I recently wandered into a grocery store in Seattle to buy cookies.  Having
previously found some cookies made by Dare (located in Quebec or Ontario,
methinx) to be tasty, I picked up a package of Lemon Cremes that were
prominently labelled "made with vegetable shortening".  Upon reading the fine
print, however, I was horrified to find that they contained beef tallow.
Other flavours too were misleadingly labelled.  I am a little unsure as to
what to do (after all, no one enforces the accuracy of what is printed on the
front, only the ingredients list is required to be accurate).  However, I
promise not to buy another package of Dare cookies...

The moral of the story is:  if you don't think cows are vegetables, be sure to
read the fine print!
