Cruel vegetarians

Wow! How truly exciting to read: “Israeli startup produces vegan milk from cow’s milk” (June 18).

I never fail to be astonished at all the vegetarians who never make the humane leap to going vegan. For whatever reason, they have chosen to be vegetarian (health. environment, compassion for animals). Continuing to subsidize the dairy industries (arguably the cruelest) makes a mockery of this lifestyle. Dairy cows lead the saddest lives that mankind could inflict upon sentient beings.

Although there are already a plethora of delicious vegan options for milk, butter, cheeses and ice-creams, it is my fervent hope that Imagindairy will be the final catalyst for a vegan world.

So proud that it is, once again, Israeli ingenuity and compassion leading the way.
