By most common definitions, yes. It can be bought, sold, and traded. The most common form is generic. In the grocery store, it's just there. There aren't many varieties or competing brands like apples or sodas.

On the other hand, gelatin is a generic term itself. There are many uses, sources, purities, and qualities. It is a class of protein.

If you meant something to be traded, yes. What exactly did you want to know?
