Does chocolate chunk contain an allergen?
It depends on how it was made. Open Food Facts does not link chocolate chunk to an allergen, and Bravoora’s label checker does not read the name as one. The label must name any allergen it carries.
Is chocolate chunk vegan?
It depends on the make. Some kinds of chocolate chunk are made with an animal product and a label rarely says which, so a vegan profile gets Heads up. It is vegetarian.
A pack can differ from the usual recipe: the app reads the label in your hand.
