I've posted before about the ickiness of Gelatin and how it comes from Animal Feet and Snouts.. Yes, Jello, marshmallows, medicine capsules... They all start as animal bi-products... Just got to give a great Big Ewwww! to that. Thankfully there is Plant derived Gelatin on the market and there are many Veg Friendly items that use it, you just have to look for those.
Well, Today I was at an Herbal Supplement place and was checking out some of their stuff. I noticed a vitamin that came in Gelatin Capsules and instead of not listing anything at all (like the non-veg friendly ones) or listing them as Vegetarian (like the veg friendly ones do).. This one caught me off guard by saying "100% Beef Gelatin Capsules"
So what does that mean? It only has Cow Hoofs, Snouts, Ears and Winkies, instead of having Pigs, horse, Goats or Chicken feet?
Well I'm glad they cleared that up, because I feel much better now! ha ha!
