Veganism isn’t only about food. No idea how they handle checking every single item to see if it’s vegan. There’s a lot of stuff that uses non-vegan stuff to be produced.
Cooking is easy, the hard part is knowing what exactly IS vegan.
There’s an app called Fig that I use that makes it much easier. You tell it what you don’t want to buy (there are presets for vegan, vegetarian, allergies, brand boycotts, etc.), and you take a picture of the ingredients list on a product. It’ll tell you if it matches your preferences, or even if it’s questionable.
Like most things, you learn as you go. I just learned my dishsoap isn’t vegan, but I already have it, I’m not throwing it away now. I just wont buy it again. I’ll be checking the next soap I buy. Each new thing needs to be researched. I’m just more comfortable with my choices than I was before.
