A food is vegan if it contains no animal products and vegetarian if it contains no animal flesh. All of these ingredients are listed on the label, so there's no need for an agency to check this claim for you. The FDA only concerns itself with health claims made by products, really. Other agencies, such as the USDA, would regulate the use of some term that can't be verified by the consumer, such as whether or not the product is organic.
