First it was Guiness, now......

If you're veggie, but love chocolate don't read this as ignorance is probably bliss. My mate just had great delight in sending this to me. crybaby

Graham,

Thanks a bunch for bringing this to my attention sad11 Stomach lining of young calves! Blimey I thought haggis sounded horrible! And I really like Marathons (the choc not the event) too.

It's like they've cancelled Christmas.

Still there's always Thorntons (and before anyone says it - no I don't want to know what ingredients are in Thorntons chocs).

Cheers,

John.

Lee,

See this.

Any recipe that starts "take one Sheep's stomach" isn't going to sit well in my stomach colors.

But then again I rate Ramsey and he hates veggies.

Cheers,

John.

PS I'm sure the goodie bag for the Edinburgh will have some McEwens!

I was looking forward to watching you girls fight for chocolate, however;

Quote:
A vicious battle raged in the UK last week between Masterfoods and a small, but vocal, army of vegetarians when the maker of Mars, Maltesers, Snickers and Galaxy bars decided to use rennet, animal-derived whey (taken from calves' stomachs), instead of the more costly vegetarian whey.

The decision, based on the desire to shave a few digits off the company's costs, sparked huge debate played out in columns of mainstream newspapers.

Faced with a reported 6,000 letters from furious chocoholics, Mars regretted its misjudgement and yesterday executed an impressive about-face. The company issued a lengthy apology to its customers and vowed to keep its products meat-free.
