Why is Hydrolyzed Vegetable Protein (HVP) not on the American Card?
It’s on the 5 other cards, but according to American food labeling laws, food manufacturers cannot list hydrolyzed vegetable protein as an ingredient. They must list the source of the protein. For example, acceptable labeling would be hydrolyzed corn protein, hydrolyzed wheat protein, etc. However, other countries follow different labeling laws. Therefore, we have listed HVP on the forbidden list in the non-American cards.
