Our Vegan Policy

Spoons Kitchen Exchange believes that veganism is a great choice we can make for ourselves, our fellow animals, and the planet.

We're not here to make a killing—we're here to make a living!

We aim to provide resources that make plant-based meals accessible, affordable, and utterly delicious—all while cruelty-free.  

Products

  • We don’t use animal-based products like beeswax for refurbishing items.
  • We don’t carry any new or used items containing animal products, such as bone china or cow leather, or source newly manufactured products that were developed using animal testing.
  • We don't carry kitchenware that are solely used for animal-based ingredients and cannot be repurposed. Examples of items we've refused to sell include a used jerky cannon (yes really) or a chicken roasting rack. 

Resources

  • We publish vegan recipes on our website and print resources.
  • We teach our customers how to repurpose kitchen tools, like meat grinders and steak knives, for plant-based recipes.

Workplace and Partnerships

  • We only purchase vegan food for our employees and customers, source locally produced food whenever possible, and implement zero-waste practices to divert food waste.
  • We only work with food and beverage vendors that provide at least one vegan option on their menus, and prioritize partnerships with vegan-focused businesses.
  • We donate a portion of our proceeds to nonprofit organizations and mutual aid groups that support animal rights and veganism through our 5% for the People initiative

Can I still shop at Spoons Kitchen Exchange if I'm not vegan?

We recognize that our customers’ dietary decisions will differ from ours, and that they might use our items to cook and eat animal products. Whatever your diet, vegans and omnivores alike are all welcome at Spoons Kitchen Exchange!
