A reader had a question about Loma Linda products being vegan. I was able to find out the following information.<\/p>\n

When I looked at the products on the website, many of the items that were labelled vegetarian did have either egg in them or non-fat dried milk. The items in question that didn’t have these ingredients but were still labelled vegetarian are in fact vegan and were not updated to be labeled vegan. I found this out by speaking with Declan at Atlantic Natural Foods. I also brought to their attention a product that was labeled vegan but contained egg whites. Declan said they will be changing the information on their website soon. The company stated that the “Choplets, Vegetarian Burger, and Chili are vegan. These recipes\/products were around way before vegan became mainstream, so they were labeled as vegetarian. We are changing the labels in the near future to reflect that they are indeed 100% vegan.”<\/p>\n
