Some of them contain egg or egg whites. If you're ever in NYC go to May Wah on Hester street and ask for help. They'll make sure you don't get anything that isn't vegan. And they have about a million products. (Well, almost).<br /><br />Marty from <br />Marty's Flying Vegan Review.<br /><br />PS When I get into Chicago I usually am at Midway. Any vegan suggestions in that neighborhood would be greatly appreciated as I can't always make it into the city. Chicago does have some amazing vegan options though, especially 2 soul vegan places on the south side.Martyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14633111717619300610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7729886623213766434.post-18874359213277349442011-12-10T19:04:12.985-06:002011-12-10T19:04:12.985-06:00Of course!
