Guest guest Posted May 4, 2007 Report Share Posted May 4, 2007 here in san diego we've a few options including a place called sipz (http://www.sipz.com/). they claim to be almost all vegan, and claim that their few non-vegan menu items are clearly marked (e.g., they do a walnut faux shrimp dish that requires mayo, and for some unknown reason they use egg mayo instead of the fine vegannaise products). i've eaten there several times for the vegan cuisine and have determined that they use the pre-made faux meat products distributed by vegeusa and made in asia: http://www.vegeusa.com/Index.html i have bought the retail vegeusa products at whole foods and prepared them at home and they...are...delicious! and they are no doubt the same produts used by sipz. here's the problem: since sipz sells these prepared items as " vegan " i didn't read the ingredients (one of the only times i've ever done this) and sure enough, the faux chicken products contain whey. they are not vegan. that's fine, i won't be eating them anymore. however, the restaurant sells these products to vegans as vegan food items and that's wrong. i plan on pointing this out to them, and frankly i'm a little pissed off about it. it's absolutely false advertising. anyway, have a great day! sebsi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
