Tell anyone that doesn't want one to send it to me.

They've already managed to get 1000 names on a petition to get rid of them.
That should do it

Quite a lot different really, biting into animal fat covered things or having a trace of some vague animal product in your wallet.

This, I think, is the VERY VERY NSFW, appropriate response to the petition signers. https://youtu.be/MHlUgxGRReM

Don't lick them.
Don't eat them.
You'll be fine.

[Smiler.]

Don't know what all the fuss is about, just pay the sackcloth wearing Gaia worshipping nut-munchers in fking carrots.

Or even simpler, just tell them to fk-off.

What Vegans?

I agree

I'm off into town later with a big placard exposing this horrifying truth, along with a special receptacle (my wallet) into which affronted veggies can dispose of their offending notes.

Fat you say, well here's hoping I gain more than a few pounds.

A general statement that can be made at any time.

What the vegans/professionally offended?

[alfie2244]

No one mention cosmetics

[Moonhawk]

I'll happily take them off their hands for a small fee (say £5 per disposal)

[Mr Tracy]

Speaking as a Veggie, not sure I am outraged as such about this revelation, maybe slightly surprised. I touch stuff all day that may contain animal bits, but i tend to refrain from putting them in my mouth.

It took me about two minutes googling to confirm tallow is the regular anti-static agent used to stop polymer pellets binding together.

What will these idiots wear on their feet?
