Vegetarian

All products marked suitable for vegetarians on the SupermarketOwnBrandGuide.co.uk are deemed so by the manufacturer/s or by the supermarket/s selling them.

The Vegetarian Society defines a vegetarian, 'As someone living on a diet of grains, pulses, nuts, seeds, vegetables and fruits, with or without the use of dairy products and eggs. A vegetarian does not eat any meat, poultry, game, fish, shellfish or crustacea, or slaughter by-products.'

More information can be found at: www.vegsoc.org


Organic

All products marked organic on the SupermarketOwnBrandGuide.co.uk are deemed so by the producers/manufacturers or by the supermarket/s selling them.

It is generally agreed that to be labelled organic the product/s on our shelves are free from: conventional pesticides, man made fertilizers, human waste, chemicals, food additives, antibiotics and growth hormones. However, some countries and organic bodies implement tougher laws than others:  no genetically modified ingredients, for example.

Eco-Friendly

All products marked Eco on the SupermarketOwnBrandGuide.co.uk are deemed so by the producers/manufacturers or by the supermarket/s selling them.

Product/s labelled Eco on our shelves are derived from mineral and plant based material.  As they are not based on petrochemical ingredients there is no residue from chemicals – which in turn helps the environment and lowers the consumer’s level of pollution.
