Hello all..
I have been flirting with veganism for a number of years and after researching it further i'm finally making a serious commitment for my health and love of animals. I read that "sugar is terrible for you" and I know this is a common statement, however, i'm wondering how can I have wine and other alcohol if sugar ( even "vegan" sugar) is a common ingredient. Is vegan sugar not "terrible for you?" even if it consists of the same chemical compounds but only processed by non-animal products? I have been able to avoid sugar aside from wine, however, I don't want to continue drinking it if the effects of sugar will impact my health. Any nutrition gurus out there who can provide some insight?
Thank you!
Peace and Love

I love Frey Wines. Go to www.freywine.com. Vegan and organic! I live in New York so I usually have them ship me a few bottles at a time. Hope you like it!

I don't understand what's not vegan about wine? Just keep it to one or two glasses. Frey wines just don't contain sulphites. Sulphites are a natural occurance in wine so don't worry about it unless you have a sensetivity to them. My favorite everyday wine is Blackstone. It's always consistant in quality and is about $8-10. J. Lohr is awesome as is Root 1 from Chile.

Yellow Tail red wines are vegan, but the white ones aren't, unfortunately.

I love Yellow Tail but am definitely more of a white wine girl, so I was very disappointed to learn that they're not vegan :(.
