Most people asking "Are jojos vegan?" are referring to one of two very different types of food: the popular sandwich cookies or seasoned potato wedges. A surprising number of common cookie flavors, including some Joe-Joe's from Trader Joe's, are accidentally vegan, while potato jojos' vegan status depends entirely on preparation method and shared cooking oil.

According to brand information from Kellogg's, the vast majority of frosted toaster tarts contain beef-derived gelatin in the icing. So, are toaster tarts vegan? The short answer is: it depends on the brand and whether it's frosted, but many delicious plant-based alternatives exist.

According to the official Pop-Tarts website, all frosted varieties contain gelatin, making them non-vegan. This includes the popular frosted strawberry flavor. However, not all hope is lost for plant-based eaters, as some of the unfrosted versions are accidentally vegan.
