Vegan Cereal Thrillers

Cereal Thrillers

You might wonder…

 

What makes a breakfast cereal NOT vegan?

Sadly some cereals out there still contain added dairy (whey powder, milk, yoghurt) or honey. Often cereals are also fortified with Vitamin D, derived from lanolin – which is sheep’s wool! Thankfully, there are vegan-friendly, plant-based Vitamin D sources in use as well. However, always make sure to read the ingredience list, and if in doubt check with the manufacturer. Find out more by visiting our 10 Things you need to know about Vitamin D post.

 

Plenty of vegan cereals for all tastes

Our following list is by no means exhaustive, but it will give you some great ideas and tips as where to find what. We recommend to always double-check the ingredients, as changes in manufacturing can happen quickly and often unannounced. If you’re still looking for that perfect dairy-free milk, make sure to visit our Vegan’s Guide to Plant Milk!
