How to use this tool

Compare two products side by side to see which is more likely vegan based on ingredients. Useful when choosing between brands of the same product type.

How it works

  1. Enter each product name and paste its ingredient list.
  2. Both lists are analyzed for animal-derived ingredients.
  3. Results compare flagged ingredients and overall status.
  4. The product with fewer animal-derived ingredients is highlighted.

How to interpret the result

  • Compare the number and severity of flagged ingredients.
  • A product with no flags isn't automatically certified vegan.
  • Consider certification, not just ingredient absence.
  • Price and nutrition are outside this tool's scope.

Important limitations

  • Preliminary results are marked as unverified and should not replace reading the actual label.
  • Formulations change by country, brand, and over time — always check your specific product.
  • We do not have access to proprietary manufacturer data unless it is publicly available.

Examples

Two margarine brands

Compare for milk derivatives, palm oil, and E-numbers.

Plant milk options

Most are vegan — compare fortification and additives.

Common mistakes

  • Comparing without full ingredient lists.
  • Choosing based on comparison alone without checking certification.

What to check next

  • Verify both labels in store.
  • Check for vegan certification on the winner.
