Juicy Fruit Grapermelon and Strappleberrygums use
shellac as a coating agent. Thedifferent varieties of our ALTOIDS mints do contain very small quantities of gelatinwhich is derived from pork .Gelatin does not impart any flavor to ALTOIDS, but it's a necessary ingredientfor the texture of the mint. When we use gelatin it is thoroughly purifiedand dried during its manufacturing process. Our staff is continually lookingat alternatives to animal gelatin, but at the moment we've not been ableto find a substitute that produces the same quality you've come to lovewith ALTOIDS.
Our LifeSaver gummies do containsmall quantities of gelatin, which is also derived from pork. It followsthe same drying and purifying process as with the
Altoids. If your diet does not allow you to consume animal byproducts suchas dairy, our CremeSaver line does contain cream, which is a dairy byproductOn the same note, our LifeSaver Fusions and LifeSaver gummies are producedon the same line as our
CremeSavers, so there is a chanceof cross contamination. Our CremeSaver soft chews also contain a smallamount of gelatin, which is pork based. We hope this information has beenhelpful and thanks again for contacting the Wrigley Company.
Sincerely,
Ryné King
