No, but see, what if a person who isn't vegan accidentally eats some vegan food and likes it?

Sometimes creators can be wrong... Hello Kitty is obviously either a cat or a cat person not a human girl, GIF is not pronounced like the U.S. peanut butter brand, and Han shot first.

When the Daily Mail says anybody 'faces fierce backlash', they mean a fierce backlash that they're about to stir up.

It's a recurring thing.

Right wing astroturfing groups keep trying to get control of the national trust.

If it's not vegan food, they're complaining about pride, or people explaining where all the money for these big country houses came from.

The group's actually run out of the same place as a Tory think-tank. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2024/jan/28/national-trust-captured-by-well-funded-fake-grassroots-group-restore-trust

If my coffee had to be vegan, I would be kinda upset because it means I couldn't have any dairy cream in it.

If my coffee couldn't be vegan (even served black), I would be even more upset because WTF would they be doing to it to make it inherently not-vegan‽

Yeah, they usually contain gelatin, which is extracted from animal skins and bones.

Vegan gelling agents are available (and in fact, marshmallows originally used marshmallow roots), but I guess, gelatin is just so cheap, because it's a waste product from animal slaughter.

Same with most bread, beer, wine, apple juice, potato chips and white sugar.

I knew about the others, but what about bread and potato chips is not vegan?

Bread often contains L-Cysteine, made from hog hair or poultry feathers, as a baking aid. It is labelled as food additive E920.
Potato chips often contain whey powder, and some aromas contain animal products even if you wouldn't expect it.

No more bread rolls and fruit! Unless they're covered in butter! YES, the fruit, too!

Daily Mail always be capitalizing words in they titles like they never heard of a style guide or proper grammar, or as I like to call it, "Props, Gram"
