Heavy - Active for much of the day, walking non-stop and carrying objects. Typical jobs: hospital/ward nurse, waitressing in a busy restaurant, cleaner, porter, labourer/construction worker, gardener, farm worker. Leisure Activity Level In the case of bone char-produced sugar, the widespread prevalence of this method in the sugar industry makes avoiding it completely exceptionally challenging. Moderate - On your feet for much of the day, either standing or occasional slow paced walking. Typical jobs: shop assistant, teacher, chef/cook, bar worker, engineer.However, many vegan products also feature a ‘may contain’ label, due to factory conditions so it is down to personal choice for many vegans whether they choose to eat products carrying this warning.

However, it’s important to note that the concept of veganism, as defined by The Vegan Society, encourages the avoidance of animal exploitation to the best of one’s ability and practicality. As mentioned earlier, while Oreos in the UK are suitable for vegans, in the US they are made from sugar filtered with a charcoal-like substance called bone char. Moderately active - Do light to moderate intensity exercise 3-4 times a week. E.g. going to the gym / swimming / cycling / horse riding / dance classes / playing golf.

Not having to give up regular supermarket buys or find alternative versions of your classic teatime treats makes transitioning to a vegan diet even easier. If you’ve decided that the issues surrounding classic Oreos are something you wish to avoid in your diet, you might be wondering what vegan Oreo alternatives are there? But here’s the deal: avoiding this sugar altogether isn’t that simple. While not all sugar production in the US involves the use of bone char, discerning whether a specific product contains sugar derived from this process can prove challenging. As a result, many vegans may find it difficult to avoid consuming products that potentially incorporate bone char-filtered sugar.
