Can someone find a list of things vegetarians can't eat?

I know about cheese and onion crisps, and obviously gelatine; but I didn't know about Worcester Sauce!

Worcester Sauce contains anchovies.

Most Thai curries (including sauces/pastes you can buy in supermarkets) contains fish sauce/stock.

Chicken & Mushroom Pot Noodles on the other hand are approved by the Vegetarian Society. It's a mad, mad world.

I thought polos were fine, but softmints and extra strong mints aren't.

Meat flavoured crisps are fine, but not cheese and onion!!

Anchovies?!?!

Anchovy - the fish, yes.

It's Walkers Cheese & Onion specifically that contains rennet. Other C&O crisps may be OK - not sure. To be safe - always read the label first...

With regard to polos I found this.

I'm glad I don't eat very many different things, especially sweets, as I didn't know about many of these.

It's just the sort of stupid worrying about microscopic quantities of animal extracts that gives vegetarians a bad name.

Ferrchristsakes, avoid obvious meat by all means, but if your life revolves around inwardly digesting the ingredients list of everything you eat, it must be a very sad life.

I'm a meat eater by the way, in case you hadn't guessed.

I avoid McDonalds, but once I read through their ingredients leaflet once and I think that British fries are vegetarian friendly, and the US fries aren't. It may be the other way around though.

When I worked there fish burgers were cooked in same fryer as veggie burgers.
