Are Nerds Vegan?

May 19, 2022 by Samuel Warde Leave a Comment

are nerds vegan

Most of the nerds I know are not vegan, but is Nerds candy vegan? Nerds come in two flavors: strawberry and grape. These flavors are typically sold as a side-by-side combo, and they both contain the same ingredients – they are essentially just little pellets of artificially colored and flavored sugar. Unfortunately, Nerds use the insect-derived pigment, carmine, which means Nerds are not vegan.

Willy Wonka Nerds, Strawberry and Grape Ingredients:

  • Dextrose,
  • Sugar,
  • Malic Acid, and Less than 2% of Corn Syrup,
  • Artificial Flavors,
  • Carnauba Wax,
