A random thought I had. I think the answer is no, but I’m not that certain. Convince me please.
You really want to test the limits of this sub.
No one is, in fact, allowed to do that.

Vegans and vegetarians are allowed to eat meat. They just choose not to. They are equally allowed to eat boogers. Most just choose not to.
Best answer. No one’s policing your veganism but yourself.
Depends on how meaty they are?
There is no harm to the donor. Should be comparable to milk or honey.
There is harm from milk and honey, though, which is why vegans are against it.

I would hope so since it is pretty impossible not to eat your own boogers. If you don’t know you swallow a lot of mucus, even if you are a serial nose blower, it just goes down your throat from the back of your nose.
Yes.

The main reasons for vegetarianism are a., to avoid killing or a.i unduly harming animals, particularly a.ii, without consent, b. to avoid environmental damage, or c., to save money.

Because of point 1.a, vegetarians eat animal products, like milk, eggs and honey.
Under point 2., bogeys are clearly okay to eat as an animal product that doesn’t kill the animal that produces it. That’s probably sufficient for our purposes but lets check against 1. to make sure
No harm comes to you from eating your own bogeys (except indirect social harm if other people find out and want to stop hanging out with you), so that covers 1.a.i. Obviously you consent to eating them, so that covers a.ii, too. There’s zero environmental consequences to eating bogeys (b). Eating your own bogeys won’t cost any money, so that covers c.
In conclusion, go ahead and eat your bogeys, champ.
Just don’t do it near me.
Because of point 1.a, vegetarians eat animal products, like milk, eggs and honey.
The production of all three involves harm to the animals and is done without their consent.
Automatic milking machines prove otherwise. Cows stand in line to get milked and often have to be skipped because they’ve been milked already
The part they didn’t consent to was being in pain from overproduction of milk, which is something we imposed on them through selective breeding. If we didn’t do that, they’d just go about their merry ways making enough to feed their calves and stop making milk when they’ve grown enough to feed themselves.

I think it’s vegans that have an issue with it I’d imagine. I assume they don’t swallow either.
