Vegan Family Living Does Not Advocate Consumption of Dairy Foods

In response to a comment about my suggesting that one use butter on their vegetables or milk in a recipe, I want to clarify.

Most vegans understand that there is a vegan version of butter and milk. Therefore I do not always use the terms “vegan” or “soy”. Vegan Family Living does not advocate or suggest that one use any dairy product for consumption. We understand the health issues associated with dairy intake.
