    Mars starts using animal products

    Report bad ads?


    Didn't know where else to put this, but I was shocked when I found this out..
    I can't have twix anymore!

    Masterfoods' brands are household names
    Some of the UK's best-selling chocolate bars, such as Mars and Twix, will no longer be suitable for vegetarians.
    Also affecting brands such as Snickers and Maltesers, owner Masterfoods said it had started to use animal product rennet to make its chocolate products.

    Masterfoods said the change was due to it switching the sourcing of its ingredients and the admission was a "principled decision" on its part.

    The Vegetarian Society said the company's move was "incomprehensible".

    'Extremely disappointed'

    Masterfoods said it had started using rennet from 1 May and non-affected products had a "best before date" up to 1 October.

    Masterfoods' decision to use non-vegetarian whey is a backward step

    Vegetarian Society

    Rennet, a chemical sourced from calves' stomachs, is used in the production of whey.

    It will now also be found in Bounty, Minstrels and Milky Way products, and the ice cream versions of all Masterfoods' bars.

    "If the customer is an extremely strict vegetarian, then we are sorry the products are no longer suitable, but a less strict vegetarian should enjoy our chocolate," said Paul Goalby, corporate affairs manager for Masterfoods.

    The Vegetarian Society said it was "extremely disappointed".

    "At a time when more and more consumers are concerned about the provenance of their food, Masterfoods' decision to use non-vegetarian whey is a backward step," it said in a statement.

    "Mars products are very popular with young people and many will be shocked to discover that their manufacture now relies on the extraction of rennet from the stomach lining of young calves," it added.

    Re: Mars starts using animal products

    I think with milk teeth, it's easier for the teeth to rot quick..so it's best not to feed kids chocolate until the age of say 12, or until all of the baby teeth have fallen out..
    and Umm Qalam, Fererro Roche is haraam? oh..
    Well I've jus checked foodguide.org.uk
    FERRERO ROCHER - HALAAL *
    though: * These products contain calf whey syrup or cheese. Please refer to fatwa on this link:
    http://www.gmwa.org.uk/foodguide2/vi...tID=1&compID=1

    source: http://www.gmwa.org.uk/foodguide2/in...uestion&id=167

    yup, maybe it's best to move to a Muslim country, but where?

    Exactly, I feel that we are given enough freedom to practice our own religion here, besides I feel most comfortable here.
    Also, the chocolates in Bangladesh taste naff..

    Re: Mars starts using animal products

    Or we can all move to an uninhabited Island, and appoint a khalifa and ensure that the rules of Shariah are followed and have only halaal chocolates made there (Are we going off topic?)
