Answers:
They use cow hooves, pig skin, and fish bones and turn it into a powdery substance called gelatin (aka gelatine and kosher gelatin)!.

Yes, gelatin is in gummy bears and jello!.
If you really care about animals, and want to stop eating product with gelatin in them, read the list below!. If you're afraid to find out that your favorite foods (mostly candy) has gelatin, do not read the list below!.

Gummy bears
Jello
Skittle (with the exception of the chocolate type)
Starburst
Most yogurts (Silk Soy Yogurt is vegan and has no gelatin)
marshmallows
Some ice cream (not most)
Capsules found on over-the-counter pills
Shells of paintballs
Jr!. Mints
Trifles
Frosted cerial
Frosted Pop-Tarts (They aren't worth it anyway-- 2= 40 calories)
And just about every other gooey food!.

Gummy candies are often made with gelatin, which is from the bones, connective tissues, and hides of slaughtered animals (sometimes cows, sometimes pigs, sometimes fish)!. Jello is pure gelatin with some flavoring!. They're definitely NOT vegetarian, if that's what you're asking!.

Swedish Fish and Sour Patch Kids are two gummy-type candies that are vegan and available at conventional stores!. There's also a natural foods company, Edward and Sons, that makes vegan gummy bears, but those are a little harder to find!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Yes!. They have this big machine where cows walk in one end and gummy bears or jelly beans come out the other end depending on the settings!. I think the company that make it is called Acme!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
