Candy alert

 

Halloween candy is often not vegan and sometimes not even vegetarian.

Read the labels.

 

Here are some ingredients to look out for:

 

 

Gelatin: made from boiled animal bones and tendons, often used in gummy

candies

Carmine: also known as " Natural Red 4 " , or shellac, this colour is made

from crushed insects

Pepsin (digestive enzyme from animals)

Lard (fat from pigs)

" E " numbers 904, 120, 542

I was flipping channels the other night and found a show called the " The

Secret Life of..Halloween " . It was on the food channel.

 

One segment was a complete vegetarian meal (may have even been vegan but I'm

not sure).

 

Was fun. Found the show on the foodnetwork site but they don't give enough

information.

 

(Plus I'd really like to know how to make that chef's purple witches hat,

it was pretty neat.)

PS Another segment made veggie corn candies.
