Today, I was eating Jell-O and was reading a fact website, when I read that gelatin is made from the collagen in cow or pig bones. I'm vegetarian. FML

I'm guessing you haven't been a vegetarian too long. Any respectable vegetarian knows gelatin is made from animals. YDI

I can't understand why anyone would actually be a vegetarian. I saw a PETA video about how animals were treated and such when processed for food in history class one day. Ate a new york strip medium rare. yum

it's technically not meat, so you didn't break your diet. I'm also not sure that that's the only way gelatin is made. If you're worried about it look into it more. fyl though, it'd still suck to find that out while eating it.

You mean you THOUGHT you were a vegetarian. Next thing, you'll be moaning about how you just discovered that natural rennet cheeses were made using ground-up calves' stomachs after they've been killed for veal. If you're going to choose a lifestyle for an ethical reason, do your homework. P.S. - ditch the leather shoes and handbag while you're at it.

Damn right! I just don't understand how they didn't know about Geletin. I thought it was common sense...
