Paper basket
Why not weave a small basket?
Material is thin and strong paper (30 centimeter square). Japanese paper is good.
Divide it in twelve.
Make a long tape with glue.
Twist the tape. A tape of 30 cm will be 26-27 cm cord.
Cut off 3 bases. A base is 13 cm. Also the end of the longer cord is a base and a handle.
Now I change the color of bases to show the process clearer.
The bases don't spread uniformly.
Weave the side.
Cut the excess of the bases except 2. Glue the ends of the bases to the top line of the basket. Glue both ends of 2 bases. It is a handle.
Wind the handle with the cord.
Wind the edge of the basket with the rest of cord. Glue the end of the cord to inside.
Diameter is 4.5 centimeters.
When increasing the bases, it will be strong a little.
Glue the handle.
Paper basket is rough and weak. It's only an accessory for doll.
If using a ready-made cord, you will make stronger one easily.

Bodice and apron
This bodice is easy.
Cut felt without seam allowance.
Punch eyelets. Put glue on the edge of eyelets.
Sew the shoulders from outside.
Put on. Lace up the front.
The strip cloth is 4 cm × 60 cm (includes margin).
Sew lace to the apron. Make gather. Sew it to the strip. The waistband is 8 centimeters.
Fold and stitch the strip.
Pattern of the dress, bodice and apron.

Dress making
One-piece dress for simple felt doll.
This is an example. You will make one in your way.
Add seam allowance (4 or 5 millimeters). But the opening of the back needs 13 millimeters.
Skirt is larger than the petticoat a little. Skirt includes margin.
Sew up the shoulder and side.
Put notches in the margin of the side.
Gather the skirt and sew it to the waist.
Fold and stitch the bottom of skirt and cuffs.
Sew some gathered lace to the neckline.
Attach snaps.
Dress pattern.
May 7, 2013
Today, I make pants and petticoat for this doll.
Pants are made of 2 rectangles. Seam allowance is included.
Sew lace to the bottom.
Sew up A to B.
Put the seam to the middle. Sew up the thigh (B-C).
Pass through elastic cords in the waist and bottom, or make shirring with elastic threads.

J.Law has a lot of experience accepting awards, but she still seemed super-excited about winning Best Supporting Actress, the first award of the night, at the Golden Globes. She talked about falling in love with director David O. Russell's work from watching I Heart Huckabees and thanked her American Hustle cast. And then in an endearing J.Law admission, she confessed to not seeing all the movies that have come out recently. "I actually did watch all of the movies this sea — not all them, but you know what I mean." Watch the speech below.

Previously this blog was dedicated to the life and endeavors of a teenage vegan navigating a non-vegan world, with recipes, tips, animal activism and more!
Now, as of March 2011, I am embarking on a raw food journey for health as well as ethical reasons. Although I am currently raw, I am leaving all of my previous content up, including cooked-food recipes, etc. Veganism is great for the planet, the animals, and YOU!, no matter which form of it you choose to follow :)

This was a good idea to put up. There is also a greek place at Tower City (Downtown Cleveland Mall) that has a butt-kick Falafel that packs a lot of flavor.
Be sure to tell them no cheese on the salad, I get extra hummus instead.

Hungry Howies is another vegan-friendly option. The thin crust, regular pizza sauce, cajun flavoring, subsauce (I don't know what good that does anyone), garden salads (it doesn't come with cheese), greek dressing, italian dressing, lo-fat italian dressing, and french. But I really don't know what "xantham gum" is. That's in all the dressings so I'm kinda iffy.
Eat up kids.

This list is great & really thorough! I'm always on the go, so I'll keep this handy. Thanks, Allie! Stay firm in your beliefs.
- Sunday, January 14, 2007 1:01:00 AM
I'm pretty sure and PLEASE let me know if I'm wrong -
Dominoes Pizza dough is vegan, you can get a vegan pizza if you ask for it without cheese. Be careful not to get any sauce packets though as the dipping cups of marinara have milk powder in them. I do NOT think the bread sticks are vegan? as they have butter and weird sprinkles of some sort of MSG cheese combo - unless this has changed since I worked their...

This list is really great. Has anyone heard anything about options at Red Robin?
- Thursday, February 15, 2007 6:19:00 PM
I used to work at Pizza Hut and here's the vegan options:
Thin n' crispy and hand tossed dough. NOT pan dough or breadsticks/cinnasticks.
The beans for the taco pizza are NOT vegan.
Both the sweet sauce and normal pizza sauces ARE vegan.
We didn't serve the pasta or sandwiches, so I don't know about those.
My favorite: Hand tossed dough, extra sauce with jalapenos and pineapple. Sounds weird, but it's tasty :)

hey i found this site through a search (i'm about to go on a road trip with 3 omni's, so i figured i'd better read up on fast food options). my husband worked at pizza slut for years and he said that as far as he knows, their sauce has meat in it. pizza hut got sued by some vegetarians over it and he said they won because they have one of those tiny disclaimers at the bottom of their menu that said the veggie pizzas weren't actually vegetarian. so i would really double check. it might just be his store, but i'm not sure...

