Cochineal
Hi Tony,
Shopping for yoghurt fills me with despair!
Too many red fruit yoghurts are coloured with cochineal - surely the manufacturers could find an alternative or better still, leave artificial colourant out altogether?
One has to look on every individual pot in assorted multi-packs for the vegetarian symbol, as some flavours in these mixed packs are not suitable for vegetarians due to the added cochineal colouring.
I have written to one large manufacturer about this irritation and they gave an assurance that they are looking for natural alternatives to cochineal.
