I'm sorry for cluttering up the other thread! Moving my discussion from there to here, but Kim has already taken care of it! Thanks!

"Kim, the recognized symbol for vegan is V in a circle. I wonder if mf: meat free would be more appropriate for vegetarian? BTW, vegetarians don't eat fish - nothing with a face!

Technically I shouldn't say I eat a vegan diet because I do consume honey. Honey is an animal product, and therefore isn't vegan. So a recipe with honey should not be labeled vegan (I just went back and changed one of mine to reflect this - you'd think I'd know better! ).

As for me, I don't know all the rules of SCD, so I will just leave that designation off any recipes I post!"

Dear Susan
Thank You for writing to us! Yes, every batch of our Ghee is tested
in an FDA certified lab to insure that it is lactose and casein
free....Therefore we can put on our label that our Ghee is,indeed, lactose and casein free-it is fine for people with even the most severe dairy allergies.
Happy Cooking! Kathy-Purity Farms, Inc.