Great list, but many Boca/Veggie burgers are not vegan. Have you checked them out? If so, thanks you've done a lot of work for us.
- Thursday, June 28, 2007 9:09:00 AM
the french toast sticks are burger king are NOT vegan, burger king lists the "natural and artifical flavors" as both plant & animal derived.
pretty much nothing at taco bell is vegan.
- the rice is cooked with chicken stock.
-the soft shells have DATEM in them. but i'm not sure about the hard shells.
-and the refried beans have pork fat in them.
but there is still tons of awesome info here! thanks!
- Thursday, July 26, 2007 3:05:00 PM
Cool site. There is some misinformation to clear up. According to Taco Bell's website:
Beans, tortillas, potatoes, and flatbread, have no animal ingredients, as well as a few other things, see the detailed ingredients PDF link below. Now that I have read that though, I won't eat there again, too may additives and weird stuff.
- Sunday, July 29, 2007 2:43:00 AM
For some reason my link cuts off and will not post. For the info, go to Taco Bell's site and click on tab that says "Nutition Guide" then it will show the ingredient statment.
- Sunday, July 29, 2007 2:50:00 AM
Taco Bell's rice IS vegan and their refried beans contain no lard.
It is by far the most vegetarian/vegan friendly fast food restaurant.
- Monday, August 13, 2007 1:33:00 PM
- Amy said...
But Taco Bell isn't all that vegan because the soft shells contain DATEM which is most likely animal derived.
It can be plant derived though, but I'm erring on the side of caution until I hear back from Taco Bell.
- Thursday, August 16, 2007 12:26:00 AM
- Kevin said...
Even if the food is vegan keep in mind that by buying fast food you are supporting the industry and helping fund some of the top companies that use animal products. Fast food resturants are incredibly detrimental to the planet as well considering all the land/resources they use, the high cost for low price.
- Sunday, September 16, 2007 2:59:00 PM
I have trouble trusting anything a company tells me. I would like to see the packages start to finish myself. Oviously I am looking for easy options but it seems like quite a leap of faith. Not to mention that fast food turned me veg in the first place. I just think that there is a good chance that there will be some misunderstanding and miscommunications. Or blaten lies.
BOCA (which is a subsidary of KRAFT) published products on their website as being vegan when they were clearly not. They stated that some products had been made vegan recently so check the label to make sure. I wrote to them and let them know that almost all of the products advertised contained egg white (no brainer). I accused them of tricking people and hiding behind their "check the label" disclaimer. To my knowledge most of these products still contain egg white and are still being advertised as vegan.
Think about the people you are dealing with when you contact these companies. To believe them on a whim would be like believing them if they said their products are healthy.
P.S. BOCA seemed awfuly eager to send me free stuff concerning this matter. So, if you want some coupons then write them a letter about it. Link is on the site.

Brueggers "minestrone" soup has BACON flavoring in it. Maybe the soup varies by ingredients by market. Tricky...

The best thing is to just eat a bowl of lettuce and tomatoes, most fast food places can do this as they use lettuce and tomatoes for their burgers or tacos etc.
- Tuesday, October 30, 2007 4:16:00 PM
The list is pretty good. However, french fries at most extablishments on the list have meat by-products added to give it "flavor." There was a law suit a while back against McD's by vegetarian and Indian (from India) over eating fries that turned out not to be vegetarian.
Outside of that I was impress with the list. It looked as if a lot of thoughtful work went into it.
- Saturday, November 03, 2007 11:10:00 AM
Would anyone be interested in starting up a vegan fast food restaurant and convience store?
- Saturday, November 03, 2007 11:14:00 AM
Xanthum gum is a naturally occuring fermented food product made from vegetables and sugars under a particular bacterial strain. it is vegan unless you want to sweep all your food of bacteria! Lol!
- Wednesday, November 14, 2007 8:25:00 PM
If you all are so focused on being "vegan" then why are you even eating taco bell? It's not at all a healthy place to eat. Being vegan isn't just about the animal products, it's also about health and the quality of the food we put into our bodies. Lets get our priorities straight.
- Thursday, December 06, 2007 4:24:00 PM
Why are some people getting all uppity about this list? If you're vegan and you don't want to eat fast food, then don't. I don't see why it's necessary to tantrum over those who do eat vegan fast food. If you're so opposed to vegan fast food options, why are you even looking at this list in the first place? Also, not all vegans are vegan for their own health reasons, so criticizing people for eating fast food because it's unhealthy doesn't make a whole lot of sense. There are a lot of vegans who are vegan because they care about defending the welfare of animals who can't defend themselves. As far as I'm concerned, every little bit counts, and giving people a hard time for eating vegan fast food is counterproductive. Maybe you should spend more time trying to encourage non-vegans to cut out animal products and less time complaining about vegans who eat fast food. Anyway, you can eat fast food once in a while and still be healthy, so calm yourselves.

Here is a great reference to what different ingreadients are used in different food brands, restaurants, and fast food chains! FYI Quizno's bread DOES have whey in it, the L-Cysteine is synthetic. I read this information from the Director of Quizno's quality assurance on this site, subway bread is no good either =( honey, stearoyl-2-lactylate, mono and diglycerides are used.
This is a great great site! Hard to manuever around, but once you get the hang of it, it's wonderful!
- Friday, December 28, 2007 12:44:00 PM
I guess it would help if I posted the link!! ha ha.
- Friday, December 28, 2007 12:45:00 PM
it didn't paste the whole thing...
oh. and the italian bread is no good too... it contains everything the wheat does except the honey. All of the breads, wraps, rolls contain mono & di glycerides which are animal fat. The alternative would be vegetable glycerides. Hope it works this time.
- Friday, December 28, 2007 12:53:00 PM
This list does not take into account bleached flour. For instance, it is stated that the baked apple pie at McDonald's is vegan, however, when you check their site it states they use bleached wheat flour and a sugar that may or may not be bleached as well. There may be other discrepancies, but I will simply check the ingredients myself. Thanks for the list though, it gives somewhere to start. =)
- Tuesday, January 01, 2008 8:12:00 PM
Thanks for the list but just thinking...
Why sell yourself out and eat some junk at taco bell, for example? If you're vegan, why support a company whose practices largely are not?
If you can, just plan ahead - pull together your own meals. No question of what's in them then.
- Tuesday, January 08, 2008 11:32:00 AM
If you go to Taco Bell's website, and look under "Food Facts", read the answer to question #9--there is no lard in the refried beans.
- Saturday, February 02, 2008 12:09:00 PM
Hey, peoples, STOP dissing this list! Some of us (not you, of course, oh high and mighty anonymous number whatever!) have no choice but to eat out sometimes, eg those of us who live in omni households! It's only a few people, but still annoying as anything.
Anyways, thanks for posting! (And, fellow commenters, thanks for confirming/ refuting the list!) I'd just like to say that McDonalds puts a small print at the bottom of their nutrition facts, saying that they can't confirm that anything that they sell is veg. Nope, not even the soda. So that should probably be everyone's LAST choice.
As for Taco Bell, I've asked in different ones and it DOES depend on the place. We have two within fifteen miles of each other, and one has a vegan bean burrito, the other's isn't even vegetarian. So it's always best to ask!
- Sunday, February 03, 2008 2:09:00 PM
I am a vegan diabetic. Even though I usually avoid fast food like the plague, I occasionally find myself out somewhere and in desperate need of vegan food fast. This list is valuable. Those of you who are complaining about it just need to STFU. Knowledge is power.
- Sunday, February 17, 2008 2:53:00 PM
FYI everyone-- Johnny Rockets' onion rings contain whey, and hence (and sadly) are not vegan.

