Vegan Cereals
Note: Packaging and ingredients can change over time, so please DOUBLE CHECK EVERYTHING, and let us know if you spot any changes or errors. We include products that state ‘may contain milk/egg’, i.e. they are at risk of cross-contamination during the manufacturing process. This is simply an allergy warning, but these products cannot be marked vegan by law. They are however, generally considered suitable for vegans. To help keep this resource going, Vegan Womble would receive a small commission if you were to purchase products via any affiliate links in this post. Affiliate links are marked with *. Read our full legal disclaimer…
Product information and photos are submitted by the Vegan Womble community – you are our eyes and ears. We will keep adding products as they come in, so please keep sending us your vegan discoveries.
Being vegan you certainly don’t have to miss out on cereal. There is a wide choice available and a wide choice of milk alternatives to go with them!
Note: Do check for changes in ingredients. Vitamin D from non-vegan sources often get added to recipes and other vitamins can change sources, making them no longer vegetarian and vegan. Be sure to check the box still says suitable for vegetarians. If vitamin D appears in a product, there’s a chance that it could be D2 (vegan), or plant-derived D3, so if you really love the cereal, it’s worth checking with customer services… and then let us know too!

“Technically, Chocolate Squares are suitable for vegans, however they are produced on the same production line as some products which do contain milk, and for this reason, we can’t state that they are suitable for vegans on the box in case of a minute degree of cross contamination.
The Vitamin D we use in Chocolatey Squares is vitamin D2 and is derived from a yeast extract and not derived from sheep’s wool lanolin” received 08/17

ASDA
15/3/18 we found that Asda are going to switch to vegan vitamin D. No timescale yet. “I have been in touch with our buying team who has advised me the D3 is the one that is usually used in the food industry and it does contain a derivate of sheep wool ( not vegetal ). The D2 is more expensive but we are going to switch to this one because this one is suitable for vegan ( vegetal).”

A lot of Kellogg’s cereals contain vitamin D and they use a non vegan source. But there are a few that are vegan and this is a couple of them. A couple of Special K also don’t have vitamin D.
Aug 16 – I wrote to Kelloggs to check if Just Right was still vegan, as they have taken the suitable for vegetarian labelling off the new packets. They still are vegan.

I am gona go ahead and say that ready brek original does contain cows milk even if just by cross contamination.
I am allergic to cows milk and get rashes in my mouth if i eat something with cows milk in. I couldnt see any ingredient that is conected to cows milk in their list and i stupidly just thought the milk allergy warning was just them being obliged to write that due to same factory law.
But sure enough after i eat this product with coconut milk i have tongue rash and other symptoms of my allergy .
So if you are genuinely vegan and dont witsh to eat cows milk or if like me it is allergy reason then just rule out the ready brek and do pay attention to these warnings on the box. My allergy is not serious enough to cause anaphalaxis but some people have that level. But also if you are vegan for ethical reasons dont kid yourself that you can eat the readybrek . I guaruntee the level of cross contamination in these factories is high enough to be contained in the products (thats why they are obliged to say these warnings I guess). Anyway surely you wouldnt want to support these companies anyway if it is ethical reasons agains eating a vegan diet? Why bother lookkg for loophole cereals from these brands that are using milk powder or whey powder on a mass production level? Just my thoughts anyway as i said mine is cow milk allergy reasoning so if anyone is looking here for that reasin I would say these labels are there for a reason totally.
Are Weetabix protein crunch vegan then please? Hoping they are but saw a tweet from Weetabix saying it contains D3?
This is so hopeful – thank you doing this!!
