Gelatin is not Jelly.


Yes, gelatin is from animal hooves. Yes, it is collagen.

But Jelly and Jello are not the same thing.

Jelly is made with fruit and sugar. That's it. You cook it, strain it and the clear stuff sets by means of the pectin in the fruit.

Pectin and collagen are not the same thing.

Collagen comes from animals and pectin comes from plants.

Curiously enough, this was the most annoying part of the movie, the dog constantly on the hunt for red jello but calling it jelly. And why red? Because he needs red dye #5?
