Q: Are these vegeterian? Does not seem to say on the label.

BUYER BEWARE. The 100-count bottle, at the time of this writing, is vegetarian and should be safe for people like me with alpha-gal. The 250-count bottle is NOT vegetarian, as it has gelatin. Because of this deception, I nearly took something that I’m highly allergic to before I mindlessly glanced at the ingredients list.

Q: doe it contain any soy, soybean, soy oil?

Yes, they contain soy (also corn). I just found this on their website: "Other Ingredients: Safflower Oil, Modified Starch (from corn), Vegetable Glycerin, Carrageenan, Disodium Phosphate, Medium Chain Triglycerides, Soy Lecithin."

Q: Does it really smell like a rotten fish or meat?

I have chemical sensitivities and a very strong sense of smell. I've been buying Solgar Vitamin E for some time and have never noticed an odor of rotten fish or meat.I smelled my bottle just now - there is a very faint smell of oil, but it is not off-putting. I never would have noticed it if not for this question. I suggest that anyone who does experience a bad smell contact Solgar and give them the lot number from the bottle.
