Gummy bears and gelatin gross you out? How 'bout Surimi - as in imitation crab legs, etc.
They take Pacific whiting or pollock, mince it, wash it, then heat it so it gels, and add ingredients like Sorbitol, sugar, polyphosphate, protease inhibitor, water, salt, coloring, and flavoring, then extrude it under pressure, and steam it, resulting in a product that stays together as if natural. Oh, yummmmm. -Ben P.S. re: gelatin - there was quite a flap some time back when Jewish and Muslim groups discovered the coating used on the inside of a lot of vegetable cans to protect the metal from acid in the food was a pork-based gelatin. <sigh> ______________________________________________________________________ Signup for the Fusion Authority news alert and keep up with the latest news in ColdFusion and related topics. http://www.fusionauthority.com/signup.cfm Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-community@houseoffusion.com/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
