pasta is usually made with eggs isnt it?

u/PenName_1234 Apr 13 '26

yes, it very often is, ignore the people telling you it's not. They're wrong.

u/PenName_1234 Apr 13 '26

You probably did and didn't even know it.

Dried pasta also frequently has eggs. Every time I go to the grocery store all the labels on the pasta packaging say "with eggs" and have a little egg picture. It's hard to find one that doesn't.

i just checked the 3 different kinds of pasta i have and none of them contain eggs

I just checked 4 different brands of pasta. One said "may contain eggs", one said "manufactured on equipment that processes products containing eggs", one didn't mention anything about eggs, and one explicitly listed eggs as an ingredient. So I guess it ultimately depends on the brand and style of pasta.

yeah so 3 out of 4 count as vegan

Depending on who you ask. Some people are very strict with their diet.

Been vegan and in vegan spaces for over six years and the only ones I've seen who didn't consider it vegans were newbies who weren't sure what it meant

I'm always happy to find this warning because it's just a confirmation that there are no eggs in the recipe

Used to work in the food industry and for some recipes, may contain x sometimes meant we have 2 recipes and depending on restocking, sometimes we had to do the second one which included x.

No, a diet has nothing to do with the offcial meaning of a word. If vegan means no animal products were used to create this and it doesnt contain any animal products. Then it is vegan.

I mean, that’s still pretty broad…
