This refers only to Tropicana Pure Premium drinks which can be found on this page
To make matters clear - some of their flavors contain cochineal/carmine, the insect coloring
Their orange juices containing Omega - 3 contains fish oil and fish gelatin which is permissible for us, alhamdulillah.
XYZ:
We'd be delighted to answer your questions about Tropicana Orange Juice.
With regards to animal derived ingredients being included, most of Tropicana's juice products are vegetarian/vegan. There are a few juices which contain cochineal/carmine (which will be listed in the ingredients if contained in a product) and Tropicana Healthy Heart Orange Juice containing Omega-3.
We began listing carmine, a natural color, several years ago on the ingredient labels of those juices containing this ingredient. Primarily, carmine is used in our non-refrigerated juices. However, Tropicana's packaging is clearly labeled and complies with current government regulations.
The source of Omega-3's used in Tropicana Healthy Heart Orange Juice is called MEG-3 (fish oil and fish gelatin). It contains tilapia, sardine and anchovy.
We hope this information is helpful, Lazeena. Thank you for your business and interest in our products.
