If You Are a Vegetarian
Today's society is strictly divided into meat-eaters, those who disdain meat products and those who extol plant foods and despise those who eat meat. The penultimate and the last ones are called vegetarians and vegans respectively. More and more people decide to lead a vegetarian, vegan or simply animal-friendly lifestyle.
If not so long ago they had to stand in line to buy a proper book in the bookstore, now our great technology is open to help them find some information that makes it easier to follow the rules. The Internet is full of web sites and apps that provide a load of diversified things for vegetarians&vegans.
I've tried to collect some useful apps that could be a kind of interest and value for veg people. They will become your guide in the world of plant foods (recipes, products, shops and restaurants) and help you sustain a relevant diet.

According to my knowledge concerning veg people habits, checking every company/store so-called 'vegetarian-friendly' label is of importance for them. The app allows you to check whether this or that brand was tested on animals or not.
You will be able to easily get access to the latest CCF List of cruelty-free accredited products such as cosmeticÑ‹, personal care items or everyday household products. These (more than 200) products don’t have animal derivative ingredients for sure and have not caused any acts of brutality or cruelty such as testing make up on beasts.

Animal-Free
Animal-Free
If you are a veg-person, then you might be anxious about finding common and hidden animal ingredients in all products you buy. Their testing has never been easier. This app will rapidly identify if a product bar code leads to something animal delivered or not. The online source shows a list of user comments who tried the item or ask some information about it. As for me, it's not actually a very reliable or proved information because ingredients are not tested by researchers. But if you just choose to read or note some info for fun, you are welcome.
Vegetarianism is really hard and these apps should make your life easier. Hope you will find some useful information that will come in handy.
