I don't know which Pringle flavors are still vegan but the only one I ever got, Original, is no longer vegan. No outrage on my part. There are other brands of chips, many of them IMHO better. If Mr. Pringle doesn't want my business that is ok with me. It still kind of sucks. Pringles was great...

The oat milk range is recent.

nope. It was oat milk before. You know, even the picture of the chocolate bars are the same.
so I don't know what is New about this.
And I don't think it was just planning before.. the article says they are available in stores.
I'm thinking there must be something new.
But I don't know why I care so much. I never did see the orriginal ones in stores. but I would like to get one.

Oh wait, now I see it.
New flavors.

Earthling Ed Announces New Book ‘How To Argue With A Meat-Eater’

Huh.
I think I won't buy that book.
Arguing with a Meat Eater is something we vegans already know how to do.
A book that explains how to convince people to stop eating meat would be something.
Maybe the first thing in that book is NOT to call them a meat eater.

IMHO, Dr. Melanie Joy is the authority on this subject. And it's she who coined the word Carnist, just so we don't have to call them meat eaters.

‘Masculine’ Labels Could Help Men Eat More Vegan Food, Study Claims

A new study claims vegan meals with labels like "beast" are seen as more manly. Could “masculine” words help men eat more plant-based food?

plantbasednews.org

This might make for a good contest or focus group.
Come up with a manly name for a vegan product.
Off the top of my head I'm thinking we name products after Celebrity Athletes or maybe sports or teams. Although I can think there might be hidden pitfalls there.

If lab based meats ever go mainstream we can have Mastodon Burgers for Cave Men. Maybe not have to wait for the lab based versions. Just call a regular plant based burger a Mastodon Burger. although that could be confusing.