Hippie Vegan..
this is listed on the FAQ for Red Robins:

hate to break it to ya but I think taco bells beans have lard in them.
- Thursday, May 01, 2008 12:17:00 AM
sorry guys,
but i work at noodles and company.
and the only vegan options include the japanese pan noodles and the indonesian peanut saute. both the penne rosa and pasta fresca have unfriendly products in the sauces they put in.
one interesting thing, however, is that at noodles locations where they have switched from the "rustic roll" to the new "ciabatta roll", the new ciabatta roll is vegan.

At my local Einstein Bro. Bagels I was told that the bagels are NOT vegan and have eggs.
Also, the CheBurgerCheBurger near me said that their was dairy in the Boca Burgers they use.

Hey! Just wanted to say thanks for the list. I've been a vegetarian for a couple years and just became vegan and this was incredibly helpful. I know fast food isn't healthy, but it's often inevitable especially with non-vegan family and friends.
Also Taco Bell beans and rice are definitely vegan. I've had multiple trustworthy vegan help sites confirm that.
- Wednesday, June 18, 2008 11:42:00 AM
Thanks so much to chose from when traveling!
At noodles you can ask for them to hold the cream on the pesto. Very good

i work at Domino's Pizza and
the hand tossed crust and thin crust are completely vegan..the sauce is also vegan as well.the deepdish crust contains milk..the cina stix(w/o butter) are also vegan(the icing is animal free as far as i know)..the butter says it is vegetable oil with natural flavoring, but im not 100% sure what these "natural flavors" are.Oh and the bread sticks are vegan too(w/o butter and w/o the garlic shake,as it contains cheese).the marinara sauce says nothing of milk powder.im pretty sure the only sauce's that aren't vegan would be the ranch and the blue cheese.
- Thursday, July 17, 2008 12:13:00 PM
Alright, first off, FUCK MCDONALDS! That place is not vegan period. I don't think one could call themselves veggitarian or vegan if they eat there. Also, question: Quizno why were subs not listed?

Chipotle!! Their guacamole has cheese! Be careful and Wendy's now says they use the same fryers for the chicken.
- Monday, August 04, 2008 8:36:00 PM
i dont think the guacamole has cheese in it. they have a great website with ingredients listed.
basically we are all given conflicting opinions of what 'vegan' is, so dont trust any of them! whenever i even tell people im vegan they never understand how strict it is! i guess the four main things to stay away from are whey, milk, eggs, honey? oh and carcass of course :) it becomes so confusing b/c a lot of these places dont list things as vegan but you can make it vegan.

gluten is safe! (right?)
i got worried when you said chipotle wasn't safe (though there are always the bowl things instead of tortillas)
- Monday, August 25, 2008 2:07:00 PM
To the guy two posts up...take heart! Gluten comes from grains, like wheat, rye, and barley, not animals. Something can contain gluten and still be vegan.
Just thought I'd chime in!

With all due respect, does anyone care about the chemical shit storm in these foods? I could be wrong, but...
- Monday, September 15, 2008 12:31:00 PM
Annie - yes, yes I do. But sometimes your 90 year old Grandma wants to take you out to eat to thank you for work done around her house, and as much as she supports your veganism, she won't take no for an answer. So while it's generally (or always) best to avoid these places, it's good to know what there is out there if you need it.

Have you ever heard of L-cysteine, it is commonly, but not always made from human hair, and pig hair, and horse hair. Most large producers of bagels and breads have this ingredient in it. For example, all Panera Bread bagels, and some of their breads have it. They do have a full ingredient list at every cafe, so you know what is safe and what isn't.
- Tuesday, November 18, 2008 3:07:00 PM
Are any of these items soy-free? I'm pretty sure a large amount of them aren't.
I'm a former vegan who became an omnivore after I found out I was allergic to soy and also had a thyroid problem (soy blocks the thyroid. don't believe the hype that it doesn't. it's highly likely it wrecked my thyroid in the first place).
I also can't eat anything made from white flour, anything with a lot of sugar in it, cabbage, kale, collards, mustard, peanut butter/peanuts, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, and a ton of other things.
Is there ANYTHING on this list that I can eat? Lol. =/
I'm trying to find a way to be a vegan or at least lacto or ovo-lacto vegetarian again and still meet all my health requirements for all of my health issues (hypothyroid, endometriosis, Stein-Leventhal Syndrome, epilepsy, and TMJ disorder [that one really doesn't affect my food choices much] ), and not aggravate any of my food sensitivities/allergies.
I MIGHT be able to do this at home, but eating out could be a big problem.
Anybody else have similar problems that could offer me some advice?
- Wednesday, November 26, 2008 4:10:00 PM
Oh, I forgot to ask, how can walnuts not be vegan?
And can you possibly link me to some of the sites that list this type of thing by region? I've never heard of half of the restaurants on this list, lol.
Also, I currently live in the boondocks, so it's really difficult to find this kind of thing. A regional list would be of big help.
- Wednesday, November 26, 2008 4:13:00 PM
Sorry for the flood, but I forgot to mention that I also cannot have anything with sage in it, for anyone who can help me out with some food choices that I won't get sick or die from, lol. :S
And to the person who was concerned about something that said "bacon flavoring", it might not be real bacon. A lot of times it's just Baco-Bits and things like that, and as far as I can remember, those are made out of soy, not meat, 'cause I'm pretty sure I ate those on salads sometimes when I was a vegan.

