[edit] Ovomaltine was bought by ABF

Ovomaltine is no more a Novartis brand.

[edit] Ovaltine or Ovomaltine

If Ovomaltine is the original name, why it is not the article title? JeDi 15:14, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Presumably because it hasn't been Ovomaltine in the UK since the early 1900's. And Ovomaltine has a redirect to ovaltine. J.P.Lon 10:10, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

Also I think since very few people call it Ovomaltine, we should stick to what people commonly refer it to as. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.126.75.181 (talk) 23:02, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Ingredients

The article states that egg and malt were originally in the ingredients. This infers that they no longer are, but my jar clearly states that egg is still included(among other ingredients): Barley and malt extract, whey concentrate, fat reduced cocoa, sugar, calcium carbonate, hydrogenated veg. oil, magnesium carbonate, eggs, etc. J.P.Lon 10:23, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
