What ingredients make a cereal not vegan?
There are several non vegan ingredients to watch out for. As long as it doesn’t contain any of these ingredients, it will be vegan.
Gelatin
According to PETA, Gelatin is a protein obtained by boiling skin, tendons, ligaments, and/or bones with water. It is usually obtained from cows or pigs.

Vitamin A
Vitamin A comes in two forms, which are preformed and proform. “Preformed Vitamin A exists only in animal productsâ€. Proform Vitamin A comes from plants.
Vitamin D or D3
I put Vitamin D because cereal companies aren’t disclosing which type of Vitamin D they are using. Vitamin D3 is not always vegan. It comes from lanolin (wax secreted by the sebaceous glands of wool-bearing animals), fish, fish oil, liver, butter, dietary supplements, and egg yolks.
However, there is a vegan version of Vitamin D3, which you can get here. It comes from lichen, which is “a composite organism consisting of a fungus and an algae.†Read more about lichen here.
Molasses
Molasses is typically vegan, but isn’t always. Learn more about why molasses isn’t vegan here.
Vitamin B12
According to The National Institutes of Health, this vitamin “naturally found in animal products, including fish, meat, poultry, eggs, milk, and milk products.”
Honey
Honey is made by bees for bees. Learn more about why vegans don’t eat honey here.
Dairy
If you see milk or whey, then this cereal isn’t vegan.

Popular vegan cereal questions
Sadly, Cheerio’s are not vegan. The vitamin D in them comes from wool. There are tons of other vegan cereal options though.
Kellogg’s Rice Krispies are not vegan because of the Vitamin D3 that is in them. Some brands that have vegan alternatives are Nature’s Path, Mom’s Best Cereals, Arrowhead Mills, and Barbara’s Organics.
There are types of raisin bran that are vegan, but the Kellogg’s brand is not as it has ingredients derived from animals. The brands that have a vegan raisin bran are Nature’s Path, Cascadian Farm, and Mom’s Best Cereals.
As you can see there are lots of vegan cereals to choose from. Which of these are your favorite?
