Do you drive a care or ride a bicycle

What about the shoes you wear.

There are a lot of items that you would not even think of that are made of

animal by-product.

You might share with the group about your findings.

Piece of wonderful information<snarl>

 

I am vegan so I use nor wear anything made from animal products or by

products or tested on animals. But I wanted to pass this information onto

all of you for those that don't want to inadvertently buy these products. I

was just reading today in " The Idiot's Guide to being a Vegan " , pg 311.

Learned a lot of stuff that I hadn't known. I knew that fur can be labeled

as rabbit, fox, etc and if from China or other countries it could be from a

dog or a cat. Nasty. However, leather manufacturers around the world

sometimes use skins from other animal such as cats, dogs, horses, pigs,

goats, sheep, deer in their production of their leather products. Truth in

labeling laws are virtually non-existent for leather products and those

products are imported to the U.S.
