Best Answer - Chosen by Voters

Its made from collagen
Ingredients

1. gelatin
2. water
3. sugar or artificial sweetener and artificial flavors
4. food coloring
Gelatin is just a processed version of a structural protein called collagen that is found in many animals, including humans. Collagen actually makes up almost a third of all the protein in the human body. It is a big, fibrous molecule that makes skin, bones, and tendons both strong and somewhat elastic. As you get older, your body makes less collagen, and individual collagen fibers become crosslinked with each other. You might experience this as stiff joints (from less flexible tendons) or wrinkles (from loss of skin elasticity).

Jello is primarily gelatin, which is a product from animal parts like horse hoofs.

If that grosses you out, or you are a vegetarian/vegan, look for Pectin-based jell-o type products. Pectin comes from fruits such as apples.

Kool-Aid, water, sugar, and Bill Cosby.

I know that when you boil the hooves of pig or cows,You get gelatin. I'm sure that the Jello company adds food coloring and tons of sugar.
