Does it taste like....honey
Same with livestock farming!
remember my grandmother telling SWMBO the story of Horace their first pig, when it came to the bit about my grandfather whistling him to walk to heel and to his death at the neighbouring farm she thought seeing my grandmother's sad, wistful look "that's why she hardly ever eats pork now" then my grandmother sighed and said "best bit of pork I've ever eaten"............
In most ways, beekeeping seems much better than livestock farming as regards accidental deaths. But I doubt that many farmers carelessly flatten their animals whilst inspecting them or collecting their produce. But don't misunderstand me, I may be some sort of pacifist, but veganism seems a misguided step too far.
I don't know that it's any better than livestock farming in terms of accidental deaths. There's still parasite control and the number of deaths per calorie is lower with livestock than bees!
I thought yes well I'd hope so that beekeeping is safer!
How do vegans get away with calling cheese vegan?
Vegan cheese doesn’t contain milk.
But they don't think anything of riding bicycles whose ball bearings have been hardened in a process that uses bovine bones!Never mind the pesticides, what about all the wild animals that were displaced to make way for that field
I am not vegan , but to my understanding being vegan is about avoiding animal products wherever possible.
Vegans tend to ignore fossil fuels for a start, and I am sure there are many more examples.

That’s because they didn’t know. Now you ruined cycling for them!
Not forgetting the swathes of forest and land being cleared in Africa, the Far East and South America for Soya beans, palm oil trees, almond orchards etc etc but that doesn't count according to vegan, much of the land that once held massive bee colonies!!
