Guest guest Posted February 24, 2003 Report Share Posted February 24, 2003 I just had a reply from Cadburys regarding my 'feedback' re. the butterfat situation. Nothing hopefuly but there ya go. At least they replied. Here's what they wrote if anyone's interested. I think it's good that are going to put a warning sign on their labels, although obviously it's for people with allergies and not vegans, but at least anyone who doesn't know the situation will be able to read that.: <3 Shari Black Velvet Thank you for your recent enquiry concerning the suitability of our products for a vegan/dairy free diet. All of our products contain milk in their ingredients, with the exception of Fry's Chocolate Cream, Peppermint Cream and Orange Cream. However, these products are manufactured on the same production line as products which contain milk in their recipe and therefore there is a possibility of cross contamination. For those consumers with a milk allergy we are taking the precaution of including on future labelling of our Fry's range, a warning indicating this risk. The recipe for Bournville the original plain chocolate is changing its site of manufacture and the new recipe will contain butterfat, which we believe will make it unsuitable for a vegan/dairy free diet. We do appreciate how disappointing this must be for you but please be assured we will be monitoring the situation closely. Thank you for contacting us.

Guest guest Posted February 25, 2003 Report Share Posted February 25, 2003 Used to like Bournville when I was a kid, then didn't eat it for ages as a vegan, then when it went vegan rushed out & bought some and it was foul. They're welcome to it!
