Cranfield Kate Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 M&S has made its Percy Pigs vegetarian - no more gelatine! although they do still do the normal ones and all their other sweets have gelatine in them too. I just don't understand why anything has to have gelatine in it. anyway, thanks M&S! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

majuka Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 About time! I have never understood gelatine. When we make cheesecakes etc we use the veggie gelatine so why can't that be used more by supermarkets? I find it frustrating that, Sainsburys for example, are using free range eggs in a lot more of their products now, not just the taste the difference range, but we still cannot eat them because they use animal gelatine in many of their deserts, not veggie one.

Cinnamon Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 I have found the veggie friendly jellies (in the dessert section) to be really odd though - they no longer have that Jelly texture & seem really smiley to me. My veggie daughter,who loves Haribo,cannot stand their veggie version Hope the Percys are better! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squiffs Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 My OH was brought up veggie but he eats haribo. We tried the vegetarian haribo and they stick to your teeth something rotten, very greasy and sticky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angie Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 I love M&S food but there is so little i can eat due to the fact they add wine and alcohol or balsamic vinegars to such a lot of their food and i can't eat it......nasty allergy to grapes and alcohol . I know it enhances the taste but most of the time i have to look elsewhere for a dine in meal or make my own while the others munch away at niceness.............not fair. infact Haribo put grape juice in their sweets too .

snowberry Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Just before I left working in their foodhall, they launched a lollipop called 'Suck it & see'. Is it only me & my colleagues who found this risque? A couple of weeks later they launched some chocolate called 'big balls'.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
