I received this mail concerning my posting about kosher gelatin. I
did not know of the controversy concerning Dannon's use of the term
"kosher gelatin". I have seen "kosher gelatin" used as a name for agar
in the past and I presumed Beatrice used it because it sounded better than
agar-agar.
I guess my response to Susan's posting should have been more on the line
of "why would you want to icky fruit flavored yogurt when you can
add the fruit yourself and it's much better".
Sorry if I aided and abetted anyone's violation of kosher or vegetarianism.

Isn't it interesting how the beautiful little red flower in the forest
becomes so ugly when you discover it's a candy wrapper.
I missed the conclusion here: when does "gelatin" mean "agar", and
when does it mean "made from dead animals" ? Or is the conclusion
that we have no conclusion ?
