    I guess we should also ban imitation crab.

    Carmine lipstick that isn’t made with beetles.

    Artificial sweeteners that don’t have any sugar but tastes like.

    Parchment should only be made of animals skin.

    and there’s probably a shit ton of products that are actually replacement things.

      Artificial sweeteners that don’t have any sugar but tastes like.

      Why? They don’t claim to be made of sugar.

      Parchment should only be made of animals skin.

      Why?
