    Gelatin is a protein produced by partial hydrolysis of collagen extracted from the bones, connective tissues, organs and some intestines of animals. It's up to you, but gelatin is not vegetarian.

    Yup I've never seen gelatin in any jam! Always pectin. And I read alot of labels! So don't feel bad. :)

    Although your jam might not have gelatin...you should watch out for marshmellows if you haven't already. They do contain gelatin.

    Yeah think he is lol

    If it contains gelatin they legally have to put it on the label so everyone can see!
     
  8. Make your own jam and then you will be sure exactly what's in it.

    Ditto.

    Really, most of the gelatin-containing foods are things you shouldn't eat anyway: marshmallows, candies, toaster pastries. . .

    I haven't really managed to give up peppermints yet. Altoids are the only non-veg product I consume. I still consider myself veg. I don't often have access to the ones I like, so it's like one box per month, but then I also wear leather so I'm a vegetarian black sheep anyway. :p
