It's the bread products and processed sugars that are being avoided in that case. Most animal products are not carb heavy and carbs are what creates fat.

Makes me wonder why the majority of vegans whom I know are fat.

Potato lovers.

I was 365lb+ when I went vegan and switched to a high carb, whole food, plant-based diet. I started rigorously counting calories a little over a year ago. I've lost 140lbs since 1/1/18 with no regain. I eat starchy foods with just about every meal. I eat potatoes almost every day. Excess calories create fat and a lot of people have no problem finding those. Vegans are no different, especially now that so many junk food and fast food brands are providing an abundance of options unlike ever before.

That's a great idea.
