Yeasts are fungi. And fungi, genetically, have more in common with animals than they do plants. (Not that it should matter to the vegans, because as far as we know fungi still can't feel anything)

As an elitist, speciest bastard, yeast aren't an animal product. Veganism is about animal cruelty. If you want to start a new fungal rights movement, be my guest.
some people become vegan over animal cruelty. i know vegans who have that diet because they think it will help them recover from overexercise better and some who got bit by ticks. i'm sure people have more reasons than these three.
And that's why I admire the Jain monks of India - those actually abstain of everything that implies harming a living being, and with that I mean EVERYTHING. They don't eat tubers as to not kill plants, don't consume water unless it's filtered to remove bacteria, don't turn fires on during the night to avoid killing insects, and a long long list of restrictions that make vegans look like hypocrites.
In the UK, it's not unusual at Christmas time to have a piece of christmas cake (fruit cake with fondant icing) with a slice/lump of mature cheddar cheese. Not sure if it's specifically for the taste or to aid with your mandatory 12000 calories per day intake over the festive period. Either way, it's bloody tasty.
I just watched a slightly boomerbait youtube video where a bunch of English high school kids try American barbecue and sides, and apart from the sweet tea, the only thing most of them disliked was the cornbread, though to be fair half of them decided that because it looked like cake it was supposed to taste like cake.
Silly Brits. The stuff that tastes like cake is the stuff that looks like bread.
