Is it true gelatin (Jello) is made from decaying animal hides? | |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 989174 United States 08/29/2010 09:50 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | [link to www.rense.com] Gelatin Without BSE-Infectivity can ONLY be produced from healthy animals The agents of scrapie and BSE are extremely resistant to physical and chemical influences. Compared with the conditions during gelatin production, in experiments they withstood an acidity, which was ten times as high, an alkaline concentration twenty times as high and a drying temperature that was about 220°C higher. As the procedures of gelatin production can not be tightened up without significant losses of yield and quality, gelatin can only be produced safely from healthy animals. In order to get a reliable test for the agent in man, animal, and raw material, it has to be shown, whether the altered prion protein is identical with the agent. Therefore a simple experiment has been proposed, by which the prion theory can be proved or refuted within a few days. Gelatin is everywhere Gelatin is a primary product with an extraordinary wide field of application, used for quality improvement of innumerable foodstuffs and medicaments. It serves for supplementary source of protein, carrier material, bonding agent, stabiliser and emulsifier. It is also used as an aid for frothing up, flavour enhancement, common salt replacement, clearing of drinks and as a collagen source for dietetics. It can be found in jelly, jellied meat and aspic, in ice cream, some margarines, sweets like gummy bears, soft caramels, marshmallows, meringues, liquorice and cream-filled chocolate cakes, in gateau fillings and desserts, in milk products like yoghurt and crmes as well as in pies and convenience food. Cream and foam are often made of jelly with beaten egg white, whipped cream or cream cheese. |

To think they give this shit to small childeren is really sick. And it's not only cows infact most used for soft candy is pig hide! As the world surrenders to tyranny will you do the same thing? Will you be able to stand your ground without faith? Think about it! |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 491785thats glue, not gelatin. gelatin is made from cooking down cow bones. You are right!!!!! Dear God I thought I was eating horse hooves all this time as well! Now I am gonna be sick... ...boiled bones, connective tissues, organs and some intestines of animals such as domesticated cattle, pigs, and horses... ewww.... I would rather eat glue. |
Woodsprite User ID: 1082174 United States 08/30/2010 03:42 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Wow, I knew it was made out of pretty gross stuff, but had no idea it was made from hides. I always thought it was made from hoofs and stuff like that. I figured the hides went to the Leather industry, to be turned into clothes, shoes, boots, belts. Kinda gives me an understanding why starving Pioneers would eat their shoes and belts..apparently there is Protein in there! I never have been a huge Jell-O person, but I do like to make homemade candy, and I have several recipes that call for plain gelatin powder....looks like they are gonna hit the trash...LOL.. |

Just shows what a bunch of numpties most people are, putting stuff into their bodies without having a clue what it is. What is wrong with extracting gelatin from the by products of cows and pigs? What do you think you are doing when you make stock for soups and gravies? |

Dr. House User ID: 717743 United States 08/30/2010 04:17 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Gelatin making is a lot cleaner than folk would have you believe. A vat of lime is 'dead' and near sudden death for rats and insects. Some bacteria may thrive in lime, but if they thrive in lime they most likely will not do well in a 'normal' environment. Liming hide and other things to render out its usefulness has been in practice for generations. Think Gelatin is bad, wait until you find out the process by which leather is tanned. Back on the farm we rendered fat for tallow, and also made our own lye by the egg method from whence came our soap. We also boiled down hides for gelatin, and we also "gathered" together our own rennet for cheese making. [link to www.ask.com] We also tanned the hides, not just the occasional cow we slaughtered at home, but the smaller critters like rabbit, squirrel, deer, opossum and even a few raccoons. Oh and be the way we also ate the meat from those critters that we hunted as well. If you are grossed out about Jello, which is far cleaner when it is packaged being sterilized via heat in the process, then please don't bother eating eggs (these are often covered in chicken poo), don't bother eating meat after all the things that we feed to the animal plus the wonderful life they spend on a stinking, rat infested, insect infested farm, or for that matter do not find out about how much bug parts are allowed in the processing of Peanut butter.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 989174 United States 08/30/2010 11:49 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The real concern over gelatin is not how gross the process is, it's the fact that if the gelatin is made of infected cow brains and other parts then feeding that to your children could cause health issues down the line. [link to factoidz.com] In more recent years the concerns about the source of the hides and other animal by-products used in gelatin have risen since the emergence of Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathy (“TSE,”) the ‘prion disease’ that are a group of conditions that affect the nervous system of both animals and humans. “Prions” refer to an infectious agent of proteins, mainly affecting and relegated to the brain and nervous tissues. The incurable, always fatal diseases of BSE (Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy) called ‘mad cow disease’ and the human equivalent Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease ("CJD") belong to this TSE group. Careful consideration must be used in determining the health of the animal and thus, whether or not to use the by-products derived from it in the production of gelatin. The emergence of BSE may have begun with just one sick cow which died and was rendered into protein slurry and fed to other cattle. This is an old and oft-used practice that is now banned in many countries. Prions (infected protein product) cannot be transmitted through the air, but it is infectious so touching or handling (as well as eating) the infected product can spread the disease. Boiling, cooking or other heat-intensive sterilization and even irradiation measures are ineffective against prion diseases. So maybe the sects that refuse to consume or use any product that contains gelatin manufacturing aid may have been right all along. While far from being a vegetarian or even conscientious objector in principle to the eating of animal flesh, I am beginning to have a difficult time imagining ever eating Jell-O again without wondering about the safety of the animal-based gelatin used therein. |
BRIEF AND TO THE POINT User ID: 381742 United States 08/30/2010 11:59 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Ground up hooves and toenails, but look what you can do with it! Poor people do poor people things, and rich people do rich people things. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it! when you rob Paul to give to Peter ... ... ... you will always get Peters support! :Brieffromnativea: |
