Pourquoi
Tofu is made by curdling soy milk with calcium sulphate, magnesium chloride (nigari) or glucono delta-lactone, all of which are mineral or fermentation-derived. The rare exceptions are flavoured or marinated tofus that add honey, fish sauce or bonito.
Que vérifier sur l'étiquette
- The ingredient list on your own pack — Tofu recipes differ by country and change over time
- Milk, whey, casein, lactose, egg, honey, gelatin, carmine (E120) and shellac (E904) in the list
- "May contain milk" is an allergen cross-contamination note, not an ingredient — most vegans still buy it

Questions fréquentes
Is Tofu certified vegan?
Certification is separate from the recipe. Many products with no animal ingredients carry no vegan mark because the maker will not rule out shared production lines. Check the pack for a registered vegan trademark, and treat the ingredient list as the primary evidence.
Does the answer change between countries?
Often, yes. The same brand name can use different fats, emulsifiers, colours or whey depending on the plant that made it, so always read the local label rather than an answer written for another market.
