That's excellent news. My master plan to rid all edible food for vegetarians is in progress! Slowly I will force all those lettuce eating fools to eat meat.
Vegetarians across the world are boycotting Mars Bars at it emerges they have a small amount of animal in them.
In their defence Mars said, (sic)
'Its ok, theres only a bit of meat in them and a lot of vegetarians eat a little bit of meat anyway'

Rats! Will I still be able to have a ciggie when I next visit?Is it just me that keeps reading this thread title wrong?
Vegetarians were more likely to be female, to be of higher occupational social class and to have higher academic or vocational qualifications than non-vegetarians.
Of course! 3 million potential customers is a lot to lose!So Mars have backtracked. PR stunt? People power? Nope - money talks
Anyway I was reading this

If God hadn't intended man to eat meat, he wouldn't have invented such diverse and tasty animals like ham, pork and bacon. mmmmm
And the holy bible says it's ok to eat meat, so according to that, all veggetarians will be going straight to hell along with gays and non-believers.
I don't believe that they would dare increase the price, but they will certainly shrink the size of the bars again.If I was cynical I would suggest this move will precede a price hike in excess of the difference between using animal and vegetable rennet. A spokesperson will say the animal rennet was introduced to keep costs down and avoid an otherwise inevitable price increase, which will now have to be introduced

Is that a common problem Alan? Your hands seeming to be bigger while things are shrinking?I don't believe that they would dare increase the price, but they will certainly shrink the size of the bars again.
Either my hands are getting bigger or chocolate is shrinking.
Don't really know, my stomach is tooo big to checkIs that a common problem Alan? Your hands seeming to be bigger while things are shrinking?
One word - WagonwheelsYou're probably right though. If the cheapskates can't find one way to maximise profits, they'll find another. Usually it is the incredible shrinking chocolate bar that happens............... I mean I remember when a standard Mars bar seemed to be getting bigger as I ate it, now it's gone in three bites!
Yup. I wondered if my eyesight was playing up last time I bought them for the kids! But no, they have shrunk, up to 30% I think!One word - Wagonwheels
That's the whole point. They did threaten a boycott! And that's why Mars backed down!This is funny...if you are a veggie and a Mars has meat products in it DON'T EAT IT! Eat a carrot or something else...what's the big deal? You choose to not eat meat so in the same way that you don't eat a steak, stay away from the "infected" chocolate bars too. No more pampering to minority "lifestyle" groups...you chose to be like that so live with the consequences[!
