Ingredients, colour-coded
What needs attention
- DoubtfulFlavourings
The word "flavouring" does not say what a flavour is made from or dissolved in. Most are plant-based or synthetic, but some are carried in alcohol or glycerol of unstated source, and a few contain animal ingredients. Doubtful unless the pack says plant-based or alcohol-free, or shows a halal logo.
- DoubtfulCheese
Depends on the rennet. Many UK supermarket cheddars use microbial rennet and are labelled vegetarian; Parmesan and Grana Padano always use animal rennet.
