Vegans Furious after Vegan Magazine VegNews Admits to Using Picture of Meat for Recipes
Vegans are a generally peaceful bunch. But that doesn’t mean you can just walk all over them.
VegNews, a vegan magazine and website, was shamed last week after a vegan blog QuarryGirl.com revealed that the magazine’s editorial staff regularly used images of MEAT and DAIRY to accompany vegan recipes and articles.
Needless to say, this did not go over well at all with the vegans who regularly read and paid for the magazine. They were furious!

VegNews’ publisher Joseph Connelly apologized and said the practice would be discontinued.
