    While I don’t know about Oreos, ingredients also vary by region. A number of products have different ingredient lists depending on if you buy them in Canada or the US. So something that is could be considered vegan/vegetarian in one region, is not does not meet the requirements in the other region.

      I don’t think the definition of “vegan” changes across borders

      Edit: proof that a vegan diet causes the sense of humor to atrophy

            No they said the ingredients might change. And if there is suddenly an ingredient added or changed to one that is not vegan, the whole product is not vegan anymore.

            But that does not mean the definition or vegan is changing?

        To clarify, ingredients are different on each side of the border. So the same product has vegan ingredients on one side, and non-vegan ingredients on the other

        I also edited my original comment to be clearer