I work at Northern Lights when I'm home from school which is in Iowa/Kansas/Missouri and NOTHING there is vegan. All the crust has milk and butter in it and all the sauces have cheese, just a heads up.
I also work at NAKED Pizza in New Orleans and our NAKED Bagels are vegan and our pizzas are vegan as long as you hold the cheese...and I'm trying to get my boss to get some vegan mozzarella when I get back. Just an FYI in case you're from either area =)
Oh and THANKS for the list it helps a lot when friends want to eat out!! (I only have ONE vegan friend).

McD's are a crowd of w*nkers anyway, they are trying to kill us all AND make profit. That goes for omni's and vegans alike!
I wouldn't indulge there if you paid me.
Back when I first became vegan, when my friends use to always eat McD's, I would just sit there staring at the oozing animal lard coming from the fries and flesh. I had a salad w/o the dressing or cheese once or twice but then decided there was no point as i don't even want to support them in any way. When I was all calorie-conscious I use to carry around there nutritional info sheet n my purse, but that's another story.
On another note, good effort and list for the vegans eating FF.
- Thursday, March 05, 2009 1:12:00 PM
Taco Bell has lists of ingredients online for viewing. It looks as though they keep updating their recipes to keep as much animal products out of as many things as possible. The beans are now animal product free and so is the rice which used to contain casein. Even the lime red tortilla strips used to have milk, but no longer due. Here is the link:
FYI: I love to get double decker tacos with just beans, guacamole, and lettuce. They rock!

Pizza Hut's Handtossed Dough uses Sucralose (i.e. Splenda) as an ingredient. I suggest staying away from it.
Only safe options at Pizza Hut is Thin Crust + any sauce + any combination of veggies.
Breadsticks are to be avoided as well. They use unhealthy emulsifiers in the dough.

Thanks a lot for this list. I just became vegan one month ago. I was not vegetarian before this, I went straight from omni to vegan. I am still attempting to learn what is vegan friendly and what is not, so I am still making mistakes, but lists like this help greatly.
If you find yourself in situations of travel or times where you need to eat out, spend an extra ten minutes by stopping by a grocery store and picking up some fruit and grains or buying a vegetarian chili along with some whole wheat bread, I have found this combination to be much more fulfilling and pleasurable then going out to fast food. One of my friends whom is vegan managed to hardly ever eat fast food with us, even though we were all omni, for around three years. Chipotle was probably his only exception.

i would like to point at that Houston's veggie burger is not only not vegan like claimed, but it is not even vegetarian. after eating it for 10 years, i finally learned that there is fish oil in the sweet soy sauce they put on it. this is in addition to them carrying NO vegan bread, adding cheese, mayo, and not having vegetarian ketchup. if you want the burger vegan, you have to say VEGAN and hope they understand what it means.

I'd really hate to break it to you. But as far as I know, Noodles and Co. Cook all their stuff in the same pans, so you risk yours noodles and tofu to be cooked in a pan that had meat product or dairy.

in the bagels. [L-cysteine is derived from an animal source according to the email I received from Panera]

I work at Domino's Pizza and the hand tossed is NOT vegan. It contains milk. Same for the deep dish and pasts bowls. Vegan items include thin crust, all veggies, pizza sauce, garlic seasoning, sandwich bread, marinara dip, habanero sauce, crushed peppers, and garlic dip. I like the Pacific Veggie minus pizza cheese, minus feta cheese. When you order, tell them "write in big letters 'DO NOT CUT!' on the box sticker" because the pizza cutter is ALWAYS contaminated with grease!

Going back to the L-cysteine/ cysteine/ cystine discussion, if it were derived from human hair, it would still be disgusting, but would it be non-vegan? I've read that the hair is often collected from barber shops, so no one was harmed in the collection of it...

Hello all this is regarding Taco Bell. People are going on and on about the beans. I did find that the beans are technically vegan but the beans still contain something that I don't think people should consume. It a nice chemical called TBHQ. For those of you that don't know what it is According to A Consumer's Dictionary of Food Additives, TBHQ is a form of butane (i.e. lighter fluid) the FDA allows processors to use sparingly in our food: It can comprise no more than 0.02 percent of the oil in a nugget. Which is probably just as well, considering that ingesting a single gram of TBHQ can cause "nausea, vomiting, ringing in the ears, delirium, a sense of suffocation, and collapse." Ingesting five grams of TBHQ can kill.
Think about it. Do you still want that in your system?
- Wednesday, February 03, 2010 3:00:00 PM
Denny's has vegan Boca burgers available.
And I'm sure all processed and fast food contains chemicals like TBHQ.
- Sunday, February 14, 2010 10:49:00 AM
Wendy's fries do not contain fish, this is taken from their website:
"Note: may be cooked in the same oil as Fish Fillets (where available), Crispy Chicken Nuggets, Crispy Chicken Patty, Boneless Wings and Spicy Chicken Nuggets. Seasoned with Salt."
- Sunday, February 14, 2010 10:54:00 AM
I can't stand the hypocrites telling everyone to stop supporting fast food joints by eating there. You may as well stop buying anything at supermarkets because they stock tons of animal products. Think before you speak, there is virtually no way to live a 100% completely vegan lifestyle - your vegetables and grain are grown in soil fertilized with animal manure, most health food brands are owned by much larger corporations that also own brands that use animal products, and you have most likely consumed some type of preservative/food dye/natural flavor that had an animal source since going vegan. The point is everyone does the best they can to live a 100% cruelty free lifestyle - there is no reason to come in here and complain that people who support fast food places are not "true" vegans. Get off your high horse.
- Sunday, February 14, 2010 11:03:00 AM
Taco Bell rice is NOT vegan. It contains Casein which is a protein derived from milk. Yum! Brands (own Taco Bell) posted their ingredients online.
I'm pretty bummed about this because the rice on my fresco bean burrito was heavenly for awhile.

