EspañolANIMAL PRODUCT
'Animal products' are either produced by an animal or taken from the body of an animal. The term is primarily used in relation to diet, particularly for vegetarians, vegans and those concerned with maintaining a Kosher, Halaal, or raw food diet.
The term 'Animal product' is generally not applied to products made from fossilized or decomposed animals. Petroleum is formed from the ancient remains of marine animals but is not considered an animal product. Crops grown in soil fertilized with animal remains are also not considered animal products.
