Thanks so much for taking the time to share your message with us, Mitzi, and for being open about where you feel conflict in some of the content and references. Your speculation that the goal of this article isn’t to strictly share vegan recipes is correct, and you have our apologies if the opening reference to plant-based diets came across as confusing or misleading. Rather, we recognize that a number of diets and dietary preferences are gaining tracking — including a move towards plant-based eating and some gradients of that along the way. With this article, we hope to inspire those who live somewhere within that gradient, whether by choice or necessity, and who specifically avoid dairy. Your points are taken to heart, however, and our team has made some updates to this article to help direct vegan readers to a selection of our recipes which exclude both milk and eggs (we encourage you to view them here), along with a couple of other references we’ve approached with fresh eyes and could perceive the potential for unintended misalignment. Our goal is always to educate and inspire, not disappoint or mislead, and we again thank you for communicating with us regarding how this article read to you.
