Hi, Odd Socks ..... weclome to TIBB!
I think this should explain it:
Quote:
Bovril, the beefy drink beloved of football fans, has been stripped of its main meaty ingredient in a bid to boost sales, its maker has confirmed.
Unilever says vegetarians can now enjoy the drink and the move will counter concerns overseas in the wake of BSE.
The drink's usual 40% of beef stock has been replaced with a savoury yeast mix at the firm's Burton-on-Trent factory.
Unilever said in blind taste tests 10% did not notice any difference and 50% preferred the new product.

So, yes you can still get Bovril .... but it's now a beefless variety!
