But then the terrorists will go out of the way to do exactly that which is most anti-Hindu.

How about protein supplements(shakes) that are available over the counter?
[right][snapback]69327[/snapback][/right]<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->Anything that contains an ingredient that's made from any part of an animal that had to die for it/lost a limb etcetera to it, is not vegetarian. By definition. (Hopefully it's clear what I mean. So it excludes milk because it doesn't kill the animal. Such a definition excludes wool - not that anyone eats wool - but this doesn't kill sheep. Where non-violence to fellow animals is concerned: leather kills the cow; in general glues are/were made of horses.)
- Capsules made of gelatine (from cows): non-veg. There are vegetable capsules available, they are marked as such
- All gelatine products therefore: non-veg. For instance, marshmallow and jelly are generally made from gelatine
- Cod-liver oil is made from cods: non-veg
- Cakes, pastry and other stuff that have "animal fat" in it: non-veg (again, animals had to die for this)
