ARE SKITTLES SUITABLE FOR VEGETARIANS?!


Question: ARE SKITTLES SUITABLE FOR VEGETARIANS?
i heard beetles are crushed for colouring of some skittles is this true

Answers:

They are now. In the US, they used to have gelatin and a dye made from beetles, but Mars has since changed the ingredients to make them all vegetarian.



No, they are not. They contain gelatin. What you are referring to is cochineal, and I'm not sure if they have that in them, but they do have gelatin and that is not vegetarian.



lol. read the back of the packet they are obbliged to put it in suitable for vegatarians or not



No that's not true :) artificial colors and flavors are what goes into skittles. Oh and I forgot rainbows and love :)



Last time I checked they were but I would check back of packet just to make sure :)

Hope this helps!
