Do you consider figs to be vegan?
We consider figs just as “vegan” as any other fruit. The wasp entering the fig to pollinate the flower is a natural process and is not due to human intervention. Not every female wasp gets trapped in the fig however, if she does, she is enzymatically digested. This would be no different than insects and earthworms decomposing in soil. There are unintentional insects in much of the food we eat and are often unavoidable in commercial products. We permit figs in Certified Vegan products.
