Do you ever trust "natural flavor" to be vegetarian or vegan?!
The term "natural flavors" can include any flavoring derived from plant or animal sources!.
But if it's from dairy, does it have to say that!?
If it's something sweet would it be safe to assume it doesn't contain meat or eggs (because obviously you don't want beef flavored Kool-Aid for example)!? Or could it still be some sort of byproduct!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

Answers:
I never trust it, nor do I trust "Artificial Flavor" all the time either!. For example, ACT II popcorn has artificial flavor; turns out, it comes from fish, eggs, and milk!. That's right, their popcorn has fish and egg flavoring on it! No thank you!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Beef tallow can be found in many sweet products!. I saw it as an ingredient in pies and cakes at the store!. If you want to know what the "natural flavoring" is, call the company!. The number is usually on the packaging!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
The manufacturer is required to report the source of the flavoring, so it really depends on what product your buying!. In many cases it is derived from bi-products of the meat industries!. So when in doubt keep walking!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
if its from dairy i'm pretty sure it'd have to say it!.

It doesn't HAVE to say it, but it usually does!. Check the allergy notice in bold print under the ingredients list!. These days, they use alerts for dairy, wheat, soy, and nuts!.
I don't know about eggs, though!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

It depends what food product it is and what company it comes from!. I normally would search online or contact the company if it does not specify or if it is not a vegan company!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
I trust nobody and nothing!. I need to be sure about my food!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
