residues in red wines Sender: Ian

Salut-Hi interested,

Frankly, I am uninterested in whether anyone else is a meat eater, a vegan, vegetarian, ovo-lacto-vegetarian, nor any of the other variants. You make your choices and live with them. I make mine and live with them. However, I will not concede any kind of moral high ground about not eating meat, fish, eggs or milk or any thing produced from them.

So why should you EXPECT to get such food in a meat restaurant any more than I should EXPECT to be able to get meat in a vegetarian restaurant? You seem to be wanting to apply one set of rules for vegetarians and another to those who eat meat.

For example, I run a B&B. I serve dinner. I am prepared to bet that a vegetarian eating at my house would expect to be served a meat-free meal, while at the same time the same person would refuse to cook ME meat if I ate at theirs. That's dual standards.

But coming to the subject of the thread, therte is no possible way of telling whether any animal product has been used in the production of a wine unless the winemaker chooses to tell you.
