No they do not contain pork in any way. What they contain is gelatine which is an animal product from cattle which certain religions hold sacred as you can see by the starving people of India and all these cattle roaming around doing what they like when they like where they like, which is then dried and used to light fires to keep these poor people warm.However that 'product' is not in any of these bars.

Did you read this article??? It's the rennet from the stomachs of calves. Its used for making the milk chocolate. Any vegetarian that goes so far as to complain on this is just dumb and taking it to extremes.

I don't think it's pork but it is cattle and it won't be halaal so stay away from it I would say, it's better to be safe than sorry.

The article says they will be using rennet from calves. Where are the pigs in this?

I do not eat those items.
Not because of the pork ....because of the sugar.
Sugar is more spurious than pork.
Who forbids pork, anyway?
Are you Jewish?

It isn't pork, it's from a calf's stomach. Gross enough, but not from a pig.

I have nothing against pork so I guess I can still eat them. You know, they should just make a snickers bacon bar, now that would be good...yummy.
