Guest guest Posted October 28, 2000 Report Share Posted October 28, 2000 This is what I sent Planters: I would like to say that I have never been so disappointed as I am now, not to mention angry. I will NEVER buy any of your products again. The reason being that I am a vegan and I'm always a label reader, so yesterday I decided to eat some of your dry roasted salted peanuts without thinking twice about reading your label. I mean, one would think that peanuts are peanuts and that's that. But bad mistake on my part. As I had eaten about 10 peanuts, I decided to look at the ingredients while I was eating. To my horror, I saw GELATIN as one of the ingredients. What would possess anyone to put damn GELATIN on peanuts?? I almost gagged and spit everything out. I was so mad. And for this reason, I will never use any Planters products again. And I know that someone will respond back and try to justify the use of GELATIN in the product, but quite honestly there is no reason good enough to put GELATIN on peanuts. And just when you think that something is safe for consumption, you're proven otherwise. Why must just about every product be tainted and destroyed with animal ingredients??? Is there anything left that is worry-free to eat?? Certainly NOT Planters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly NOT Planters. What's worse is that labels don't have to tell you what is in the product, as long as that ingredient is on an FDA approved list. What's worse is all the MSG in processed food. http://www.truthinlabeling.org/index.html What's worse is the level of dioxin (agent orange) in everything including the air we breathe. http://www.enviroweb.org/issues/dioxin/ However, the levels of dioxin are highest in beef and in order of next highest to lowest: dairy, milk, chicken, pork, fish, eggs, air, soil, water... We're all being poisoned by dioxin, vegans and breatharians are receiving the lowest dosage. There's no place to hide. Not even on planet vegan.
