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

You're kind of a naive vegetable aren't you. Most things you commonly eat are from both plants and animals and does it change anything? Not really it's just a chemical and bonds. Get over yourself

I know loads of people have probably already said this, but HHOOWWW did you not know Gelatin isn't suitable for vegetarians? I'm pretty sure everyone knows that! I'm a vege and it's common sense to me. When you have special dietry needs you check the packaging of everything anyway just to be sure. I hope you realise you can't eat things like Haribo, either. I just really don't get how they didn't know that...

YDI for being vegetarian and not knowing that. Remember sausages are made of meat too.

No offence, but I learnt that when I was like 6 years old. How could you NOT know that? If you're that strict of a vegetarian you should have checked the packaging first. YDI.
