1.
Starbursts are off the menu because they contain gelatin, which is made from animal skin and bones -
2.
Some beer, like Guinness, is off limits to vegetarians because it uses fish bladder in the brewing process. All hope is not lost, however. There’s a whole list of beers that are vegan friendly if you’re inclined to have a cheeky jug or five every so often. -
3.
It’s harder than you might think to find food that doesn’t have animal bones in it. Not sure if this is a secret plan to piss off vegetarians, but it certainly means you can’t eat the reduced fat sour cream from Taco Bell. -
4.
Apparently they do put bones in to piss you off. If you’re a vegetarian, you just got a lot pickier. Sugar is made using bone char predominantly from cow bones. The only reason they use it is to make sugar whiter. -
5.
Apple pie, wholesome apple pie. You’ve loved it since you were a kid and guess what? You can’t eat it! Just kidding, well not quite, but a lot of recipes are made with lard which isn’t vegetarian friendly. Instead, just make it without. -
6.
If you’re hurting right now, don’t worry – we’re already half way through. Activia has gelatin and parts of crushed up insects. After hearing that you’re probably not to eager to eat it again anyway. -
7.
You are probably crying a whole vegan river because you can’t suck on Altoids anymore. Guess what they contain? I’m surprised there are any animal graveyards since all their bones are in our products. -
8.
Say it isn’t so! This favorite dessert has gelatin in it, of course. But don’t be jell-ous, there is a recipe for gelatin-free jell-O. -
9.
If you’re a vegetarian and you have eaten Reggiano cheese, then prepare to feel pretty awful about yourself. This cheese is made from the stomach of newborn baby calves. -
10.
One of the key ingredients in Twinkies is beef fat. It isn’t just vegetarians that should stay away from these artery-clogging sugar logs. -
11.
There’s no excuse for this one. Gummy Bears are actually telling you that they are made out of animals. It is slightly unnerving that they are smiling at you though. -
12.
These chips are cooked in lard, so hands off. Apparently Grandma Utz is hiding some dark secrets.
