Vegan Pasta Noodles

We ran 366 pasta noodles through our vegan rules: 24 pass, 12 need a label check, and 130 don't make it.

Plain durum pasta is vegan by nature. Egg pasta is not, and instant noodle seasonings lean on meat and dairy powders. The split below is almost exactly that: bare pasta passes, while filled and flavoured products need their sachets checked.
