Jell-O or Cow Bones?
My friends and I were talking about what Jell-O is made from today. My one friend came up with this crazy thought of it being created using grinded up cow bones. Personaly, in my mind “What the hell is this kid drinking?”. Later tonight I went on wikipedia to find out if this fact was true.
 To my surprise! It was true!
The gelatin in Jell-O comes from the collagen in cow or pig bones and connective tissues. To make gelatin, manufacturers grind up these various parts and pre-treat them with either a strong acid or a strong base to break down cellular structures and release proteins like collagen.
 I will never look at Jell-O the same way. Doesn’t matter to me though, still tastes good.
