    Read labels carefully. Some products contain additives such as carrageenan, which is derived from red algae and contains alpha-gal.

    Alpha-gal is also found in medications and skincare products. This is dangerous, and not easily solved by simply going vegan.

    Having food allergies is exhausting and anxiety-inducing. Deep diving into every single label, fearing cross contamination and being on edge upon stepping outside your bubble or risking a slip up sucks.

    Can we go back to guilting people into more sustainable habits instead of celebrating the increased risk of anaphylaxis?

      Maybe if guilting people worked better, the globe wouldn’t be warming so much and the ticks wouldn’t be spreading so much.

      We’ll go back to guilting when y’all start caring about the animal that had its life taken for your pleasure.
