Dear Vegans: Would you eat McVities HobNobs?!
I am going on a day trip with my vegan brother and wanted to get some biscuits he could eat!. The ingredients are listed as: rolled oats, wholemeal, sugar, vegetable oil, glucose-fructose sirup, raising agents (sodium bicarbonate, ammonium bicarbonate), salt
contains gluten!.
Now according to my knowledge that should be ok,
HOWEVER it also says: produced on a line handling nuts, milk, soya
So I was wondering if that last bit would stop a vegan from eating them, that they could have come in contact with milk!?
I can't get hold of my brother to ask him myself, otherwise I would!.
Thanks for your help!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Answers:
The warning about being produced on a line handling milk etc is put there for people with allergies!. It's to cover the manufacturer's back in the very unlikely event that a microscopic particle of an allergen finds its way into the product and an allergy sufferer has a reaction!.
The lines where the food is produced are thoroughly cleaned between uses!.
I'm vegan and I'm happy to eat food that carries that warningWww@FoodAQ@Com

Having recently (and mistakenly!) purchased a packet of them, I'm surprised that ANYBODY would want to eat such horrible things - I thought they were tasteless, dry, horrible things !Www@FoodAQ@Com
yes vegans eat those!. some extremists don't though, so unless he is, you should be fine!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
He is probaly too weak due to the lack of important nutrients in his diet to lift a Hob Nob!.
You would probaly be better off with a bag of sawdust for him!.
I will have the pork sctratchings please!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
