No, not directly. The main ingredients are sugar and/or corn syrup, water, and Gelatin. However, the gelatin used in marshmallows is derived from the skin and bones of cattle, including pigs. If you keep Kosher, several companies do make kosher gelatin, which is made with no pig by-products.
Are there any brands of marshmellows that are not made from pork geletine
Marshmallows may contain gelatin. Gelatin is made from animal byproducts (ears, bones, etc) and so some pork may be there.
is there pork in marshmellow
There is gelatin which is made of pork.
it does depend because, some people are vegetarian and they don't eat pork or any meat. so in marshmallows it does depend on what sort of marshmallow. and is it really appropriate for camping.
They may contain pork gelatin.
Yes they do. All General Mills cereals with marshmallows in them have pork.
No..... anything with Marshmallows are though
well, check at the back, if in the ingredients it says contains gelatin, if its beef gelatin, its okay, but if its pig, or pork gelatin, its haram. but if it only says gelatin, then call the number at the back and ask them for yourself! 12/30/2010: After confirming with Kraft Foods Canada, the Gelatin in these marshmallows are indeed Pork based.
Gelatine is in marshmallows. Gelatine can be bovine (from cows) or porcine (from pigs); it is a gelling agent formed by boiling up the bones from pig or cow carcasses (but it is completely neutral in taste). Gelatine is also what sets Jell-o, most gummy sweets and some forms of cake icing.
Not meat, but they contain gelatin, an animal byproduct that is also present in meat. As almost all commercially available marshmallows contain gelatin, they cannot be considered vegan. However, a few brands do not contain animal gelatin, and the original recipe (using the whipped sap of the "marsh mallow" mucilaginous plant), indeed, contained no animal byproducts.
No it does not have any pork in it.
The jiffy all purpose baking mix have any pork or pork oil
All vegan marshmallows - which contain no animal products and as such are parve - are kosher so long as they are kosher certified. The majority of kosher marshmallows on the market are made from fish gelatin which are also parve. Please see the related link for some brands of kosher marshmallows.
Chocolate seldom has any meat (especially pork) in it.
There is no pig fat in marshmallows. However, there is gelatin, which is obtained from animal bones and hooves. So marshmallows are not vegetarian.
