Talk:Bounty (chocolate bar)

message: Bounty is made using whey containing the enzyme rennet.  Rennet is derived from a calf's stomach.  This means that Bounty is unsuitable for vegetarians.
:According to the wiki article on Rennet up to 80% of the global market share of the enzyme rennet is produced by the genetically engineered chymosin (the active enzyme in rennet) using bacteria, fungi or yeast. If Bounty uses this GE chymosin, then it can be called vegetarian. The question is does Bounty uses it? And with an international product like this, is every recipe the same? I'm considering contacting the manufacturers here (in Canada) to see if they can tell me since I'm a vegetarian and would like to know for my own personal benefit. I don't know if an answer provided in an email from them would be admissible as reliable source for the article though. Elnauron (talk) 18:46, 13 December 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: Suitability for Vegetarians

message: The article currently states that Bounty is not available in the United States, and then lists (inappropriately located) in the Trivia section, that they are available in the "states". Not only should "states" be capitalised, but it is too informal to just say "the states". If they are indeed available in the US, which I can't verify, the main section of the article should be updated accordingly, and the item should be removed from the Trivia section.--Jeffro77 10:58, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually, they are available in the US...there's a whole case of them sitting on the shelf at the supermarket around the corner from where I live. I don't know how to go about verifying this, but if someone would like to try, check the grocery isle that has international foods or something to that effect, and they're with the imports from England.Ohnoitsthefuzz (talk) 14:53, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

text:  Why is the World Market called out on this page? Seems almost advertise-y. I didn't edit it because it looks like it's been there from the earliest revision, but it seems wrong to me. I'd suggest it just say that it's available in many international markets or sections of grocery stores. Thoughts? Sujal (talk) 20:23, 27 January 2017 (UTC)

text: Bounty Bars are actually still available at World Market stores in the United States. Dose not mean there no longer available in the United State when you can still get them at World Market stores, so there. SECREngineNo592 (talk) 09:06, 13 November 2023 (UTC)

thread_title:  Cherry Bounty back in Australia 

message: I went to a World Market (store) in my hometown on Friday Nov 10th. Even thought Bounty is no longer domestically sold within the US, World Market stores in the US still currently sell Bounty Bars, it's not just available on via import sales.

replies: text: According to its Wikipedia article World Market is , so it is not remarkable that it sells chocolate bars from the UK/Canada, there's no reason to single it out by name in this article. Belbury (talk) 09:42, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
