have some HEAT!! the reason they lump them together is because they sometimes use pork gelatin in jelly sweets and islams and Muslems are not allowed to eat pork.

Watch on youtube "Food Unwrapped", the gelatine (in sweets) can come from pig skin, the Channel 4 programme shows a mega sized German factory processing tons and tons of pig skins. Gelatine is pure pork protein.

These strawberries are lovely & suitable for vegetarians.
I'm not entirely sure why the Op has mentioned halal too.
As a Muslim I know it's halal by virtue of it being vegetarian (and knowing haribos don't use alcohol!).

this just simply isn't true, not in the slightest, and shows you have no knowledge or grasp of the meat industry.

No, it's about vegetarian AND halal sweets... And while it may make bigots feel a bit better about their own animal cruelty, I'm not sure the animals being raised in industrial conditions then slaughtered notice much difference...
If they decreed you can't eat pig then I imagine they would care whether you eat pig or not. Obviously the religious have a screw loose, but obeying the commands they believe come from God is one of their more logical positions!

Haha, because creator of the universe, divine astral being capable of inventing time, matter and laws of physics, has nothing better to do than checking for halal compliance of sweets.
Makes me laugh every time some religious moron mentions this.
If the packets say suitable for vegetarian then the source of gelatine is from plant extracts, this is widely available in supermarkets to cater for people who dont eat meat etc. but require gelatine to make jelly type food. Nothing to do with halal meat whatsoever (unless it doesnt state suitable for vegetarian).

Oh shush. I give zero **** about you eating vegetarian, or vegan, or whatever, complete respect for your choices. Do you go up to smokers and call them future cancer sufferers? Or drinkers and call them out for future cirrhosis? And for killing animals, I assume you also do the same to the military for murder as an industry as well? Or is it just animals you care about?

You realise that in the UK basically all animals for halal meat are stunned first, like regular meat, and then their throat is slit. They feel no pain, and in all fairness we're killing animals regardless once we're past the point of stunning them. Its not like they're tortured, its a very quick death for them. Plus, I tend to find halal meat is better value for money, as the butchers are usually cheaper than non-halal butchers.

Anyway this thread is about vegetarian sweets not torturing animals to death the evolutionary backwards halal way

I'm sure observant Muslims care... I'd imagine one of the primary ways they have of knowing a product is Halal is the Halal logo, just as one of my primary ways of knowing a product is vegetarian is the vegetarian logo.
Though if you don't care I'm not overly sure why you bothered to comment in the first place?

Halal meat is halal meat. Halal however is a term for anything that is allowed in islam

I think some Halal labelled sweets in Asda/Tesco were also vegetarian at one point.
