   I wonder how !vegan alcohol consumption compares with non-vegan alcohol consumption.

     I understand how you interpreted my intrigue the way you did. I meant to place emphasis on how alcohol is consumed in both #vegan and #non-vegan populations and these rates compare.

     My expectation is that #vegans consume less alcohol on average than non-vegans.

     I expect that #vegans abstain from alcohol for reasons unrelated to alcohol.

     Maybe I should have said, "unrelated to #veganism"

     @benfell you are thinking of gelatin used to "clear" beer and wine. made from skin and bones. but i'm not sure about kidneys.

     There should be a "some" in my expectation. I perceive an overlap of vegan and healthful in some of the vegans I know. Alcohol is often portrayed as unhealthy, so they abstain.

     I stumbled upon Barnivore when I was looking around. I had no idea what some distillers are doing.

     I corrected that to "unrelated to #veganism", which is still confusing. The idea is that alcohol doesn't violate vegan.

     @tuttle @zoowar Really it's been interesting to follow, could not understand why vegans would not take alcohol, yeast are fungi, now i see.
