Generally speaking, good quality chocolate itself usually does not contain eggs, or their byproducts, but, most probably does contain milk. The fillings, however, can easily contain eggs or their byproducts. Therefore, if you are speaking of a 'strict' vegetarian, that is to say, a 'lacto-ovo' avoiding vegan, then it would be the correct decision to eat none at all. If 'lacto' is 'ok', then, just eat the outer 'shell' and give away or discard the filling. Chocolate manufactured and sold in the US itself is not really chocolate at all, since it only rarely contains any cocoa butter at all. Legally, and for export purposes, it's called 'chocolate-flavoured-type candy', and, when compared to 'real' chocolate, seems to be a different substance altogether. The US product can, and does, contain any and all materials imaginable, and both vegetarians and vegans...and those with taste...should avoid it.
Lacto-vegetarians use dairy products, and generally chocolate and chocolate products are acceptable in their diet.
Vegans do not eat dairy, so many chocolate products do not fall into this diet. Baking cocoa is acceptable. Any chocolate labeled "Milk Chocolate" would be suitable for a lacto-vegetarian but not for a vegan. If it is labeled "Dark Chocolate," it doesn't have milk, but can have other milk products, such as butterfat.
If you're trying to feed chocolate to a vegan, read the label carefully. Otherwise, most vegetarians could eat most any chocolate.
The refined white sugar may have been processed with charred animal bones.
i think they are suitable because there is not a chocolate bar that isnot suitable for vegetarians anyway i am a vegetarian.
Not all chocolate is suitable for vegetarians. You can check on each companies website for suitability or use the contact information to ask.
For example I recently contacted Mars Inc and found out that Twix and Bounty are not suitable for vegetarians. I am in the UK, I think it varies from country to country.
I also found out from another company that Ferrero Rocher are suitable apart from any sold in the prestige/collection packs.
Things can always change though so it is best to contact them again every 3 months or at least ever 6 months.
It would be so much easier if companies were just made to specify on the packaging if a product is suitable. Cadbury's does this. I don't understand why other companies don't. Consumers would like this so why don't they do it?!
Yes.
Yes, any type of chocolate is fine for vegetarians, unless it had some type of animal product in it. However, if it had milk chocolate in it, then it would not be suitable for vegans.
Nestle products are still suitable for vegetarians. A lot of the products come from plant products and they may include tea, coffee or chocolate drinks.
Pollio Ricotta cheese is suitable for vegetarians.
Yes, but it contains dairy products so is unsuitable for vegans. The plain chocolate bar is labelled suitable for vegetarians (in the smallest, most difficult to find writing possible) but some of the other types are not labelled as such so I would be wary of them. Allegedly, the bars do have a "Suitable for Vegetarians" writing on them, but it's insanely difficult to find.
