Most of those gravy packets are made with some sort of meat base. AS far as "brown gravy" goes I am not really sure...you would have to check the ingredients on the back to see if any meat is listed. You know you should be able to boil vegetable stock down and add a little corn starc, flour and water (all mixed together before hand). You slowly pour the mixture into the boiling veggie stock as you whip it in very quickly.

You can buy vegetarian and vegan gravies and stocks. Generally in GB they will have the Vegetarian Society's seedling 'v' symbol on or be marked with a green leaf or V and the words suitable for vegetarians. . Most supermarkets will stock a few different brands. You can sometimes get a lovely Vegetarian onion gravy which makes a nice change!!! Some brands will even be lower in sodium or fat !!!

Traditionally gravy is made with the meat juices from the roast. Shop brought gravy would contain dried beef or chicken stock. However you can also easily buy or make vegetarian gravy. So of course you are still consuming part of the turkey. I am thinking you are not serious (trolling!) with this question because the answer is sooooo obvious. Traditional oyster sauce is made with boiled oysters. Vegetarian brands use mushrooms, as in oyster mushrooms. .

No. Many contain animal fat etc. There is a vegetarian brand in many grocery stores called Serv-a-gravy that is vegetarian friendly and most health food stores have a few gravies specifically made for vegetarians.
I've made gravy out of veg. stock and flour and added Kitchen Bouquet to it and it was quite good!

Most gravy mixes contain one of the following, Lactose, Milk, Beef extract or Beef fat. There are certain mixes which are vegan friendly. Check out a good supermarket or Vegan store. Any gravy made from broth can contain meat traces.
Hope this helps.

If it is brown gravy, it is most likely flavored with some kind of beef stock. That means it is NOT vegetarian! Even if it has a little meat product, it is NOT vegetarian. Read that list of ingredients before you eat anything.
White gravy is sometimes made with just flour and water, but then it doesn't have much flavor. I don't know what they would flavor it with, if they didn't put something in it.
You'd be much better off making your own, or going to a health food store and getting one that you know doesn't have meat by-product in it.

Hain makes gravy packets that are vegetarian!
Other than that the answer is a resounding NO!
Gravy is *way* to easy to make, why waste time with the packets anyway?

Check the ingredients on the pack. Most are made from meat extract otherwise I don't see how you can call it gravy, which is after all thickened meat juices. I am sure there are veggie alternatives, use veggie bouillon blocks or yeast extract and make your own.

There is a British gravey called BISTO that makes a great vegatarian gravy with no meat in it. Look for it in a international aisle of a supermarket or a British grocery store.

Some are, some aren't. Look at the ingredients.
Onion gravy is often veggie, and I think Bisto does a veggie gravy also!
