More on Bovril
There’s a question as to whether Bovril is vegan or not. Here’s a link to a BBC Web site report that talks about Bovril going veg. Here’s another link to Wikipedia that says Bovril had to re-include beef ingredients because the European Commission told them they had to. The official Bovril Web site is too stupid for words and totally unhelpful. A fine example of too much money thrown at a Web site to make it clever but fails to include the most basic information.
So, what’s a Grumpy Vegan to do?
Buy Marmite instead.

The philosophical leader of the animal rights movement helped construct a legal framework around the issue—and whatever your stand, he’ll make you rethink it.
