Best Answer

Gelatin is typically made from pork (skin/bones), therefore it is considered a protein. Vegans do not consume gelatin because of this. Other stabilizers such as agar (a thickener made from seaweed), tapioca, rice and potato starches can be used in some of the same applications as gelatin, but adjustments as to the amount and type of stabilizer used (as well as in what food application) should be made.
