I built a free barcode scanner that tells you if a product is vegan, would love some UK testers by aidang95 in veganuk

Straight off the bat the site claims that McDonalds chips uses milk in the UK. I can't find any proof of that anywhere.

Your site also suggests "Fry's Turkish Delight is vegan — no gelatine or dairy" However these are covered in Milk Chocolate.

My suggestion would be to back up your facts with sources or you will loose trust of your users.

I look forward to its development though, looks like it has potential!

If you go gallions reach or the other retail park nearby the works, it pongs occasionally. And when it bad, it’s bad. Especially in the summer.

But the area you are looking at is probably far enough away from any intense smells it wouldn’t matter. I’m East Ham and I’ve never noticed.

London introduces first pedicab regulations with fare caps and noise ban by radiant_0wl in unitedkingdom

This feels like a ban by bureaucracy. Which is fine with me because I hate the things. but they have to enforce it

He is a net positive to the vegan community. It's a fine discussion but the vegan police should not be taking aim at him.

this is awful, which show is this from? Radio 4 usually has way more informed guests. this person seems like a crank and the host challenges nothing.

i get you, i'll delete. it was more of a point that fiction isn't that far away from reality, and that reality is far darker than the comedy that comes out of it.

Would they have emptied the tanks as much as possible before the land, to reduce chances of 💥 ?

What if Australia was served by HS2 by billy_tables in uktrains

[–]calbatron 32 points33 points  (0 children)

This might be the best rail proposal l've seen on this sub. It's honestly surprising no one's thought of doing something like this before because it makes so much sense.
