Do sour patch kids go against by vegetarian diet?
No, in fact, Sour Patch Kids are vegetarian-friendly. They do not contain gelatin- which is a common ingredient in chewy candies such as Skittles, Starbursts, Gummy Bears, etc. Glucose is something entirely different. It’s basically a sugar molecule- and it is a vegetarian-friendly ingredient. Gelatin is ground up hooves, bones, ligaments, etc. from animals. The body parts are usually waste products from animals that were slaughtered for meat. Here is a listing for candies that do not contain animal slaughter ingredients. http://www.peta.org/accidentallyVegan/Ve… Be sure to read food labels carefully. Yogurts, Jello, marshmallows, rice crispy treats, Pop Tarts, candies, custards, pies, may or may not contain gelatin.
