We just got...Oh,..I'm so glad you posted this. We just got our first Trader Joe's here, it's about 30-40 minutes from our house, so we don't just pop in all the time like we would if it were closer. And what really sucks is that because it's the first and the only one anywhere near, it is always super packed inside with longs lines, and the shelves are literally half empty EVERY time we go. I've been anxiously waiting to see what they'd get in for Fall, but didn't really want to waste a trip down there for nothing to even be out yet, or for everything to be out of stock already. Now I have a list and will make the pilgrimage...maybe tomorrow even. I'd really love to try that pumpkin body butter too...but as busy as our store is, I bet it's sold out already if they got it in earlier this week. Maybe I can have my friend who lives in Laguna Beach, CA check hers and see if they have it, and if so pick me up a tub. Thanks again for all the info!

I understand where you are coming from, ...Hi there! I understand where you are coming from, but for me veganism is more about intent and the bigger picture rather than personal purity. Unfortunately, we don't live in a vegan world and will run into instances where there may or may not be trace amounts of animal ingredients in food and products. This is why I strongly believe in the 99.9% vegan rule and try not to stress too much about the possibility of small traces of animal ingredients. However, it is all about where you want to draw the line, so I totally get if you'd rather avoid these due to the sugar. FYI - enzymes are in reference to the yeast, and are totally vegan, so you're safe there. ;) Sarah E.

I had my husband pick some up and besides the absence of the "V" on the package, the sugar is probably not vegan, and though it mentions the mono and di-glycerides are vegetable, it does just say "enzymes" and not vegetable enzymes. So I'll be returning the package :o(Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7369108418314901087.post-46683996165319826412014-09-24T11:26:43.036-07:002014-09-24T11:26:43.036-07:00Cheers, I need some organic pumpkin, been waiting ...Cheers, I need some organic pumpkin, been waiting since last year!brian213https://www.blogger.com/profile/11814163213533947861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7369108418314901087.post-15374041637718036272014-09-22T19:57:59.375-07:002014-09-22T19:57:59.375-07:00I bet those pumpkin rolls are goooooood!I bet those pumpkin rolls are goooooood!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06721618593816063122noreply@blogger.com
