is equal sugar substitute vegan?

Whitley Leopold: Egg Amount: 1 whole egg Substitute: - 1/4 cup egg substitute (examples include: Egg Beaters, Second Nature, Scramblers); check label for specific directions - Reconstituted powdered eggs; follow package directions - 2 tablespoons mayonnaise (suitable for use in cake batter). NOTE: If you type "mayonnaise cake recipe" into your favorite Internet search engine, you'll find several recipes for cakes made with mayonnaise and NO eggs.
