An online space for the vegans of Lemmy.
Rules and miscellaneous:
- We take for granted that if you engage in this community, you understand that veganism is about the animals. You either are vegan for the animals, or you are not (this is not to say that discussions about climate/environment/health are not allowed, of course)
- No omni/carnist apologists. This is not a place where to ask to be hand-holded into veganims. Omnis coddling/backpatting is not tolerated, nor are /r/DebateAVegan-like threads
- Use content warnings and NSFW tags for triggering content
- Circlejerking belongs to /c/vegancirclejerk
- All posts should abide by Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Sometimes it says "Plant-Based" because the bowl is vegan. Not the food, but the physical bowl it is in.

FIBER
Edit: If you are using an app that doesn't do formatting correctly, "Serving bowl" is in sub-script, not scratched out.
That sounds like they might be advertising it as plastic-free, not vegan-friendly
That's exactly what it is. The font size is not significantly different between those words, and it is a single sentence.
Yes it is a different size, but we're talking like font sizes 18 and 20, its not significantly different. To be fair though, plant-based is black while the rest is white.
It clearly is referring to the bowl. It has an arrow pointing to the bowl.
The other side of the packaging, where all the rest of the info about what food is in the product is located also clearly says Vegetarian in larger font. That's where any phrasing like Vegan would clearly be.
This looks like someone trying to find a complaint in an otherwise pretty clearly labelled product. No one would mistake this product unless they didn't look at the packaging.
