Mars Attacks!
I was reading the BBC a couple of days ago and found this gem:
Mars starts using animal products (BBC)
Great. Now all varieties of Mars bars are going to be non-veggie - not only non-veggie though, but it looks like also non-halal and non-kosher too.
I'd urge anyone who generally buys these products not to. Even if you find yourself unmoved by the plight of those of us now unable to eat their products, ask yourself what else they will put into mars bars for no particularly good reason without telling anyone. It's not like you even NEED rennet in chocolate anyway...
Not related to our travels (directly), but I thought it was important.

I used to eat Mars brnaded chocolate years ago but always found it hadn't set properly so I'm sure this rennet stuff will sort it ;)
Hurray. More chocolate available for meat eaters. Me in particular.
Soon even veggie curry will have animal products in and you'll be forced to see the error in your veggie ways.
Consider me "unmoved" by your so called plight. As for the what else could they add to Mars Bars hopefully "traces of nut" and "gluten" will further reduce the number of people who can eat these chocolate delights leaving all the more for me. Also as demand should decline prices should too due to simple ecconomics so it is a day to celebrate being a meat eater who can tolerate nuts and gluten as Mars should be flooding the shops with cheaper, more available chocolate :)
