Quick Glance at Vegetarian Menu Items at Restaurant and Quick Service Chains.


Suppliers and ingredients are ever changing. When you are purchasing foods, an exact guarantee of the ingredients is probably not possible. In many cases, when compiling this information, we've labeled items as vegetarian when there could be a few "maybe" ingredients, such as mono- and diglycerides and/or natural flavors. We know that many vegetarians do not eat cheese made with animal rennet rennet, substance containing rennin, an enzyme having the property of clotting, or curdling, milk. It is used in the making of cheese and junket. Rennet is obtained from the stomachs of young mammals living on milk, especially from the inner lining of the fourth, or , but for the purposes of this chart, we've included some cheeses that may contain this animal derivative. Also, some foods are listed as vegetarian as per the ingredient statement; however, they may share a cooking surface with meat. Everyone draws the line as to what he or she will eat in a different place. We've done our best to provide as much information as possible to allow people to make informed decisions. You may want to read our 32-page guide for more complete details about the menu items (see back cover for ordering details).

Note: If you have food allergies, please contact the individual restaurants for their allergen statement. Ingredients change frequently, and egg and dairy products can be masked by other ingredients, such as "natural flavors."
