Hmm, I would assume most candles are vegan being made of either paraffin or soy wax. Bees wax tends to be more expensive since it takes a long time for bees to make wax. The flame from bees wax is also smaller and less bright. Am I wrong about this assumption?
bullshit options with shit ass quora usually at the top. Who dafuq uses quora?
I wonder the same thing. I used it once, and only once, in my life. I had been trying to find vegan birthday candles and having no luck finding sources for the wax (since I was explicitly avoiding beeswax), so I asked Quora where I could find vegan candles. The answer I got?
“Don’t eat birthday candles.”
Uhhh…
Apparently whatever fool worked there had no idea that “vegan” is a lifestyle, that goes beyond food. The question was closed and I had no way to appeal or add information. Fantastic.

I don’t think you are. I’m pretty sure the default would be a cheaper alternative to beeswax.
I don’t guess they don’t have to list the ingredients though, so it would be hard to know it was vegan.

You got it. I can easily assume, but I wanted to know for sure. Ingredient lists would’ve been far more helpful than Quora.

Earwax takes even longer to make. My candles didn’t sell that well either.

You go to quora for the comedy. Like “how babby is formed” or “am I pregernant”
