Answers: Bone char is used from murdered animals bones that is chemicalized into a white dust and mixed with the sugar cane like in candies, soda's, and other food and drink products. Then their are other investigative sources such as medical dental tootpaste bone char, charcoal bone char, and bone char is used to remove fluoride from water and to filter aquarium water. A safe alternative for vegetarians would be organic water and to use parve/kosher sugar products would you agree?

Wow, that's disgusting!!!! I had no idea.
I love eating kosher food b/c I know the quality is very high.
yes!!
No I didn't know that. Do you call it murder when an animal kills another in the wild?
Did you just see the cane and sugar beet show I did on TV? lol
no, but it sure tastes good.
Believe it or not I did know this, and do You know what... I don't care!! If you're a vegan that's your decision, and I respect it, but I'm a meat eater... large steaks, char-broiled and served blood rare. To each his own.
Like most fanatics, you obviously did not read the Wikipedia entry but only the bits that you wanted. I call it idiotic, fanatical ignorance, or truth blindness. The entry in Wikipedia states that the sugar is filtered through the bone char, which does not get in to the sugar which can then be considered parve/kosher and how the heck do you get "organic" water.
i agree
Bone char is black, not white, and it's not "mixed with the sugar cane".
Even some tap water has been exposed to bone char.
Get yourself some turbinado (raw) sugar, evaporated cane juice, rapadura, Sucanat, or beet sugar, and you won't have to worry about the bone char issue.
