This Vegan Bakery List Is All You ‘Knead’ to Find Sweet Treats Near You
Who doesn’t love a delicious baked good? But before you visit a bakery, there are some things you knead to know. Many baked goods use eggs stolen from caring mother hens who’d rather dust-bathe and raise their families than be exploited for a cookie. Other items are made with butter or milk taken from nurturing cows who want to feed their own babies. Thankfully, such products are easily avoided because of the ever-growing availability of animal-friendly ones. When you visit a vegan bakery, you get all the deliciousness—without so much as a crumble of cruelty. PETA traveled from coast to coast to find spots to satisfy your sweet tooth.
