I think that depends on how the “animal crackers” were prepared. The could, of course, be fried, although the best alternative would be to be ‘baked’. However, one might want to be sure that when they are baked, that their coating on the pan did not consist of animal fat.

With regards to the follow up question, if there were a lack of “hypothetical” questions, one might not be able to understand the ‘true’ meaning of each and every word posed in a question.

Even still, it helps to know how those words are universally accepted when strung together.

To answer you question: no… and yes. The vegetarian is probably not allowed to eat the animal crackers (depending upon type of vegan) until they determine that they were prepared in a manner consistent with their beliefs. Should they find the crackers are suitable, then ‘yes’, they are permitted to do as they will.

There is alot of products that contain lard so if you try to avoid it all you will only be vegetables and no snacks what so ever. So it’s up to you weather you really are a vegetarian or you are willing to endulge yourself in the delights of animal crackers.

If the crackers had no lard, etc., then yes. They aren’t real animals.
If there were no hypothetical questions, people would be forced to pretend their friends had the problems they asked hypothetical questions about!

Animal crackers, are crackers. I do not believe they contain lard. They are merely in the shape of animals. So that is up to you to decide.

Sure. A “vegan” is someone that doesn’t eat animals or animal products. Vegetarians just do not eat animals.

I’ve seen this question on here before– the question never loses its funny-ness, no matter how many times you hear it.

only on Fridays.
If there were no hypothetical questions, there would only be hypothethical answers wandering around looking for some way to be useful. Hypothetically, of course.
