They’re bags better - Vegetarian Society Approved
Hearty’s Soy Nuts & Soy Crunchies

Aimed at the snack food producer, Hearty’s Soy Nuts from specialist food company Harvey Mercer are now available in premium quality ‘Stay Fresh Foil’. The tasty healthy snacks are also being presented as ‘whole roasted beans’ for even greater appeal in both flavour and appearance. Soy Nuts are available in three fantastic varieties: Salted, Barbeque and Chocolate coated.

Hearty’s have also launched the all new ‘Soy Crunchies’, a delicious high protein, low carb snack, currently available in Sour Cream & Onion flavour.

Vanessa Brown, Head of Corporate relations at The Vegetarian Society said: “We are really pleased to approve Hearty’s soy snacks. Not only are they great for vegetarians, they are delicious, GM free and suitable for gluten free diets!”

The Vegetarian Society’s ‘seedling symbol‘, established in 1969, is the most widely recognised and trusted stamp of vegetarian approval anywhere in the world. The symbol can be found on a huge range of products, including retail food and drinks, catering supplies, household goods, cosmetics and toiletries.

The strength of the symbol is based on products meeting the following criteria:
• Products must be free from all meat, poultry, fish, shellfish and crustacea.
• Products must not contain slaughter by-products such as gelatine or animal fat.
• Any eggs used in the product must be free-range.
• The Society also requires that cross contamination does not occur between vegetarian and non-vegetarian products during food production.

No other symbol gives consumers such reassurance.
