The vegan community is all up in arms over Daiya being bought by a pharmaceutical company that tests on animals.  Suggesting a Daiya boycott, many vegans angrily claim they are no longer a vegan company.  Others think the Daiya scandal is hypocritical when most vegans purchase vegan products from non-vegan companies all of the time.  What do you think?

This story and more in this week's #LastWeekInVegan.