Your Noodles entry needs to be updated. This is what they say on their site:
While there is no commonly accepted definition for vegan, we define
it as menu items that don't contain meat, fish, dairy, eggs or other
animal products. If your definition matches ours, try these menu items:
- Indonesian Peanut Sauté
- Japanese Pan Noodles
- Chinese Chop Salad with no wontons
- Penne Rosa with no cream and no cheese
- Pasta Fresca with no cheese
- Whole Grain Tuscan Linguine with no cream and no cheese
- Spaghetti with no cheese

Also, I e-mailed carabarra's and chilis and then sent me a list of everything they have that is vegan and what to ask for (to make it vegan. I made copies of the e-mail and keep it in our vehicles for when we are out and hungry.
Also, California pizza kitchen as a part on the site that says vegan options as well.
Hope this helps!!!

I've been vegan for 10 years, if u truly want to not consume animal products you should buy the book Animal Ingredients A-Z and u will realize 85% of the things on this list contain animal ingredients. Things deep fried in the same oil as fish and chicken absorb the fat from these animals. Most breads contain mono-dyglycerids which is animal fat. Whey is from milk. The list goes on and on. Who ever made this list didn't take ANY of these things into consideration, and this list should be a "strict vegetarian" fast food list not a vegan fast food list. Most breaded deep fried foods have egg in them also. "Natural Flavoring" can be from anything "natural" including animals. I mean I could go on and on but I just wanted to let people know if u truly want to eat vegan food do not listen to this list.

I work at Jimmy Johns - the bread is NOT vegan. But you can get a vegetarian sub as an unwich (wrapped in lettuce) without cheese or mayo, but be advised that all of the ingredients are prepared on the same cutting board, so it is possible that your veggies will have touched meat juice/mayo. The plain and reduced-fat chips are made with potatoes, peanut/sunflower oil, and sea salt as the only ingredients, so they are vegan. The salt & vinegar chips contain lactose (from milk). I'm not sure about the barbeque and jalapeno chips. The pickles are vegan; the cookies are not.
- Monday, May 31, 2010 10:50:00 PM
I appreciate the stance of Vegans; however, attempting to convert people usually comes easier when one is not so judgmental or immature in her responses. Also, I found it interesting that you have allowed Google to place ads on your blog (for which I presume you receive payment or a deal), and the top ad is for a restaurant that provides dishes to omnivores (Jimmy John's Sandwiches
5 Subs Less than 4 Grams of Fat Hold the Mayo. Click, Order, Eat!
www.JimmyJohns.com.). It just seems a bit hypocritical.
That said, I found much of your information useful and plan to use some of it in my current project, part of which is the process of converting to a Vegetarian (and eventually Vegan) lifestyle.
So, while I understand you are attempting to gather supporters, because of many of your self righteousness replies & comments, I am choosing not to sign up for your blog. However, I will continue to move toward Vegan lifestyle because I think it's the right thing to do for me.
While I disagree a bit with your approach, I do appreciate the fact that as a high school student, you were and are willing to take a stand on something in which you believe.
Good luck to you!

Also, I really wish that fast food would make something more substantial on their menus for us vegans or vegan enthusiasts! Yeah i know the strawberry jam is vegan as well as the salad, but if im gonna drive to ur dang drive thru i want some damn protien of the plant kind, but then again that is the fast food world for ye, plus i dont really rely on fast food anyway

Thanks for all the info, i've been vegetarian for 11 years and thinking of becoming a Vegan now. The more I look into ingredients of things, the more discusted I become with companys! Just a heads up for everyone, Chilis chips are not vegan in my opinion. On their website, under the vegan menu it says that there fried foods (chips, fish, shrimp, chicken..etc.) are all cooked in one fryer and share the same oil. I called the local Chili's and spoke with a manager she confirmed that they use the same fryer, and told me they reuse the oil til its gone.. there fore there chips are covered in animal oil prettymuch. Can anyone help me figure out what Datem is? It's in most bread products, ive been told its not vegan and I cant get a exact definition on google..

Anonymous above is an idiot. Not only can they not type correctly, but they are assuming that this list contains products that are labeled vegan falsely.
If you read the date of the entry, which was posted in 2006, you can see that there might be outdated information. If you aren't intelligent enough to check it out yourself and would rather complain and rant against an outdated post, perhaps you should just keep your comments to yourself.

well, last time i checked.. PETAs list of vegan stuff has golden graham cereal on it.. which clearly contains honey. they also have a disclaimer stating that they consider foods that are 99% vegan to be vegan. otherwise, people wouldn't eat them and the companies might just opt to use animal products since it "wouldn't make a difference".. it's all about what YOU think.. stop bashing other people and let them have their opinions.

an employee at jimmy johns told me that they use pork lard in their bread to give it that "je ne se quois" i am allergic to pork and now understand why i was getting stomach cramps every time i ate the veggie sandwich there. i stopped eating there because i got sick every time.

i used to work at panera bread so i know all of the vegan options:
the bagels and many of the breads (including ciabatta) contain mono-diglycerides, which are (sometimes) not vegan. it's virtually impossible to trace where they get it, as i tried at my cafe to no avail.
any of the whole grain/multigrain/etc. breads have honey in them, as well as the tomato basil bread (which is what the med. veg sandwich is served on)
the breads that ARE safe: sourdough, rye, french, country, and sesame.
there's also other vegan menu options:
many of the salads are vegan (just watch dressings, like caesar, and ask for it on the side, as oftentimes bacon or cheese will fall into the bins that hold dressing on the salad line because they are in the front)
black bean soup is vegan (ask to add the black bean corn mix that they put on the bbq chopped chix salad... it makes it even more delicious)
garden vegetable soup is vegan WITHOUT PESTO. they add the pesto seperately, so just ask for it without.
the med veg sandwich is only vegan if you get it on a different bread and with no cheese. be careful with the hummus. it, like the salad dressings, is in the front, and often will get meat or mayo or some junk in it.
also, the baguettes (french or wg) aren't vegan. you have to get a different side. you can just ask for a slice of one of the other breads instead though if you're set on carbs.

