Guest guest Posted November 11, 2008 Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 There needs to be a standard way of labeling vegan and vegetarian items on menus. In Fresh Choice, some of the dishes are labeled with the words " vegan " or " vegetarian " . Not everything is properly labeled there (e.g., breads & desserts are not labeled), but at least they've made a start. I have also seen some labels in the deli section of Whole Foods. Schemes to designate vegan/vegetarian foods can absorb dozens of ancillary issues and become extremely complicated. For example, see: http://www.foodstandards.gov.uk/multimedia/pdfs/consultationresponse/sum mrespvegi.pdf To get off the ground, the scheme must be simple. -- Mike ------ -------- vegan4animals Saturday, November 08, 2008 1:50 PM ; ; activistsforanimals [ActivistsForAnimals] Hobee's in Mountain View-not so vegan burger Hi everyone, I've been told at other Hobee's locations that their veggie burger was vegan. But when I ordered there today I thought I'd double check and the server told me it had no cheese and no eggs. Then she came back 10 minutes later and said they double-checked the box and it does contain cheese and eggs. I don't know if this is the case at all Hobee's locations, but just wanted to warn everyone to be aware at the location on Central Expressway in MV. I'll contact the company and see what they say. They assured me that the tofu scramble is vegan as is the black bean chili. Take care, Melissa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
