Vegan

Vegan products with no milk, egg, honey or anything else of animal origin: soy sauce, curry paste, noodles, hot sauce, plant milk, tofu and ice cream. Every item on this page is marked vegan in our catalogue.

What separates vegan from vegetarian

Vegetarian products may contain milk and egg. Vegan ones may not. The difference shows up most in chocolate, biscuits, ice cream and ready meals. See vegetarian for the wider range, and plant-based and vegan for plant milks, tofu and meat alternatives.

Where to watch out

Fish sauce and oyster sauce are most often hidden in Asian sauces and curry pastes. Gelatine is in a lot of sweets, honey and milk powder in biscuits and chocolate, and some colourings and emulsifiers are of animal origin. Read the ingredient list on the sauce, not just on the main ingredient.

Frequently asked questions

Can I rely on the filter? Use it as a starting point, not as a guarantee. We mark products against their packaging, but manufacturers change their recipes. Always read the ingredient list on the product.

Why isn't all the tofu here? This page shows only the products we have managed to mark so far. We work through the range continuously, so the selection is growing. If you are looking for something that is not here yet, see tofu and plant milk and plant drinks.

Is vegan the same as dairy-free? No. Dairy-free products can contain egg or honey. Vegan leaves out everything of animal origin.

What about fish sauce in curry paste? Several Thai curry pastes contain fish sauce or shrimp paste. The ones we have marked vegan are without, but check the packaging if you are in doubt.
