I think he thinks pasta is the end product like spaghetti bolognese.
Most of the off the shelf pastas involve dairy products in the production - many aren't just flour and water.
Up north? got me confused with someone.

Im from south London nearly everyone is from up north to me. Do you have an odd accent?
Lets just say for arguments sake I am not talking about those pastas.
What are you talking about? What products do they involve?
I've looked on Tesco and there are 61 items under 'Pasta and Spaghetti'. 54 of them are vegan. So, go on. What dairy products are involved in most dried pastas?
Roman 1 "are you going to watch the Christians being thrown to the lions tomorrow ?"
Roman 2 "don't you think that's a little ,well err barbaric ?"
Roman 1 "nah mate its normal"
Roman 2 " ah ok mate see you there then"
Roman 1 "yeah bye mate"
Nope, he generally thinks that dried pasta which is famous for being durum wheat and water involves some sort of animal product in the making of most of them. Of all the mad posts (from both sides), I think he's won the title for the craziest in this thread!

Are you 5 ? I do it through the letterbox
I'm from Somerset originally, though lived in London for a chunk of my life and back in Somerset again now.
Dried pasta is a lot more hit and miss than I think people realise when it comes to being vegan friendly and almost any fresh pasta will be made with eggs or similar.

Now thats not natural.

Eh? I'm not offended by being called a northerner I just assumed you'd got me mixed up with someone.
Have you blocked me or something? I just showed you that this just isn't true.
I've even just checked EVERY Tesco branded dried pasta, there are 29 on tesco.com. ONE has animal products in it - milk proteins, the rest are vegan. The one is gnocchi. Interestingly, the branded, more expensive 'De Coco' gnocchi, is vegan.
Care to explain how it's hit and miss?
You're right, most fresh supermarket pasta does have eggs in it. But, it's simply a lie to say that "most" or "many" or "it's hit and miss" dried pasta have animal products in it.

Its a shame I have to keep repeating myself but I will....we dont need to cause the suffering and death of animals that's my point, its a choice because there is an alternative.
Factory farmed animals which is where most people get their meat from, the animals suffer terribly, just watch 10 minutes of the documentary I posted in the op.

You know it’s ok to hold your hands and up and say you’re wrong…
