ok!. although morningstar products ARE vegetarian, this doesn't necessarily mean it's a food made only for vegetarians!.!.!. i know several meateaters who use morningstar products!. and one way that morningstar brand has found to get more people of all types to eat their products is make it seem more accessible (giving out "meateater friendly" recipes as well as vegetarian ones)!. i would assume that this may make the product a bit less daunting for the carnivores out there that could be potential buyers!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Not all worcestershire sauces have anchovies!.!.!.
But as stated before, they are not strictly for vegetarians!. You have to think of all the people who buy morningstar to help with their heart conditions, high cholesterol, etc!.
They're products are vegetarian and some are vegan, but not all people who buy their products are :)
It is a brand that is focusing more on health than the whole vegetarian movement ;)Www@FoodAQ@Com

I believe their products are vegetarian, but they are evidently geared towards people trying to reduce their meat intake!. My dad served them to my sister and me when we were kids growing up because he kept (and still keeps) kosher!. Back then, they were in white boxes with orange lettering!.
You can use a veggie ground in place of ground beef, and a vegetarian Worcestershire sauce, if you so please!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Morning star makes vegetarian and meat products!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
You always have to be very careful whenever purchasing foods that appear to be vegetarian!. Some companies try to hide the fact that their products contain either meat or meat byproducts!. Why!? Because they know they may fool people who would otherwise not purchase them!. A case in point is some frozen so-called vegetarian pizza which if you read the fine print indeed contains meaty ingredients!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
