This would be very important, to get more people take the move. Today where everything is emoji-powered, Unicode should encode the sooner the better,

some striking emojis carrying the message of veganism.

Because today, AFAIK, there are only food-labels as the wavy-barred circled ear of wheat for gluten-free food, or something like a barred glass of milk

for dairy-free food. There will be to fix a flaw on designations too, because dairy-free liquids and bifidus-fermented products may be referred to as

for example soya-based dairy.

The extremely precise non-vegan food-emojis that actually exist, need to be counter-balanced by an even greater variety of vegan emojis.
