    It is a yeast, yeast doesn’t have nerve endings or a brain and therefore can’t feel pain and suffer.

      Is jelly fish vegan then?

      Mushrooms have complicated communication systems and reproduce sexually, why are they vegan?

        Maybe? Idk? I don’t know anything about them therefore I personally wouldn’t hurt them. It’s also kinda weird splitting hairs like this with someone that chooses to send fully conscious beings to slaughter.

        No one’s forcing you to comply with a specific interpretation of veganism. You can choose your own journey here.

      Can’t feel pain and suffer in any way we’re capable of understanding.

      Is it a lack central nervousness that makes something vegan?

      To me it feels arbitrary, I’m asking because I’m genuinely curious.

      are flatworms vegan?

      Anyone confused like me: it literally just appears to be animals. If it isn’t technically an animal it is fair game.
