Why do vegatarians eat bread?!
There are VERY few bred recipes that call for eggs. A lot of them do not call for milk either.
Almost all of them call for some butter.
All bread that rises has yeast in it.
The yeast needs a sugar, whether its white sugar, honey, molasses, applesauce, brown sugar, ect, it does not care.
You take take seeds and sprout them (I usually use wheat). When the sprout is the same length as the seed kernel, spread the sprouts out on a cookie sheet. Dry very gently in the oven.
When totally dry, grind up the dried sprouts to a chunky flour. Add two or three tablespoons of this to your homemade breads. You will be getting scads of untra healthy vitamins, and get a nice nutty flavor in the bread.
I have potato bread baking right now.
If you learn to make your own breads, you can make a VERY healthy food. I would say vegatarians eat bread, because it can be so very healthy for you.

Answers: I live on a permaculture farm. I bake my own bread almost every day. I bake many different types of bread.

Beacause there is no meat in it.
$ )
Maybe it has to do with the fact that bread isn't made out of dead pigs, chickens, or cows.
They only don't eat meats, but i think they eat bread.
I'm a vegetarian. A vegetarian abstains from eating meat but usually consumes dairy products. I eat bread but only certain kinds....some are soooo good!
Ahhh, last time I checked, many breads are made without dairy (i.e. eggs)
Ever try no-knead bread? The best bread out there. Flour, yeast, salt, water. That's it.
Of course, you not knowing that, it does not surprise me. Go back to eating your empty nutrition source, Wonder Bread...
***You make no sense at all kid...What exactly are you trying to say with this remark??? --->
"Yeast is alive. milk no isnt in bread you jack"
Yeast is a fungus.
You must really hate yourself. Cause it sounds like you know absolutely nothing.
vegetarians eat bread because grains are an important part of the diet. And most breads do not contain any animal products.
Many Vegetarians will eat anything as long as no animal had to die.
Most Vegetarians drink milk, those who don't chose not to because of the inhumane way that dairy cows are treated
Same goes for eggs. Most vegetarians eat them, but those who don't, chose not to because of how the hens are treated.
Most eggs were not, nor could they ever have been, a baby chicken. They are unfertilized. Simple biology.. If there was no sperm, there could never hve been a baby chick.
Um, I eat everything but meat? Meat being Bacon, Ham, Turkey, Chicken, Beef, ETC. I do so because I don't believe in eating it. Nothing wrong with milk.
Yeah, kid, listen to Shelly and the others who actually know what's going on.
Most breads have no dairy. I make bread at home. Do I add milk? Cheese? Nope. Even if I did, if cheese has no rennet, it's vegetarian.
Second, how in god's name would an egg be a baby chick? The egg is unfertilized. That chicken hasn't gone anywhere near a rooster. It's just the food that would have fed a baby chick HAD the egg been fertilized. No baby chicks inside.
You're not eating a chicken, the egg hasn't been fertilized. You're eating a chicken's period.
So if you're ok with that... eat bread.
Yeast isn't alive... it's active.
Most vegetarians consume milk, eggs and yeast. Yeast is actually a fungi... it isn't (as far as we know anyway) a living, feeling being and so therefore is ok for vegetarians to eat. All eggs that we commonly buy from supermarkets in the west have never nor will ever be a baby chicken... these eggs are unfertilized. So it's just like eating a human egg before a woman's period... there's no chance it will become a baby unless it's fertilized by sperm. So again, it's ok to eat for vegetarians. Most vegetarians drink milk because a cow hasn't directly died to produce it. Us vegans however appreciate that the cows still suffer and will be killed anyway once they stop producing an optimal amount of milk. So they're killed at around 5 years of age anyway for their meat when they should naturally live to about 20.
So in answer to your question... vegetarians eat bread because it isn't a living being... it's a fungus so would be the same as eating mushrooms. Oh and most breads don't contain milk and eggs in but even if they did, vegetarians would eat it, vegans would not.
A lot of Sainsbury's bread is vegan!! Most bread is vegetarian unless it is homebaked using lard.
You are right in the fact that many breads do have egg in them. However my 100% Whole Wheat bread does not and you can get it at any Publix for the same price as normal breads.
Vegans do not drink milk or anything related to it like cheese and butter because cows are enslaved to make it. They get fed hormones so they can produce milk much faster then normal and most of they cows never even get to run out free or smell fresh air (and yes animals can die of all the ammonia in the air). There is so much more that happens to the cows that are just wrong but all in all, the milk in the end isn't as great as you think it is because of all the hormones and everything else fed to the cows.

bread doesn't have any meat in it. we eat eggs because they have not been fertilized.
because it is very healthy a man can live off of bread and water alone and technical none of that stuff was alive and if you buy flat bread no yeast/milk is used those eggs that you mentioned were never fertilized so they wouldnt have been a baby chicken anyway and ONLY VEGANS DONT EAT EGGS AND MILK vegetarians can unless you chose not to.
Why are you so hostile? You need to do some research...Don't take some 1/2 bit of info and use it to create an ignorant rant.
milk production is exploitation. cows are not here to serve people. and it's unnatural. i don't think humans were meant to drink milk from a cow, it's for calfs.
Why wouldn't vegetarians eat bread? I have been a vegetarian since May and I have not eaten bread made with eggs since July, I've been a vegan for two weeks, but I haven't eaten bread made with milk since Aug. My favorite bread contains, wheat flour, water, yeast, and vegetable oil. As other's have explained yeast is OK for veg*ns to eat.
Wow. Try some deep breathing.
Just a correction for you - eggs are not baby chickens. Eggs are baby chickens only if they are fertilized by a rooster. There are no roosters on commercial egg farms. The best thing I can compare an egg to is a woman's menstrual period. Would you call your period a baby human? Are you committing murder at 'that time of the month' when you throw away a tampon? Of course not, because it's not a baby without a man's sperm. Same thing.
The reasons vegans don't eat eggs involves cruelty issues with the hen, but not the egg itself.
