Use Of Animal Based Rennet By Masterfoods Ltd

EDM number 1481 in 2006-07, proposed by Janet Anderson on 15/05/2007.

That this House notes with concern the decision by Masterfoods Ltd to start using animal based rennet in their confectionery products, such as Mars Bars and Snickers; recognises that this decision will mean that many people are unable to eat their products; agrees with the Vegetarian Society that the company's move is incomprehensible; considers this to be a regressive step in contrast to other producers who are removing animal products from their ingredients; and calls upon Masterfoods to reverse its decision without delay,

This motion has been signed by a total of 73 MPs, 3 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
