Are yves products vegan?!


Question: I know they are vegetarian, but are they vegan? They often have a warning on their package saying that they are made in a factory that also manufacture milk and egg products, etc. if I'm striving for strict veganism, should i eat this brand?

Yes, Yves products are vegan. The thing with "shared equipment" or "a factory that also manufactures" is that many vegan companies have to share factories and/or equipment in order to bring you their products. If you're only going to patronize companies that keep exclusively vegan equipment, you're withdrawing your support for worthwhile companies and ultimately making it harder to find vegan products on the market.

I have eaten Yves products before and absolutely love them. They are strictly soy products, however, I would suggest looking at the Yves website and maybe contacting them. I believe they are vegan. They will let you know.

I don't know if all the Yves products are vegan, but these are vegan according to PETA:

Yves Original Jumbo Dog
Yves Veggie Cuisine—Veggie Breakfast Links
Yves Veggie—Canadian Veggie Bacon
Yves Veggie Cuisine—Hot ’n’ Spicy Veggie Chili Dogs
Yves Veggie Cuisine—Veggie Chick’n Burgers
Yves Veggie Cuisine—Veggie Turkey Slices

Don't worry if a vegan product says it was manufactured on the same equipment as non-vegan products. This info is just for people with allergies. No animals are going to suffer if your product touches machinery with traces of dairy/eggs on it.

Don't ask Peta. They are nothing but big liars!

Yes, all vegan.
Even their Lasagna is vegan.
I love their products -- great stuff, but WAY out of my budget. I think I'd have to be earning a lot more money to be able to afford that stuff -- so I just use it once in a while, about as often as I use ice-cream and for the same reason, special treat.

I think they have these kabob-type things that aren't vegan, but most of their stuff is.

yves are soy by products and not the healthiest thing for you, too processed, things are generally only vegan if they say so

Read the ingredients.
