Mitigated victory: the company will update their labels to indicate their products are not suitable for vegetarians.

I rather would have heard them say they will stop using animal-derived aromas, but that is not the case unfortunately. The 0.5% of meat in their veggies seems more important than their 5% of vegetarian customers + few % of muslims, jewish,... not willing to buy veggies containing meat.

Wow thanks for posting Nicolas...I would never have realised! I only use bottled passata though, and the odd can of beans but it is nice to be in the know anyway :)

That's disgusting!  Makes me want to vomit.

Somebody should sue the pants off of them!

Really people shouldn't have to doubt whether something like french fries, a can of vegetables, or a can of vegetable soup contain animal products or not.  It should  be a given that it doesn't.
