    Since its Halloween....

    And I'm going to get my candy tonight, I was wondering if anyone new some candy that has Gelatin in it. I know a few like, gummy bears and starbursts but since some candy doesn't have ingreidiants on it I just want to be sure.

    Thanks in advance!

    P.S.
    Does twizzlers? I was offered some but I had to turn it down since I wasn't sure. Oh and what about tootsie rolls and such?

    Twizzlers ingredients: corn syrup, flour, sugar, cornstarch, partially hydrogenated soybean oil 2% or less, salt 2% or less, artificial flavorings 2% or less, citric acid 2% or less, potassium sorbate 2% or less (a preservative), artificial coloring 2% or less. Includes Red 40.

    Tootsie Rolls: Sugar, corn syrup, partially hydrogenated soybean oil, condensed skim milk, cocoa, whey, soy lecithin, orange extract, artificial and condensed flavors.

    To be sure you aren't getting any gelatin it might be better to get something chocolate, Snickers, Mliky Way, etc. Unless you don't like or can't have chocolate or peanuts or anything like that of course.

    Just as a precaution, remember that much of the chocolate coming from China could have melamine in it. So if it isn't a well-known brand of chocolate that you know where it came from, it might be safer not to eat it.

    Hey, just a fyi. Jelly beans often have gelatin in them. But Jelly Bellies brand doesn't.
