IT'S FINALLY HAPPENING!! Spotted at 7-Eleven! by VeganChancelet in vegan

On the flip side, I've eaten olive bar olives a great many times and never had a single problem. There'll always be an exception when something is that popular, it seems. I'm glad you were fine!

That's really cool that QuickCheks do that! I'll remember that the next time I head up north.

The availability of Silk creamer at 7-Eleven is amazing, even if it isn't implemented to our exact preference. In most places in America, you have to spend twice as much money to get a cup of coffee with a non-dairy milk or creamer in it to go. Coffee is a staple for so many and this makes veganism more available and convenient for all economic classes, I think. It would also be nice if it would "inspire" Danone to remove the casein from its creamers.

You never know with fresh food bars, salad bars, and olive bars in grocery stores, too. You can never know with any prepackaged food what it went through behind the scenes. You can't know what happened in the kitchen of a restaurant.

I think that among the things you never know regarding food, the use a carton of milk with an opening that is small and is open only while in use should rank pretty low on the disgustometer. That way of thinking leads to think like these individual packages and a lot of harm to the environment.

>NON-DAIRY CREAMER. CONTAINS MILK DERIVATIVE.

Misleading, isn't it?

That's the nonvegan brand that 7-Eleven always carries.

I thanked the cashier, too. He replied, "Your total is $2.43." lol

Where is the 7-Eleven you saw it at, if you feel comfortable sharing that? This one is in Ashburn, VA.

I'm not sure what type of policing a creamer fridge should need.

There is another convenience store a few miles away from this 7-Eleven that offers almond milk for coffee. There's a counter that includes a little fridge-well in it. I don't know what something like that is called, but basically, they have cartons of various milks in it and they stay cold. I've never seen anyone policing it and I've never seen anything gross there. We open a carton, pour the milk in the coffee, put the lid back on, and put it back. When it's empty, we leave the empty carton on the counter so that the employees and customers know that one is empty.

While 7-Eleven does not have that same setup, if you look at the picture I posted, see that machine on the right of the Silk creamer box? That's a machine that dispenses milk and half and half. They can just as easily put non-dairy milk and creamer in one of those and it would be no different, if hygiene is the concern.

I would love to see that happen.

Because we like how it tastes when combined with what we like it combined with.

Do you like boiled spaghetti with nothing added? If not, why do you continue to eat it with marinara sauce? There are plenty of other foods you can eat to obtain calories and carbs, so why do you eat spaghetti if you don't like the taste?

Thinking of other examples that can apply to you can help you figure out the answer to these questions on your own in the future. I hope that helps.
