Is Galaxy chocolate suitable for vegetarians?

* Ingredients: While the main ingredients in Galaxy chocolate (sugar, cocoa butter, milk powder, etc.) are generally considered vegetarian-friendly, some Galaxy products may contain trace amounts of animal-derived ingredients. This could be due to:

* Lactose: Some Galaxy chocolate varieties contain lactose, which is a milk product. While most vegetarians consume dairy, some follow a vegan diet and avoid all animal products.

* Gelatin: Gelatin is a protein derived from animal collagen. While not common, some Galaxy products could contain gelatin in their emulsifiers or other ingredients.

* Cross-contamination: Even if the ingredients themselves are vegetarian, there's a possibility of cross-contamination during manufacturing processes. This could occur if the same equipment is used for both vegetarian and non-vegetarian products.

To ensure a Galaxy product is suitable for your diet:

1. Check the label carefully: Look for any mention of animal-derived ingredients, such as gelatin, lactose, or animal-based emulsifiers.

2. Contact the manufacturer: If you're unsure about a specific product, contact Mars Wrigley (the manufacturer of Galaxy chocolate) directly. They can provide you with the most up-to-date information on their ingredients and manufacturing processes.

Ultimately, it's best to err on the side of caution and rely on the information provided by the manufacturer or contact them directly for clarification.
