This applies either to or from /r/vegetarian. Reddit prohibits brigading & vote manipulation, which applies when a call to action is made either directly or implied.

If you would like to discuss the ethical implications of the various vegetarian diets, egg/dairy industries, pet ownership, fashion, etc., please create a thread on the general subreddit r/vegetarianism instead. Evangelism, proselytizing and/or derailing discussions by arguing against vegetarianism is not welcome here. The connection must be clear, relevant and directly specific to a vegetarian diet. Posts and comments must be directly related to the vegetarian (human) diet (i.e., food). Users who harass other users or moderators will be reported to Reddit’s Admins. People who violate this rule will be permanently banned. This means don’t be a jerk, no trolling, bullying, name-calling, hostility, badgering or mocking individuals or vegetarians as a group. If you know of others, please comment and I’ll add to this list.Follow Reddiquette and remember the human behind the screen. Some brands that I know of are Stonyfield Farm, Brown Cow (their cream top yogurts are my new favorite), Horizon, Dannon All Natural only, Harris Teeter store brand. There are many brands of yogurt that contain no gelatin especially organic brands and yogurt marked “all natural”. Note to vegetarians – almost all gelatin in food products comes from animals (e.g. Even expensive ones such as La Crème contain gelatin! I examined the possibility that gelatin could increase the nutrition of yogurts because of the high amount of protein, however gelatin causes a net loss of protein. Proof that gelatin is more of a filler than for consistency comes from the fact that even yogurt drinks such as Danimals contain gelatin. Dannon is one major national brand which does this – try to sell you a more expensive “All Natural” yogurt. However personally, I see no particular consistency difference in yogurts with and without gelatin so I say it is all a gimmick to save money and also cheat customers into paying more for so called “All Natural” products which have fewer nasty ingredients. I would venture to guess that gelatin is cheaper than yogurt and is a tasteless filler material that probably saves companies money and makes the consistency arguably better. Now there is no particular reason Yogurt needs gelatin. I’ve noticed that most flavored yogurts in grocery stores have gelatin in them.

Update (8/26/14): Now I’ve switched to mostly eating Greek Yogurt, which doesn’t contain gelatin and is a lot tastier. Update (): Now I’ve switched to eating mostly Siggi’s Skyr (Icelandic yogurt) or if not available, then plain Greek Yogurt with either Parchayi’s homemade jam or Trader Joe’s reduced sugar (these just have less sugar, no substitutes) preserves.
