girl 21 . yes darling thats what the phrase "did you know" and the question mark is all about ;-) was kind of hoping somebody would add to my limited understanding.


Answers:

Yes, sadly, its true. Furthermore, most alcohol, including wine is "fined" with gelatine (made from the boiled bones, skins, ligaments and tendons of slaughtered cows and pigs) and egg shells, as well as the isinglas from fish bladders. The sad fact is that dead animal by products are in almost ALL commercial products. Try making your own homemade brews, such as wine and beer. Its a fun hobby, and you get full control of the ingredients. Dont be so sure about the bottled stuff-it often contians the finings too, and does not need to be labeled if the final products contains less than 2 percent of unlisted ingredients.
