Vegan Sodas
We ran 378 sodas through our vegan rules: 24 pass, 12 need a label check, and 29 don't make it.
Nearly everything carbonated passes. The short list of exceptions: drinks coloured with E120, which is made from insects, honey-sweetened blends, and a few vitamin drinks fortified with animal-sourced D3. If a red drink sits in the uncertain column, the dye is usually why.
