Cane sugar is sometimes processed through bone char which some consider non-vegan. In general, items which are questionably vegan are marked as maybe non-vegan in this app, however for this ingredient we make an exception for several reasons: the bone char is not in the final product in any appreciable amount, many companies use vegetable based activated charcoal now instead, and there are viable vegan alternatives which the industry will naturally switch to if people start consuming less animals.
