RE:

Why can't vegetarians eat gelatin?

Someone said in one of their questions that they can't eat gelatin because they are a vegetarian. What is in gelatin that makes it inedible to vegetarians?

"Pesco vegetarians" are imaginary so they can't eat anything. If someone wanted to be a "pescetarian" they could eat whatever they want as they just make up their own 'rules'. If you eat fish or dairy or eggs, gelatin is not going to make any difference to any animals.

I'm vegetarian, not vegan, and I don't eat gelatin. It's made from animal connective tissue.

Skittles in the USA do contain gelatin but European Skittles do not (apparently):

Gelatin is really the collagen from the hooves, bones, connective tissues, organs, and some intestines of animals such as cows, pigs, and fish.

Gelatin is in seemingly innocuous things like Skittles, Starburst, gummy bears, Altoids, marshmallows, as well as Jell-O.

no people are wrong, vegetarians DO NOT eat gelatin if you eat gelatin you are not vegetarian, gelatin basically comes from animal bones, so they dont eat it becuase you still have to kill an animal to get gelitan, vegans on the other hand dont eat any animal products whether they directly or indirectly lead to animal harm,

Veganheathen is wrong about Skittles, they do not contain gelatin.

Usually it's made from the insideof a pigs stomach or something to that effect. But sometimes they can use seaweed as a gelling agent, which is ok to eat I believe.
