Vegetarian/vegan fizzy cola bottles £1.00 at Poundland!! Yay!!

Ahhh, now I understand. At first I thought you were talking about vegetarian cola and I wondered how the hell a soft drink could be anything but veggie, but now I realise it's sweets so presumably these are with vegetarian gelatin or whatever. I dont really care one way or the other, but heat added because it obviously means so much to you...

Yuck...cheap, nasty sweets.

‌

Lol thanks It took all my strength not to sing and do a little dance in Poundland when I spotted them! Happy days!!

Do bear in mind if we all go Veggie every single farm animal will have to be killed.

If the process for producing these does not involve boiling animal bones then I am not interested

I want some :-)

Have you actually tried these? They're usually much more expensive than a pound and are all natural-what's not to like?!

Good spot for the veggies out there

Good spot and price. Also good option if you're jewish or muslim, as the gelatin often comes from pigs.

Crikey - I've just heated a vegetarian posting - These are strange times we live in!

Mainly due to niknoks enthusiasm and good humour

yep, that is 100% true isn't it, vegetarians never need milk, cheese, eggs, wool or anything like that! thanks for pointing that out you are a genius clearly!

Ate 2 packs of these once, regretted it at 4am when they destroyed my digestive system.

Voted hot as I niknoks21's enthusiasm and passion for these cola bottles. You really must love them if you were considering dancing and singing when you found them. I love it.

You thinking vegan.
I can't remember the exact figures, but if the world went veggie or vegan the area needed to produce food for the population would be considerably less.
With more then enough free room to have massive wildlife reservations.

Great find OP its hard finding non-animal gelatine sweets.

Good post

I just walked past poundland and never went in, wish I had now.

Might nip down tomorrow lunch time

When I found these I lept up into the air and let out a little squeal of pure delight. I then shouted out 'ooh woopdy doos, look what I found!'. It really made my day. My week even.

Correct but Fanta is veggie friendly now though.

I knew about the giant strawberries but not about the cola bottles, will pop down after work

Would like to taste it! Also does that mean all Coke,Pepsi,etc have some meat in them?!(_;)

What's the problem with gelatine?

I will look out for these when i'm next in town, i didn't go much on veggie Percy pigs though

I stocked up on cola bottles, jelly beans, mini gems and mini bears when they were on offer in Holland and Barrett.

Nice, lets hope they taste as good as, if not better then the gelatine ones!

Really hard to find veggie jelly type sweets - thanks.

Yes that's true, I found out about the fish gelatine myself years ago and stopped drinking it, but recently found out it's now suitable for vegetarians.

Great news about the cola bottles... used to love these when I was little (before I found out what gelatine was!)

Let's hope manufacturers of other gelatine containing products follow suit

No it was just fanta, which is now apparently vegetarian. Kia ora has something in it as well.
EDIT: There's more than i thought actually. "However, vegans and vegetarians should note that a few of our drinks contain small traces of fish gelatine, which is used as a stabiliser for the beta-carotene colour. These products are Lilt, Lilt Zero, Kia-Ora Orange Squash No Added Sugar and Schweppes Orange Squash. Five Alive Apple Five Fruit Blend also contains traces of gelatine."

If you eat meat I'd stick with haribo but these are by far the best veggie version I've found.

Aside from the points other people have made, no one expects the whole planet to go veggie overnight... Ideally they would be killed as normal but not replaced. (Well, ideally they wouldn't be killed at all but that's even more unrealistic than man losing its lust for killing!)

This moronic argument is only beaten by the "we need to eat meat because we have incisors" one!

Just popped in to see if the first comment I'd see would be some kind of meat related post.

Praise be for it was a picture of a steak! Truly the least predictable joke ever. Excellent Work!

I had my incisors removed when I went veggie and got a 'Meat is Murder" tattoo. It was just a fad but when I tried to go back to meat I just couldn't chew it properly so had to go veggie again. Yay for the cola bottles!

Thanks hope they have plenty of stock

Currently the UK imports vast quantities of grain to feed livestock instead of feeding people. We also import 40% of food for human consumption besides that. If the populace ate grain directly, instead of eating it via an animal, we would have enough land to grow enough to feed the entire UK population. (Plus it would result in a massive drop in heart disease, obesity, bowel cancer etc etc......)

Genius,

They are all going to be killed anyway. At least if we all went vegetarian, that would be the last round of killing, rather than the current ongoing cycle of breeding animals whose life purpose is death.

or just release them into some rural fields/pastures?

must be the worst argument I have heard against becoming vegetarian

Yum, hope there's some in my local one.
