Am I paranoid or are they giving a non-answer and beating around the bush?

A lot of these companies will say it's "plant-based" and or "not animal-based" but really they mean there are animal ingredients but just only a small amount... As a vegan I absolutely can't have any animal ingredients. Should I press more or give up and throw away the Silk milk I have in the fridge? :(

It's also the fact that they're owned by Danone, an animal-based company. So I don't trust them. I know I should abstain from all these companies but I need to eat something and I have allergies and illnesses, so their protein milk seemed like such a good meal replacement for me when I can't eat a meal, which is often. But now I feel like I have to throw it away. On their website they never use the word vegan either, but Silk Canada does? It's so weird. But I'm scared to ask further cause I have trauma from being abused so I don't like annoying people or making them mad.

Please let me know what you guys think!

Vegan restaurants and sensory issues

I'm realizing how few restaurants I can go to now and it makes me pretty sad. Everywhere my partner and I love to go is off the table now. No vegan foods. There is one known fully vegan restaurant in our city and every menu item is very complicated (lots of stuff and weird textures) and I feel offput by it. I just want some normal ass pancakes that are also vegan. Why is every vegan place a health nut place as well? And why is every "vegan option" at normal restaurants just basically a boring salad?
