Any pork?** A: There's nothing on the label indicating this product is 100% vegetarian, if that's what you're asking. On the the hand, there is also nothing listed in the ingredients that's specifically an animal sourced product. I use this in my salads and I prefer it's taste, texture, shelf-life, and convenience to actual bacon pieces. If you're a "health-nut" or a "holy-devout spiritualist", I'm not sure why you would be eating this anyway, but I prefer these to real bacon for my salads and this particular brand of bacon-bits is better than most others I have tried. **Q: I am confused. I called McCormick a while back and their phone representative told me these were not vegan.** A: Our Imitation Bacon Bits contain no MSG and are made from soy flour, making them a welcome addition to vegetarian and vegan dishes. ~ Erica **Q: It this gluten free?** A: Hi Sara...This product does not contain wheat or wheat products but is not certified gluten free. ~Tina ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great with salads and egg sandwiches *by J***S on 13 June 2021* Difficult to find these days at the local marts, glad that this is offered here and reasonably priced.
