Vegetarians, do you eat gelatin?!


Question: Vegetarians, do you eat gelatin!?
do you refrain from eating jello and other foods that have gelatin in them!? Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
Vegetarians can't eat gelatin!. It is bone marrow!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Of course!. As a vegetarian I do not eat animals!. An animal is still an animal no matter how small you dice it up!. I do not eat gelatin (Jello, skittles, starbursts, most mainstream yogurts, gummy candies, most candycorns, Junior mints, etc!.)

I also don't eat rennet, lard,fish oil, etc!.

The one exception that I make is for a few medications that are only avalible in gel capsules!. Not Advil and things - there are other forms of those avalible!. But some prescription drugs!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

No, I don't eat it!. I take extra steps to avoid it in medications too, though that isn't always possible with prescriptions!.

I buy the fake Jello at veganstore!.com, it's delicious and a such a treat! Mixed with some marshmallow (don't buy them from the grocery store, those have gelatin too), pecan and cranberries it makes a delicious Jello-Salad!.

One thing people tend to forget has gelatin is Yogurt!. I'm not lying, you just try to find yogurt that doesn't have gelatin in it!. Dannon Natural and surprisingly the Fit & Active yogurt from Aldi is gelatin free!

no!. i really don't mean to offend anyone when i say this but, i don't think of anyone as a true vegetarian/vegan if they eat animal by products and use over the counter items that have been tested on animals!. i missed marshmallows so much, but i found out about sweet & sara's marshmallows, and i can't wait to try them! for rice crispie treats i'm thinking of using ricemallow cream!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I didn't know things with gelatin was an animal by product, actually!.!.!.So, yeah I've been eating things with it!. :/Www@FoodAQ@Com
