No! Gelatin is never vegetarian even if it says kosher it is still made from slaughter by-products
Vegan because animals are not property
It's from animals, so i guess it just depends on the person. I wouldn't but it depends on how strict you are. I'm actually a Pescatarian, where i don't eat land animals, but i eat fish. ( Don' get me wrong I love fish, but it makes it easier for my family to give me protein in this troubled economy). You can if you want to, but it depends on how strict you are.
Gelatin(e) is always, always, always from the bones, hides, and connective tissues of animals (not fat). ALWAYS. If it says gelatin, it's not suitable for vegetarians. Pectin, agar, and carrageenan are all vegan gelling agents, and they will be identified as such.
Gelatine is always from boiled bits of an animal, whether it says pork or beef before it or not.
So, no.
Pectin does a similar job to gelatine but is suitable for vegetarians as it is from fruit.
IF it says Gelatin, it's processed animals. Different spelling may indicate a vegetarian source such as the Gel or Jells spellings. In those cases you are going to have to read the label.
No. I've never even seen it with "pork or beef next to it."
All gelatin is from animals, although there are several vegetarian/vegan alternatives.
I am a vegetarian and I dont eat anything that contains Gelatine darling! Hope I have helped to answer your question!
Vegetarian forever!!!!
Unless it specifies that it is vegetarian, it comes from an animal. Unspecified almost undoubtedly means it comes from an animal.
See the link below for what to look for on the label.

Even if gelatin is not specified as pork or beef (or fish), it still comes from an animal.
Gelatine is animal
PALEO
Gelatin is always from animal bones and fat.
No, it still comes from an animal even if it doesn't specify what kind.
No, it's still gelatin. It's made from bones as well.
No.
One word, Agar and it is not from animals, seaweed?