Taco Bell rice IS vegan and DOES NOT contain casein. Their beans DO Not contain lard or any other animal product. Read or research for yourself; don't just take some idiot's opinion who regurgitates what his brainless friends say.
While I am impressed with this blog and appreciate the posting of fast foods that are vegan, I am underwhelmed by the ignorance and snobbishness of many of those posting comments.
Seriously, walnuts aren't vegan?, gluten is not vegan?, etc. Since those comments don't appear to be malicious, then we can just chalk them up to pure ignorance.
And as for those who are so concerned over the purity of their vegan lifestyle that they freak out if any of their food even potentially touches the surface of anything that may have touched meat or non-vegan items, or are concerned about purchasing something that enriches a company that is not 100% vegan in everything it does..., really???
If you are that serious, then you should totally isolate yourself from society, grow all your own food, fertilize the ground all with you own waste, and STFU. Because, if that is not the way you are living currently, then there is something that you are doing, buying, contributing to, etc. that is not in 100% complete harmony with your professed vegan "pureness" and you are nothing more nor less than a hypocrite.

About Macaroni Grill – their fresh pasta's have eggs in them, and furthermore, tell them not to put butter on your pasta, because they put butter on it by default!!!

coldstones whey in their sorbets is derived from milk.

To the person who said In-N-Out! burder without the burger/sauce
I loved eating there and also told them not to grill the bun (grilled with the meat patty next to it on the same grill) untill I found out the buns have EGG in them. BEWARE!

Thank you so much for that amazing list. That makes my cravings for fast food a lot easier to handle :) I am vegan for 6 month now and still having a pretty hard time sticking to it.
- Sunday, April 10, 2011 6:57:00 AM
First of all, thank you for all the ffort and time that you've put into this list. Second, all the self-righteous vegans out there can kiss my french vegan ass. Some of us are vegans not because we are obsessed our health or appearance but because we don't want to harm any living sentient beings. If you are vegan for your health-good for you!! Stopp judging others on their food choices- don't you get judged enough- don't you know what that feels like moron? The list is a good effort and helpful. And maybe giving money to these businesses isn't the best idea but if the consumers start taking control and buying vegan or vegetarian. Options maybe the age old supply and demand will kick in and companies will change their ways. Have faith in your fellow humans. And stop being douches. Thanks!
- Saturday, April 23, 2011 12:07:00 PM
Boca Burgers or products are not vegan. They use dairy in them as do many, many other products that claim to be "meatless" or vegetarian. Please consider this so as not to mislead vegans who want to avoid cruelty to animals. Thanks

Thank you for this list! It is very helpful since I am currently trying to transition into a vegan diet :) but just one thought for those that haven't worked in fast food like I have: even the lettuce, tomato, other vegetables could have been contaminated with meat or dairy products. I work the dressing table at Steak and Shake and I know personally that sometimes cheese gets into the salad lettuce or tomato bins just by accident! So just a thought, but thank you for the list for clarification on what things are MADE vegan in fast food restaurants :)

This list is pretty old but still wanted to leave a comment,
Being Vegan should not only be about the animals but it should also be about your health. Yeah your not killing any animals but your slowly killing yourself. What good does that do?? A dead vegan can't save any animals.
Also you are supporting factory farms by giving these fast food places your money. So heck you might as well eat the crap then. The best way to stand up for animal rights is not to give mcdonalds your money. And if your so concerned about where your food comes from then go to a farmers market and buy local. At least then you would be supporting something good...your own community.
I know options can sometimes be tough and maybe I am fortunate to live in such a vegan friendly area here in Portland, OR but just decide your options carefully.

If more vegans went to fast food and other restaurants and requested low fat vegan items, more places would offer them. If the demand is there, they'll accommodate it, after all, the only reason these places exist is to make money. So for those of you berating vegans for eating fast food, get off your high horse and go out and change the world!

Okay so I am tired of the Veganazis...we aren't going to make an impact on the food industry by ignoring the corporations that sale animal based products. By buying from these establishments you effectively say I am one of a large group of people that would prefer more health and Vegan options. The more one patronizes these establishments the more the CEO's are going to add more healthy and Vegan options.
Being Vegan is subjective. For one person it is abstaining from animal products (while ignoring the fact that soy production, corn production, or wheat production kills animals and destroys the environment just as much). For other people being Vegan is about making health choices. For some being Vegan is a way to stick it to factory farming practices (which are here to stay...sadly...we can only emphasize more responsible farming).
I have a problem with anyone saying being Vegan is this or that. It sounds cultish and turns people off. I would much prefer a world in which we eat food derived exclusively from organic vegetables but it isn't going to happen by being fascist about it. Its about understanding we are individuals and some of us would prefer options that don't require tons of preparation or time. Yep some of us were reared on American cuisine and appreciate when a restaurant finds ways (even if inadvertently) to offer Vegan items.
All right soapbox is being pushed back under desk.

This is great for a list of places to eat overall but as mentioned many times over but, are the ingredients they use at every one of these places, organic? As a vegan is this just something one should compromise on if they don't use organic products, or should this list as a whole be thrown out if one were to not compromise for the true practice and overall well being of his/her health?

