I Can't Believe It's Vegan!

from the site:

Being vegan doesn't mean you have to eat wheatgrass and alfalfa sprouts. Most grocery stores carry an array of great-tasting vegan options. Many products, including fantastic faux franks, veggie burgers, chicken-free chicken patties, flavored soy milks, nondairy ice creams, and other sensational soy-based snacks, are marketed to vegetarians and vegans. There's also an abundance of chips, dips, cookies, candies, frozen pies, soups, and other mouth-watering items by mainstream food manufacturers that are also vegan.

Take a stroll through your local grocery store, check some ingredients, and you'll see what we mean. You may even be surprised to find that a few of your favorite indulgences happen to be vegan! For example, did you know that Pepperidge Farm Turnovers, Murray Butter Cookies, and Cracker Jacks are all vegan? They may not all be "health foods," but they are great for the taste buds! Just remember, one cannot live on Goldenberg Peanut Chews alone.

I love the site I Can't Believe It's Vegan.com. It's a great source of vegan items you can find at chain markets. Just be careful becuase a lot of the items do contain soy, since they are processed.

True, soy is vegan. Personally, I don't just like to use too many soy products because there have been studies published about a link between breast cancer and soy. Also, The Kind Diet talks about the great soy debate. So, I just try and limit my intake of soy.

a lot of the foods on the list are unhealthy (oreos and skittles have a negative nutrient content) but... at least people are hurting themselves and not those that cannot defend themselves :)

We're compiling a list of Australian accidentally-vegan products too. I think it's good for people who are just starting out and want to know that lots of convenience/easy to find foods are vegan as well.

Don't forget to read the disclaimer at the bottom of the page. I think it's always best to double check the ingredients list, and/or contact the product maker for more information.
