Why Choose Gelatin-Free Vegan Gummy Candy?

Gelatin is usually obtained from the bones and flesh of cows, pigs, or fish—animals who are someone, not something, and don’t want to be killed for candy. Cows, for instance, form strong family bonds. Pigs are highly intelligent and have even been known to decorate their homes with flowers. Fish have impressive long-term memories and use complex languages to communicate with each other. All these animals deserve to live in peace.