Wilson, Hurdle ejected after lefty hits LA's Turner
PITTSBURGH -- Justin Wilson admitted he expected a reaction from the home-plate umpire after his second pitch of the seventh inning had bounced off Justin Turner's left elbow.
Only, the Pittsburgh left-hander anticipated a warning from Toby Basner -- not an ejection.View Full Game Coverage
PITTSBURGH -- Justin Wilson admitted he expected a reaction from the home-plate umpire after his second pitch of the seventh inning had bounced off Justin Turner's left elbow.
Only, the Pittsburgh left-hander anticipated a warning from Toby Basner -- not an ejection.View Full Game Coverage
"I was more surprised that there wasn't a warning given," said Wilson, whose first pitch to Turner was also inside.
He was not alone. Even Los Angeles Dodgers manager Don Mattingly considered the ejection unwarranted, implying Basner had fanned on baseball's timeless retribution process.
Wilson's pitch on Turner had followed soon after Pirates outfielder Andrew McCutchen had been drilled.
"We all understood what happened," said Mattingly. "The only guy that didn't was the plate umpire. He could have given him a warning."
"But it's the umpire's decision," Wilson said, "and you can't fight it once it's made."
Bucs manager Clint Hurdle tried. The only place it got him was into his office, prematurely, drawing his own ejection from crew chief Jeff Nelson for vociferously protesting Basner's quick thumb.
Even more than an hour later, following the Pirates' 12-7 victory, Hurdle was still steamed by the events. He discussed them with outward calm, yet clearly was not pleased that the Dodgers got in a free shot on McCutchen. The Pirates skipper was not arguing that McCutchen had been hit intentionally -- only that his circumstances were more conducive toward a judgment of intent.
"The umpire's job is to judge intent. There's a mound visit with McCutchen at the plate," said Hurdle, setting the stage for Jamey Wright's pitch with two on and two outs in the sixth, "and a ball's thrown upper body, hits him on the back of the shoulder, and there was no intent judged there.
"Wilson's trying to pitch hard in. He always pitches hard in. The judgment was that was intentional. They didn't want to [deal with a warning], just threw him out."
Wilson had just entered the game, taking over for starter Vance Worley with the Bucs ahead, 8-4. Jared Hughes replaced Wilson, and promptly surrendered a two-run homer to the first batter he faced, lefty-hitting Adrian Gonzalez. Hughes then retired the next three men, keeping intact the Bucs' usual end-game relief order.
"Yeah, absolutely [that was big], to get through that inning and we still had the lead," Wilson said. "The team won the game, and that's the biggest thing we're trying to do here."
The ejection was the fourth of the season for Hurdle, who last year tied for the Major League lead in that department with six.
As angered as Hurdle was in the top of the seventh, the 30,629 fans in PNC Park sounded equally irate in the bottom of the inning when Wright plunked another Pirates player, Russell Martin, without any consequence. The game also proceeded without any further incidents, other than the nonstop booing from the Pirates faithful.

"The Burgess Boys" (Random House), by Elizabeth Strout
Jim and Bob Burgess, the brothers who are the title characters of Elizabeth Strout's new novel, "The Burgess Boys," grew up fatherless in a small Maine town after an accident in the family car when they were young.
They were smart, though, and became lawyers in New York City. Now Jim, at 55, is a high-powered corporate attorney who once gained national media attention. Bob, at 51, is a legal aid lawyer with a more modest sense of himself. As the novel unfolds, they are drawn back to their hometown, revisiting old scars while struggling with a new shock to the family psyche.
This is Strout's first book since her 2009 Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, "Olive Kitteridge."
"Olive Kitteridge" is built on the scaffolding of separate short stories that, to lesser or greater degrees, involve the title character, a teacher in a coastal Maine town. "The Burgess Boys" follows a more traditional, more sweeping novelistic track, with the marital discord and conflicted feelings of the Burgess brothers set around their attempts to help a young nephew avoid jail.
Like Olive, who can be stern and not necessarily likable, the Burgess brothers are not depicted in a wholly agreeable light but become unforgettably alive to the reader. They have their foibles from the start: Bob, who is divorced and a bit sloppy, drinks and worries too much; Jim, married to a discontented heiress, is self-absorbed and belittles Bob, whom he calls "slob-dog."
Their sister, Bob's twin Susan, also divorced, lives in a cold, quiet house in Maine with her friendless teenage son, Zach - the nephew who lands in serious legal trouble, even facing a possible hate crime charge, after throwing a frozen pig's head into the mosque of Somali immigrants.
The cultural chasm between white Maine locals and dark-skinned Muslims, along with efforts by both sides to bridge the distance, is a developing element throughout the book. But the distance between Bob and Jim - painfully wide at times, lovingly close as well and turning on "a terrible secret" from childhood - gives the novel a level of intrigue and human depth with lasting impact.
Strout's writing style is all her own, at times almost effortlessly fluid, with superbly rendered dialogue, sudden and unexpected bolts of humor and, just as a scene seems to be low-key, carried away by startling riffs of gripping emotion.
Many sections open with descriptions of sunlight or the deepening darkness of nightfall, as if to set the scene with a prose painting of the surroundings. These invariably are keen, lovely lines, such as this one describing the bustling Park Slope neighborhood in Brooklyn where Jim and Bob settled: "The autumn clouds, magnificent in their variegated darkness, were being spread apart by the wind, and great streaks of sunshine splashed down on the buildings on Seventh Avenue."
It's not clear why the narrator is a woman from the Burgess hometown in Maine, the fictional Shirley Falls, who was younger than the brothers but heard gossip about the childhood accident that killed their father. When she decides to write their story, even her mother voices doubt: "You don't know them," she said. "Nobody ever knows anyone."
Maybe so. But Strout knows and vividly evokes the territory of Maine and New York City, her characters, their inner lives and fears and - beyond the saga of a family in crisis - the healing power of mercy.

Lockyer, 41, the estranged wife of state Treasurer Bill Lockyer, first sought a court order to keep Stephen Chikhani away from her and her family in May, a few weeks after she resigned her supervisorial seat.
Earlier this year, Lockyer had claimed Chikhani attacked her Feb. 3 in a Newark hotel room, but the state Justice Department investigated and declined to charge him with any crime. Chikhani, 36, of San Jose, has denied stalking, bothering or wanting anything more to do with Lockyer, though he has made inquiries about selling sex tapes he made with her.
The order was modified and reissued in August, a few weeks before she was arrested in Orange County on felony methamphetamine and misdemeanor child-abuse and endangerment charges. A pretrial hearing is scheduled for March 5.
Mark Ressa, Lockyer's civil attorney, said an Alameda County Superior Court judge on Thursday decided there's no point in extending the temporary restraining order if Lockyer isn't in town and doesn't intend to seek further extensions when she returns. She could always file for a new order if necessary, he noted.
"Hopefully she's moving on with her life and Steve is moving on with his and we can put this matter behind us," Ressa said. "Nadia will ultimately make that choice; we'll see what happens."
Lockyer went into National Therapeutic Services' residential drug-treatment program in Newport Beach on Aug. 31, Ressa said. He talked with program administrators this week, and they said they expect she'll stay for the usual 180 days, meaning she'll get out in early February.
Police went to the home where Lockyer and her 9-year-old son, Diego, were staying on Aug. 28 after a caller tipped them that she might have drugs there, prosecutors said in September. Officers found a tube of aluminum foil with a burned end, and when they met Lockyer later that day she showed signs of being under the influence of drugs.
She was arrested and charged with felony methamphetamine possession and three misdemeanors: being under the influence of a controlled substance, possession of drug paraphernalia, and child abuse and endangerment.
Bill Lockyer, 71, filed for divorce in July, citing "irreconcilable differences" and seeking joint physical and legal custody of their son. After Nadia Lockyer's arrest, a judge ruled she could see their son but only under her estranged husband's supervision. The boy is living with his father in Hayward while his mother undergoes treatment.

