kidbean

Answer: All products at KidBean.com! Many people who eat a vegan diet also lead a vegan lifestyle in which they also avoid animal-derived ingredients in the products they buy, including clothing and personal care products. Products containing wool, leather, silk, down, honey, lanolin, beeswax and any other animal-derived ingredients are NOT vegan. To be considered vegan, products must also not be tested on animals and must not use any animal ingredients or by-products in the manufacturing process.

When shopping anywhere other than KidBean.com, it is important to read ingredient labels and question retailers thoroughly. Many people do not consider silk, honey and beeswax to be animal products, and may claim a product that contains them is vegan.

Vegans have a variety of reasons to choose vegan products, including environmental, ethical, and health reasons.

Please note, however, that it is incredibly difficult, if not impossible, in our society to live without using any products of animal-origin; they are in our cars, bicycles, books, videos, and film. Other vegan sites know this also, and still claim to be 100% vegan, even though they sell books, videos, and stickers. We, like they, do not strive for purity; rather we strive to reduce suffering.
