Answer 1

Claim: JELL-O is made from bones and hides.

Status: True.

Underneath JELL-O's jiggly wholesomeness lurks a secret many consumers are disconcerted to learn: JELL-O is made from gelatin, an animal product rendered from the hides and bones of animals.

The production of gelatin starts with the boiling of bones, skins, and hides of cows and pigs, a process that releases the protein-rich collagen from animal tissues. The collagen is boiled and filtered numerous times, dried, and ground to a powder. Because the collagen is processed extensively, the final product is not categorized as a meat or animal product by the federal government. Very strict vegetarians avoid gelatin entirely, but more permissive vegetarians have no problem including JELL-O in their diets.

JELL-O products account for about 80 percent of the gelatin market.

Answer 2

no, its bone marrow, the stuff that is inside of animal's bones. they get it from cows though, and use it insde of the jello because thats what helps it mold.

did you ever cook a turkey before? if you look at their bones when they are frozen, they have this jelly type stuff on them, thats the bone marrow.

i learned that from my foods teacher when i was still in school.

Answer 3

ye animal bone and other stuff are involved in the gelatin industry. gelatin is used in the food industry and jello is one of its products. gelatin is also used in ice cream, cakes and other.
there is no harm in using gelatin on food products as known so far. the psychological effect is the only fear peoples have of this product, it is natural and peoples can fear of chemical ingredients in food and not natural one
