umm if it's made out of real chikens , no

well if its just artificial flavoring than yes, but if there is actual chicken in it than no.

if it has chicken flavor, it has likely been derived from animal sources

no. im a vegeterian, i dont anythng that reads chicken flavor.i asked some person working as QA, that its a chemical substitute with some real dried component..

Yes, it's not chicken.

Most chicken flavor is probably chicken bullion (dried chicken broth) which would not be vegetarian.

Odds are it isn't vegetarian unless you would have some reason to believe otherwise (it came from a 7th day adventist store or other vegan producer.)

Why don't you post where you got the product? Either assume you can't eat it, or do the research.

To be completely honest, I think its pointless if a person is a vegetarian to eat things that have "meat" flavors. Why even be a vegetarian? Those types of products are made for non-vegetarian people that have to limited their meat intake for health or diet reasons. For example, my mother isn't a vegetarian, but belongs to Weight Watchers and they recommend adding such products into everyone's daily diet. When I first became a vegetarian my mother bought me such products to be supportive, but I couldn't make myself eat them... Since I had given up meat I couldn't reason with myself to eat something that had meat flavors, regardless of it actually being vegetarian.
But that's just a vegetarian's opinion... haha

If it's 'chicken' flavored ... odds are it has chicken flavoring derived from chicken broth, etc ... so I would say no. Just check the ingredients.

Yes, a vegetarian can eat anything that they want to. However, whether they choose to eat a particular product depends the product.

Some Chicken Flavoured products use MSG, soy, and similar veggie sources. Others use Chicken Stock, beef stock, poultry stock, or similar meat based ingredients.

Read the ingredients closely and you should find your answer.

nO, READ THE LABEL and you will see the artifical ingredients.

Usually if it has chicken flavoring, there is some chicken in it. So, no.

if you want to eat it, then you should just eat it.
i don't eat chicken flavored things; it is disgusting.

if it says artificial than you can eat it but if it doesn't than your'e out of luck. is it somethinng like Romin?

no, it will be chicken stock or contain chicken powder, stay away.

yes...'flavour' just means it tastes like it.
chicken 'flavoured' is different. means its flavoured with chicked.

I am veggie and eat walkers roast chicken crisps because they are labelled as being vegetarian.

If it contains an animal then no, if it doesn't then yes eat it!

If you like but just stop calling yourself a vegetarian, after all does it matter. What is the reason you're vegetarian? If it's for your health eat as you wish if it's to be kind to animals then that's a different matter.
