what candies contain gelatin??
2007-08-22 13:59:12 · update #1
Some jelly beans, almost anything 'gummy,' some cereals (especially any with marshmallow bits), & if you're not vegan beware of many yogurt & sour cream brands.
It's always best to read labels before buying things-- I even found gelatin as an ingredient in BBQ potato chips!

Kelloggs frosted wheats usually have gelatin. Gummy worms and other gummy candies. A few have koser gelatin, but be vigilant in you ingredients label checking. Jello obviously has gelatin, pudding often does, certain types of gum have gelatin. Many altoids candies have gelatin. Ice breaker gum has gelatin.

Loads of things have gelatin in, it's disguisting:
many deserts do such of types of yoghurts, choc gateaus, profiteroles, jelly (obv) just about all sweets
Just read the product before you buy it, that way you'll soon become familiar of all the veggie products

frosted mini-wheats, altoids, some gel-cap medicines and supplements (even Omega-3 capsules that veggies need are often in gelatin capsules), some granola bars. Marshmallows and rice crispie treats.
Apples do not have gelatin in them, but horses do (in raw form)

first of all anything that isn't a fresh vegetable or fruit... a bean or a potato...
is not vegetarian/vegan.
anything processed is most likely going to be packed with chemicals.. and most chemicals are derived from....
animals! ding!
and alot of the vegan/vegetarian processed foods guess what!? aren't VEGETARIAN or VEGAN friendly after all!
you'd be amazed what has 'meat' in it.
most cereals... most candies.. even chocolate.. ice creams.. quite a few of your soy products... sodas.. alcoholic beverages...
this isn't including... hair care.. feminine products... makeup and so on... which include animal in some way.
gelatin is just one thing.. there's tons of other chemical names and additive names you got to watch out for this also includes.. MSG which is found in many vegan fakey meat products. watch out for casein also..
read this one article just about soy cheeses...

gummy sweets as mentioned above, usually frosted/iced poptarts, most frosted cereals, gel-caps medicine, thats all I can think of off the top of my head. Also, you may already know this, but it is also called "gelling agent", so watch out for that too!

Marshmallows!
Fruit gummies!
Jell-o!
Pop-tarts!
Those are the main ones that I need to stop eating.
Good luck!

I like to only juice my own vegetables. It makes for a lovely treat.
I think I may start a support group for juicertarians if any of you would like to join.
