An occasional blog listing the creatures that live in the arable crop, and are killed accidentally, or have to be killed, during the production of wheat...which makes bread...which is labelled 'suitable for vegetarians'. Like the poor slugs in this picture, dying a long slow death due to dehydration after ingesting the blue pellets of metaldehyde. Good thing they can't scream; no-one in the countryside would sleep.

Dead animals in the vegan cooking oil.
We've been busy spraying the Oilseed Rape with this insecticide today. If you read the label, you'll see a list of animals that we will have killed in the process.
But here's a quote from the Vegetarian Times, 7th November 2011:
"Though it's somewhat processed, we use canola [OSR] as one of our staple oils, specifically for frying and some baking," says Elliott Prag, a frequent VT contributor as well as a chef and instructor at the Natural Gourmet Institute in New York. "It's neutral in flavor, color, and aroma; has a high smoke point; and is extremely versatile."
