Is coloring vegan?
? Ambiguous
It depends: coloring can be plant- or animal-derived depending on the manufacturer. Plant, mineral… or animal (carmine).
Where does it come from?
Plant, mineral… or animal (carmine). 'Coloring' without a code can hide insect-derived carmine (E120). Reds and pinks deserve a double check.
