Guidance on vegetarian and vegan labelling

On 6th April 2006 the Food Standards Agency published guidance designed to improve food labelling for vegans and vegetarians. It was produced after consultation with stakeholders including The Vegetarian Society and The Vegan Society and provides "official" criteria for the use of the terms vegetarian and vegan on food labels for the first time.
