and there is ample reason enough NOT to eat yeast. It is unpredictable, at best, and it is linked with all manner of suspicious diseases, such as Crohn's disease, colitis, gastritis...etc. While yeast is not animal, and technically vegans can eat it, that doesn't necessarily make it a good idea.
Now, if they drive a Vega, or if they live in or near Las Vegas, then that's another story entirely! I always did wonder about the vegan's motives for wanting to be vegans.
Yeast is a fungus. ALL plants are living organisms so, unless your diet consists of rocks, the only way to eat something is to eat something that is alive (even honey has bacteria in it). Vegans choose not to eat anything that involves the killing of ANIMALS (as in, anything that has a face), or anything that involves the USE of animals (that includes eggs, dairy, and honey - which is made by bees held in captivity [of sorts]).
For the record, I am not a vegan.
Are you planning on becoming vegan (meaning you actually care) or are you just trying to "catch" us (meaning you need a life)?
p.s. I also eat nutritional yeast. OH NOES!!1
They don′t eat anything with a face
