Just wondering, since Hindu & Buddhist generally sees cows as sacred (Buffalo considered cow?), most don't eat Beef, and some are full Vegetarian not for health but for belief of not hurting animals.

So I'm wondering do they mind or think about non-food animal products, like Leather wallet, Leather Belt, Leather shoes, bags, even Car seats etc?

I know it's not as strict as Islam where Pig = big No No. but i'm thinking if i felt Cow is sacred, i would not use Cow leather products, even if it's a byproduct from cow meat, it still encourage slaughtering of cow, for non essential use, which is worse than slaughtering cow for meat.

Tamils & Buddhists /ktards, wots ur say on this? So far, i have yet seen Hindu/Buddhist certified products. Even vegetarian cert is only for food.

asking here since some folks locked my topic which i believe is a genuine no harm question.
