because I use it in my garden? or where ever else my fruits, vegetables, and plants come from.
Being vegan is pointless then, if you are doing it for moral reasons. I'm sure lots of animals are killed brutally that are used in common day things that vegans say it's okay to use? Vegans are just like Christians, cherry- picking!
 
not at all

animal products are in so many things vegans can't avoid them all.

for example do you go to the cinema?
animal products are one of the things in film
 
Yup most are made from fish/animal bones and blood- eugh!!!! I used to work in a hardware store and hated stacking them because they stink! However they did sell organic ones which are made entirely out of plant based materials. Look on the back of the pack, it will tell you the ingredients. It would be a bit strange if you don't eat any animal products, presumably don't wear them so why would you scatter them over your plants? And plus the plant ones smell nicer, there was an orange one made from orange tree leaves and smelt of orange, much nicer then animal blood!
 
You're not a vegan at all; you posted this question earlier today:

This, my friend, is called trolling. You have joined those sad and lonely few who have nothing better to do - no better way to spend their weekends - that to fret and obsess about other people's diets and people who are different to them.

I feel sorry for you
 
No, It does not make you a bad vegan it just says that you are not as strict as a vegan as other people may be.
 
You can get organic plant based compost to ferti;ize your garden or make your own from lawn clipping and such. Ammendments for potassium and phophorus are plant and sea based. I'd rather see you use cow manure than the chemicals that are derived from petrochemicals. Nothing live or living or heathful about that. Most commercial vegetable farms are sterile petri dishes that they keep throwing chemicals at to keep the crops going. Not an earth worm for miles.
