hidden animal ingredients in your soup

Hidden animal ingredients in your soup and sauces and snacks

Those hidden animal ingredients are just lurking, lurking in all sorts

of foods, keeping us almost vegetarians, whether we want to be almost

or not.

But no worries.

Because, once again, we invited Lesley back to tell us about liquid

hazards to our vegetarian diets.

And don't forget, you just have to click here to enter the contest for

Yesterday, Lesley told us about gelatin. Today, she has graciously

agreed to tell us about liquid hazards.

Stock and broth

Dead critter juice seems to be a popular seasoning for a lot of

pre-packaged and processed foods. I'm not sure why it's so prevalent,

but I assume that it's at least partly due to the abundance of source

material for this by-product.

* Some ramen noodles (as if the sodium weren't bad enough)

* Various chips and snack foods such as K.C. Masterpiece Baked Lays

and other barbeque flavored snacks.

* Many Asian sauces, including Ponzu and oyster sauces (it's not

like an oyster cracker--there's actually oyster broth in there)

* Stove Top stuffing

* Soups and sauces such as A-1 Steak Sauce and onion soups. Animal

stocks are very popular soup bases.

* Mexican rice and other packaged rice blends (this includes that

orange stuff on the side at your favorite Tex-Mex joint, too).
