I'm very excited to release a new free tool to the public allowing you not only to verify alcohols, products, ingredients, and retailers as vegan/non-vegan or tested/not tested on animals but collaborate in continuing the size of this vast database the more people use it.

Verify any product, ingredient, alcohol, or storefront as vegan/no animal testing

The beauty of this tool is simplicity.  In any browser, simply type "vegan.fm/" before the ingredient/alcohol/product/retailer to be taken to a page detailing what is known about that topic.  At that point, you have the option to edit the entry similar to how Wikipedia articles are edited and maintained by a community.  If a page does not exist for your query, you have the option of creating the page yourself adding whatever you know about the product so others may develop your stub.

Otherwise, to browse listings head to Vegan.FM/isitvegan

Join in

Over time, stores change their policies, food producers change their sources.  It's important visitors chime in on what they've found of a product or add more detail to what's already there (most entries simply say "This ingredient is vegan/not vegan" at the moment) so spread the word of this tool to your vegan pals.  You can start by retweeting this message by clicking here.