CD version, full colour digipak, 300 copies.
Tropic is a reworking of lost, forgotten and unreleased O Yuki Conjugate (OYC) tracks recorded in London in 1994-95, with processing and post-rationalisation completed during 2015-16. The album explores a sonic territory area OYC have christened dirty ambient multi layered, hyper textural and distinctly gritty. Release on limited edition vinyl album and CD format, Tropic comprises two
24-minute tracks: The Fate of Less Valuable Animals and Darkness was Here Yesterday. It is intended as a companion album to the bands Equator release from the mid 1990s.
All Tropic tracks written by A.Hulme, R.Horberry, M. McGeorge, P. A. Woodhead and D. Mudford, with saxophone provided by J. Gardiner. Tropics sleeve is designed by Adrian Harrison and features an original painting by actor Frederick Schimmelschmidt. The album was mastered by Detlef Funder (Konrad Kraft).
About O Yuki Conjugate
Formed in Nottingham in 1982 on the wave of post-industrial music that emerged out of Post Punk, OYC are now in their 35th year and 4th incarnation, based around core members Andrew Hulme and Roger Horberry. OYC forged their own path away from their early industrial and electronic influences to incorporate the then-unfashionable ambient music into their own sound. Largely ignored in the UK, they found audiences in the US and Europe more receptive. OYC have released eight albums of difficult ambient-influenced music that together have earned them literally hundreds of pounds:
Scene in Mirage 1984, Into Dark Water 1987, Peyote 1991, Equator 1995, Primitive 1996, The Euphoria of Disobedience 2006, OYC 25 2009, Ambiguism 2010 (vinyl box set retrospective). Full discography:
As well as completing Tropic, OYC recently worked with US filmmaking group Lullskull to provide a soundtrack for their web series Northbound, as well as contributing two tracks to Close to the Noise Floor, a four-disc box set compilation of pioneering early 80's electronica released by Cherry Red Records.

Francesco Molinari claimed a stunning wire-to-wire victory at the World Golf Championships – HSBC Champions following a titanic battle with World Number One Lee Westwood.
Molinari - who claimed his only previous European Tour win at the 2006 Italian Open - carded a final round 67 to retain the one-shot lead he took into the final round at Sheshan International GC.
Westwood produced a superb display throughout the week to illustrate why he has moved to the top of the Official World Golf Rankings.
But Molinari - who turns 28 on Monday - kept him at bay to secure the perfect early birthday present.
"It feels really special right now," said the Italian. "I'm obviously amazed with the way I played and, you know, to have the number one player in the world trailing you by one shot, it's not easy.
"In a sense I feel for Lee because he probably deserved to win the tournament as well.
"I've been in his position a few times so I know it's not easy, but finally it was my time.
"It's definitely the best I've putted and chipped and I think that was the difference compared to the many second places I've had in the past.
"It was just the perfect week."
Molinari's win continues a wonderful season for Italian golf.
His brother Edoardo claimed victories at The Barclays Scottish Open and Johnnie Walker Championship at Gleneagles, while 17 year old Matteo Manassero triumphed at the CASTELLÓ MASTERS Costa Azahar last month.
"It keeps getting better and better," said Molinari. "I don't know where we are going to go from here.
"It's great to have three European Tour winners in the same season and it's something no-one could have expected."
Westwood was keen to take the positives from a week in which he cemented his position as World Number One.
"There's not really any negatives other than the fact I didn't win the tournament," he said. "I finished 18 under par, nine clear of third, had only two bogeys on the week.
"Sometimes somebody just plays a bit better and that's what Francesco did.
"He's renowned for his long game, but his short game was there, certainly over the weekend when we played together.
"The greens he missed, he chipped it up and he's renowned for struggling on the shorter putts, but other than one today he was flawless over the last two days.
"I thought he deserved to win. But it's been a very good week and I've played well so I'm pleased."
Molinari was the first to strike on Sunday morning, with a birdie at the second taking him two clear of Westwood.
The leading duo matched each other shot for shot for the remainder of the front nine, picking up birdies at the third, fifth and eighth holes, before Westwood reduced his arrears with a three at the tenth.
Molinari spurned an opportunity to extend his lead at the par five 14th when he missed a short putt for a four.
The 15th also passed by without a change to either man's score, although Westwood was forced to hole a superb 12 footer to salvage his par.
Molinari was to pull clear again at the next - a short par four - after Westwood ran into trouble attempting to drive the green.
The Englishman was left with a treacherous pitch over a greenside bunker and had to settle for a par. Molinari, meanwhile, opted to lay up with his tee shot and the move paid off as a superb wedge set up a simple birdie chance, which he duly converted.
Westwood looked set to slip further back at the par three 17th after finding the sand, but he once again showed his mettle with a gutsy par putt to remain two behind.
He then found the green in two at 18 to increase the pressure on Molinari, but was unable to sink his eagle putt.
Richie Ramsay and Luke Donald shared third place on nine under, the former securing his place in the Dubai World Championship presented by DP World as a result.
Ramsay said: "I've shown everyone that I can compete on a very tough golf course that's playing quite long so it's great to see that I can do that.
I knew one good finish would get me into the Race to Dubai and with the prize fund here and the calibre of players the one place I wanted it was here.
"The plan has worked out fantastically well."
The top five comprised entirely of European Tour members, with Northern Ireland's Rory McIlroy firing seven birdies in a closing 67 to finish a shot behind Ramsay and Donald.
