Why is vegan non perishable prefered?

Vegan products are suitable for a large range of dietary preferences and requirements, like vegetarians, vegans, and people who avoid specific animal meats for religious reasons. This makes them more flexible.

Also keep in mind "vegan non perishables" includes things like rice and beans, canned vegetables, dried grains, spices. On top of things like TVP.

Makes sense I guess

Vegan products usually last longer in my experience, and it's nice for vegans who are in need to be able to eat what they want.

Also because it's vegan it doesn't contain lactose or eggs which some people are allergic to.

The punishment helps incentivize them to get back on their feet

I should have some old CDC masks from the pandemic, still wrapped. I'll try to make the tail end of Sunday if I can.
