Vegan / Vegetarian labelling

Which products are considered Vegan?
Vegan foods are foods that:

contain no animal ingredients.
The ingredients have not been tested on animals by and/or on behalf of the company.
the aids used in the manufacturing process are vegetarian.
do not contain genetically modified organisms from animal genes.
Which products are considered Vegetarian?
The definition of vegan applies to vegetarian products, except that milk, colostrum, eggs, honey, beeswax, propolis and Eriolipos (lanolin) may be added or used in their production.

As is widely known, vegans are extremely careful about the identity of the products they consume. Any product that does not make it clear that it does not contain any kind of animal derivative is rejected without a second thought. This fact causes several complications in the production processes and product recipes.

It is widely known that milk cannot be used in vegan products. But what about lactitol?
