For anyone actually interested, vegan omega-3 comes from algae oil - fish are not the only source.
Which essential amino acids can't be obtained from plants?
Soybeans, quinoa, and buckwheat are complete protein sources. More importantly, pretty much any grain (wheat, oats, barley, rice) plus any legume (peas, green beans, beans, lentils, chickpeas, peanuts) are a complete source of amino acids.
Omega-3 accumulates in fatty fish, who obtain it by eating krill and other small animals, who obtain it by eating algae. Algae oil is available as a supplement. Also, Omega-3 is in tree nuts like walnuts, as well as flax and chia.
Oh, and B12 supplements come from yeast and mushrooms, not bacteria.
If you're gonna go hard at vegans you should at least get your facts straight.
