ANIMAL INGREDIENTS A TO Z

First Edition

Compiled By The E.G. Smith Collective

INTRODUCTION

------------

The purpose of this pamphlet isn't to preach about why you shouldn't eat animals and how animals are tortured because of societies consumption of them. It has been compiled as a working reference for those who are most likely vegan, and who wonder if Dihydroxyethyl Soyamine Dioleate in their favorite potato chips is vegan (which it isn't).

This pamphlet is comprised of several different articles from all over the country. There where a lot of things that we had collected that we wanted to include but due to the space constraints we where forced to carefully select articles that stayed consistent with the original goal we had set out to accomplish.

The Possible Animal Derived List in this pamphlet requires some explanation. This is a myriad of ingredients that fit into two categories. The first, are ingredients that are most likely animal-derived, but no confirmation has been given by the manufacture(s). The other are ingredients that in some cases are animal-derived, but not always. Usually it is best to use you're best judgement. Lecithin for example will say Soy-Lecithin if it is not derived from animals, on the other hand some ingredients offer no clue to their origins. It is usually best to avoid most of the products listed in this section, just to be safe.

The booklet focuses mainly on food, but it also extends somewhat into shampoos and other products that even people of the meat-eating culture wouldn't normally eat. We have tried to be as thorough and correct as possible, all the information contained in this publication is from reliable sources, all of which are documented at the end, and most have been double checked with our own resources. If you find any additions or corrections please direct them to E.G. Smith Press, P.O. Box 02026, Columbus, Ohio, 43202 -- please include sources and explanations.

Sheep are transported without food or water in extreme heat and cold. Legs are broken, eyes injured, etc. Sheep are bred to be unnaturally woolly. Inferior sheep are killed. Shearing DOES hurt the sheep. They are pinned down violently, sheared roughly. Their skin is cut up. Every year, hundreds of thousands of shorn sheep die from exposure to cold. Natural predators of sheep (wolves, coyotes, eagles, etc.) are poisoned, trapped and shot. In the USA, overgrazing by cattle and sheep is turning more than 150 million acres of land into desert. "Natural" wool raising uses enormous amounts of resources and energy (to breed, raise, feed, shear, transport, slaughter, etc. the sheep). Many people are allergic to wool. Alternatives: cotton, cotton flannel, linen, man made fibers, etc.

animal-derived ingredients, additives, or processing agents:

Also: "Among the breweries making vegan nonalcoholic beer are Miller

(Sharp's), Heileman (Kingsbury), and Anheuser-Busch (O'Doul's Premium
