The Vegetarian Societys approved
trademark was
established in 1969. Since then it has become 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.
Approval will only be granted to products or ingredients not tested
on animals since 1986.
Approval will not be given to genetically modified ingredients as
these are likely to have been tested on animals.
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 and inspires the trust that comes from the
Vegetarian Society approved symbol.
The Vegetarian Society
is the oldest vegetarian organisation in the world. It offers an independent
voice to promote and provide information on vegetarianism.
The Vegetarian Society
Awards 2002, which promote
good practice in the vegetarian food and catering industries will be held
on 7 November 2002 at The Waldorf Hotel, The Strand, London.
