  1. Dear governments: Explain me why it is a good reason to allow producers not to name ingredients which are only used in very small amounts. Why am I not allowed to god-damn know which products contain animal sources so I can avoid them? This crap really sickens me...

    1. @omni do you avoid milk and eggs?

      1. @pony I don't (I'm an ovo-lacto vegetarian), I'm mostly talking about nonsense like not having to mention the use of gelatine if the dose is very small.

        1. @omni ah yeah. Gelatin is one of those tricky things. Interesting. :3 eggs and milk are so yummy. I've heard of some vegetarians who eat fish too. Then there are some who only abstain from meat most of the time for health reasons

          1. @pony There are enough non-animal ways of solving the gelating "problem", the only reason to use gelatine is because it's often cheaper and that's fine, but I want to be able to read it on the damn packaging... growls

            2. @omni yeah but they did that they would have to mention all the mercury in most of there products. And other chemicals. Haha.

              1. @firestormdangerdash Still better than the current situation. If I want to evade certain ingredients, I should be able to, it's really that simple in my opinion.

      1. @mushi Are you sure about that?

        Sunday, 14-Oct-12 15:30:50 UTC from MuSTArDroid
        1. @omni at least they say "it may contaiss small ammounts of meat, animal protein" and stuff

          1. @mushi AFAIK that's another rule if it's made in a fabric where animal sources are also processed and unrelated to what I'm talking about.
