Well I know marshmallows have gelatin in them so it must be that the
gelatin is made from pig's bones. I know it uses bones but just never
knew from which animal.

Some marshmallows may use pork (or other animal) gelatin.

You can buy gelatin free marshmallows - I find them at the 7th Day Adventist
grocery store in Glendale, CA. Once in awhile I've seen them in "health
food" stores, but not often for some reason. The gelatin free ones do very
well on a stick over a fire for s'mores!

I wish I could find marshmallow creme (the stuff you get in a jar) that is
vegan. Anyone seen that?

What brand are these marshmallows? I wasn't aware of any new brands that
are vegetarian. Emes made some vegan ones using a vegetarian "gelatin" of
carageenan, but the company went out of business. I'm aware of other brands
that are made with "kosher" gelatin, which is not vegetarian.
I used to purchase Emes at our local ABC store too and actually still have
some bags saved. The manager of the store warned me that they had the last of
them.
Thanks!
