For the LONGEST time, I avoided soft serves (even though I love them) because I thought they had some animal based fats or gelatine in them. After emailing both Hungry Jacks and McDonalds, I have confirmed that their soft serves are in fact vegetarian and the Emulsifiers 471 and 477 are sourced from plant based sources! I hope fellow Aussie vegetarians find this useful 🙂

    Thank you for sharing – had no idea soft serves could be yucky! I’ve checked the UK McFlurries out of panic (because I do love a cheeky Smarties one) and thankfully they are Vegetarian Society approved.

    Forgive my ignorance, but doesn’t dairy always contain animal-based fat?

    Had no idea this was even a possibility, thank you for your service, now I want a McFlurry

    There was a rumour in the UK when I was growing up that McFlurries had chicken fat in, so I didn’t eat them.

    Now I don’t eat them because McDonald’s is trash and supports genocide
