The Altoids and the Plastic bags were news to me.
Are animal ingredients lurking in everything? Sure seems like it. Here are 12 things you might have thought were animal and cruelty-free, but think again.

I really dislike the article. It starts off with:
"It’s hard to stick to a vegan lifestyle. It can be easy to be foiled by ingredients that just slip right by you, and these aren’t just in food."
The article is pushing the BS idea that if you accidentally eat/use a little bit of animal ingredient, then you're not sticking to a vegan lifestyle.
It's impossible to avoid every single milligram of animal material! Being 99% vegan is more than enough to help the animals.
The "it's hard to stick to a vegan lifestyle" claim is BS, too. In California, you can get veg burgers at any major supermarket, and at some major fast food restaurants. My regular supermarket carries 4 different types of vegan milk!
