Gummy Candies

Gummy candies might seem like an obvious vegan item, but believe it or not, they’re chock full of animal products. The gelatin used to give them their classic chewy consistency is produced with animal collagen.

Worcestershire Sauce

Worcestershire sauce might be a tangy, delicious flavor bomb, but unless you buy a vegan version, it contains anchovies. This means that if you’re following a vegan diet, you’ll need to find a special version in order to enjoy it.

Chocolate

It might seem obvious after thinking about it for a moment, but many people forget that chocolate technically isn’t vegan. Milk is used in the production of chocolate products, which means that it does contain an animal product.

Figs

Now, this is just downright strange. Figs are a fruit, yes, but they often contain wasps. How is this possible? Well, female wasps often lay their eggs inside of these fruits, and they often can’t escape. This means that they die and decompose inside of figs, meaning that they often aren’t vegan.

The classic combination of figs and cheese work amazingly well in this dish.

First, heat up some fig jam or preserves in the microwave just for 30 seconds to loosen it up.

In the meantime, chop up any nights you like, such as walnuts, almonds, or pistachios.

Then, cut up the figs, either dried or fresh and combine them with nuts. Use half of the warmed jam to mix in with the figs and nuts.

Put the brie in an oven safe dish or a cast iron pan. Spread the other half of the jam on the brie and then cover it with the nuts and figs.

Bake at 375F degrees for 10 minutes and enjoy!
