Vegans: Can you eat pasta?!


Question: Because from what I remember of cooking classes, pasta is preliminarily just wheat, water and egg. Are there special egg-free varieties we can eat?

Most dry pasta available in the grocery stores is just semolina flour and water. Of course, egg noodles have egg, and some fresh varieties do too. But it's not hard to find egg-free pasta.

Some pastas are egg free. Just a label check, but there are quite a few pastas that are egg free. Dry pastas tend to be more likely to be vegan than fresh pastas. There are plenty of vegan pastas, just check labels.

yea we can, just have to make sure there is no milk or eggs in it. Or added butter.

i think so i think there is such thing as vegetarian pasta?

I'm not a vegan but I eat rice pasta-made from brown rice. It's tastey!

Most store-bought pasta is vegan. It's the fresh varieties that typically contain egg.

As any vegan will tell ya, read the label.

Most conventional dried pasta is vegan. Read ingredients and buy the vegan versions.

check the packet but there are a number of egg free pastas

Yeah. I just make my own whole wheat pasta. You can also buy it in grocery stores, super-walmarts, health food stores etc. There's a lot of egg-free white pasta out there too but I don't eat any type of white flour because it doesn't have adequate fiber. But that's not an ethical issue. It's a personal one.
