No, only because they ignore the fact they're elitist, speciesist bastards. If honey isn't vegan, then yeast ought not to be.

    Isn't yeast kind of it's own thing, kinda halfway between bacteria and fungi? Honey is very clearly an animal byproduct.

    As an elitist, speciest bastard, yeast aren't an animal product. Veganism is about animal cruelty. If you want to start a new fungal rights movement, be my guest.

  • some people become vegan over animal cruelty. i know vegans who have that diet because they think it will help them recover from overexercise better and some who got bit by ticks. i'm sure people have more reasons than these three.

    Honey is produced by a kind of farming of bees, an animal. Yeast just kinda is and grows
