    for those of you who are vegetarian/vegan for issues related to the wrongful treatment of animals, do you also make a conscious effort to use products that haven't been tested on animals?

    i always think it's strange when i meet people concerned for animal welfare in the food sector who pay no attention to vivisection.

    i don't think you'd be eating stuff that was tested on animals! i meant things like shampoo, makeup, medication etc etc

    i make an effort not to use any products tested on animals, and as a result dont eat pringles or drink lucozade as a result, but as of yet am not vegetarian.
