    Bees produce honey. Chickens produce eggs. Can’t eat eggs. Can’t eat honey.

    Idk I’m not a vegan either.

      Chickens. Google what happens to male egg-laying chickens and you probably can figure out why it’s not vegan.

      Usually things aren’t vegan due to the horrors of factory farming practices, even before any potential death occurs.

        I mean anything commercial comes out to be pretty inhumane. They cut off the queens bees wings in commercial honey harvesting.

        I guess bees aren’t as animal as chickens are?

          They are, which is why honey isn’t vegan, and you brought a very good argument for that yourself, namely that the industrial process behind it all tends to be quite brutal.
